How i can publish help for more then one .m files simultaneously?

I have more then 100 m files. Now i want to publish help for them. Publishing help for each individual will take a lot of time. But i want to publish help for all files simultaneously. so it saves my time. is there any way i can do this?

waiting for quick response.

thanks in advance.

Do you mean that you want to publish your code similar to http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_prog/publishing-matlab-code.html? Has your code been formatted as per this link?

Yes my code has proper formatting i am just asking by simply clicking on publish button i can publish only help for one m file. But is there any way that i can publish help for more than one files simultaneously as publishing help for each single file will take a lot of time for publishing help for 1000 of m files.

You could write a script that would get a list of all your m files and then use the publish command on each file in that list. See http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/publish.html for details.

Just in case, I added a simple script, like it is suggested above.

You have to create a script "scriptPublishing.m", copy the code and execute it in your working directory, where you .m-files are located. It will generate a folder "latex" with the future .tex-files in it. Furhter options can be changed and additional options can turned on. The loop checks the folder for .m-files.

function scriptPublishing

close all; clear; clc;

% Publishing directory

mkdir latex

% Publishing options

options.format = 'latex';

options.outputDir = 'latex\';

options.evalCode = false;

options.catchError = false;

options.codeToEvaluate = false;

options.showCode = true;

% Publishing through folder

listing = dir;

[listingFiles,~] = size(listing);

for i = 1:listingFiles

mFileName = listing(i).name;

if exist(mFileName) == 2 % check if file with extension

[~,~,ext] = fileparts(mFileName);

if isequal(ext,'.m') % check if .m-file

publish(mFileName,options);

end

end

end

end
