How to make docset on Linux?

Question

I use Zeal to lookup API documentation on Linux. It requires files to be in the Apple docset format.

I have C++ code for which I can generate documentation using Doxygen. Doxygen can build a docset, but it requires the docsetutil program, which is not available on Linux.

Is there any other method to create a docset of a C++ codebase on Linux?

Answer 1

"No need for docsetutil if you're generating a Dash-only docset," suggests the developer of Dash. Likewise according to the Dash documentation, you need the following entries in the Doxygen config file to generate the docset (the last 3 are optional):

GENERATE_DOCSET   = YES
DISABLE_INDEX     = YES 
SEARCHENGINE      = NO
GENERATE_TREEVIEW = NO
