A script is available to build the library documentation. If the setup script does not detect that openscad-amu, the development environment used by omdl, is installed, it will download and set it up in local cache director in the current path.

Download the omdl setup script:

$ mkdir tmp && cd tmp
$ wget https://git.io/setup-omdl.bash
$ chmod +x setup-omdl.bash

Fetch and install the latest library distribution:

./setup-omdl.bash --branch-list tags1 --yes --install

A specific version, say v2.9, can be installed using:

./setup-omdl.bash --branch v2.9 --yes --install

View documentation:

$ google-chrome .local/share/OpenSCAD/docs/html/index.html

The html documentation will be installed to the OpenSCAD user library path in a sub-folder 'docs/html'. The above example assumes a Linux OS.
