FAQPage Schema
How do I add built-in help to 1C objects like processors and reports?▼

To add built-in help to 1C objects, run the add-help script against objects under your project's src directory. This generates Ext/Help.xml and localized HTML pages while updating form metadata.

What is Ext/Help.xml used for in 1C enterprise development?▼

Ext/Help.xml in 1C enterprise development defines the built-in help structure for objects. It contains Page entries for specific languages and links to corresponding HTML files for end-user assistance.

Can I generate multilingual HTML help pages for 1C catalogs and documents?▼

Yes, you can generate multilingual HTML help pages for 1C catalogs and documents by passing the Lang parameter. This creates Help/<Lang>.html files like ru.html for localized in-context assistance.

Does adding help to 1C objects automatically update form metadata?▼

Yes, adding help to 1C objects optionally updates form metadata. The script patches forms to set IncludeHelpInContents to true, exposing the newly generated help pages directly within the forms.

Do I need lxml installed to generate Help.xml files for 1C objects?▼

Yes, you need lxml installed to generate Help.xml files for 1C objects. The add-help.py script depends on lxml to parse and patch the XML metadata structures required for built-in help.
