Searchable, offline Erlang documentation?

Tags:

erlang

Is there a place I can download an easily searchable copy of the Erlang documentation, so that I can use it while I'm on a long flight, for example?

If you use linux, feel free to try erl -man ModuleName, e.g. erl -man erlang

I didn't check on Linux or OSX, but on windows you have a copy of the documentation in the doc directory of your installation. If ERL is the place where Erlang is installed, you will find the root of the documentation at ERL/doc/index.html

You can try generate offline documentation http://erlang.org/doc/installation_guide/INSTALL.html use

$ make docs

Also, you can go to the official Erlang site https://www.erlang.org/downloads, select Erlang version in section Available releases, find in loaded page the link HTML Documentation File and download archive. Аfter unpacking archiveб go to otp_doc_html_X > doc > index.html
