Upload the doxygen output as artifact from the linux build and use that from the pages job where we combine the static website with our newly build HTML docs. The GitHub actions/download-artefact doesn't work across workflows so we use the other popular one that can do this. The rest of the job is basically copy/paste from the "Static HTML" example GitHub provides. To make this useful as drop-in replacement, replace the one fixed link to the API docs a relative one.

libxkbcommon
libxkbcommon is a keyboard keymap compiler and support library which processes a reduced subset of keymaps as defined by the XKB (X Keyboard Extension) specification. It also contains a module for handling Compose and dead keys and a separate library for listing available keyboard layouts.
Quick Guide
See Introduction to XKB to learn the essentials of XKB.
See Quick Guide for an introduction on how to use this library.
Building
libxkbcommon is built with Meson:
meson setup build
meson compile -C build
meson test -C build # Run the tests.
To build for use with Wayland, you can disable X11 support while still using the X11 keyboard configuration resource files thusly:
meson setup build \
-Denable-x11=false \
-Dxkb-config-root=/usr/share/X11/xkb \
-Dx-locale-root=/usr/share/X11/locale
meson compile -C build
API
While libxkbcommon's API is somewhat derived from the classic XKB API as found
in X11/extensions/XKB.h
and friends, it has been substantially reworked to
expose fewer internal details to clients.
See the API Documentation.
Dataset
libxkbcommon does not distribute a keymap dataset itself, other than for testing purposes. The most common dataset is xkeyboard-config, which is used by all current distributions for their X11 XKB data. More information on xkeyboard-config is available here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/XKeyboardConfig
The dataset for Compose is distributed in libX11, as part of the X locale data.
Relation to X11
See Compatibility notes.
Development
An extremely rudimentary homepage can be found at https://xkbcommon.org
xkbcommon is maintained in git at https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon
Patches are always welcome, and may be sent to either xorg-devel@lists.x.org or wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org or in a GitHub pull request.
Bug reports (and usage questions) are also welcome, and may be filed at GitHub.
