# Fedora Docs Template
# Fedora Minimization Objective
This repository contains a minimal source structure for a new Fedora Docs source.
This repo is used for **tickets** regarding the objective, and to store the **documentation** source.
## Structure
See the [**Fedora Minimization Documentation**](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/minimization/) for more information.

## Documentation source
1. Metadata definition.
2. A script that does a local build. Uses docker.
3. A script that shows a preview of the site in a web browser by running a local web server. Uses docker.
4. A definition file for the build script.
5. A "root module of this documentation component". Please read below for an explanation.
6. **Images** to be used on any page.
7. **Menu definition.** Also defines the hierarchy of all the pages.
8. **Pages with the actual content.** They can be also organised into subdirectories if desired.
All content is in an [AsciiDoc format](https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-writers-guide/), stored in the `modules/ROOT/pages` directory. When adding a new page, make sure to add it to the menu definition in `modules/ROOT/nav.adoc` so it shows up.
## Components and Modules
Antora introduces two new terms:
* **Component** — Simply put, a component is a part of the documentation website with its own menu. Components can also be versioned. In the Fedora Docs, we use separate components for user documentation, the Fedora Poject, Fedora council, Mindshare, FESCO, but also subprojects such as CommOps or Modulartity.
* **Module** — A component can be broken down into multiple modules. Modules still share a single menu on the site, but their sources can be stored in different git repositories, even owned by different groups. The default module is called "ROOT" (that's what is in this example). If you don't want to use multiple modules, only use "ROOT". But to define more modules, simply duplicate the "ROOT" directory and name it anything you want. You can store modules in one or more git repositories.
## Local preview
This repo includes scripts to build and preview the contents of this repository.
**NOTE**: Please note that if you reference pages from other repositoreis, such links will be broken in this local preview as it only builds this repository. If you want to rebuild the whole Fedora Docs site, please see [the Fedora Docs build repository](https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/docs-fp-o/) for instructions.
Both scripts work on Fedora (using Podman) and macOS (using Docker).
To build and preview the site, run:
```
$ ./build.sh && ./preview.sh
```
The result will be available at http://localhost:8080
### Installing Podman on Fedora
Fedora Workstation doesn't come with Podman preinstalled by default — so you might need to install it using the following command:
```
$ sudo dnf install podman
```
### Preview as a part of the whole Fedora Docs site
You can also build the whole Fedora Docs site locally to see your changes in the whole context.
This is especially useful for checking if your `xref` links work properly.
To do this, you need to clone the main [Fedora Docs build repository](https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/docs-fp-o), modify the `site.yml` file to reference a repo with your changes, and build it.
Steps:
Clone the main repository and cd into it:
```
$ git clone https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/docs-fp-o.git
$ cd docs-fp-o
```
Find a reference to the repository you're changing in the `site.yml` file, and change it so it points to your change.
So for example, if I made a modification to the Modularity docs, I would find:
```
...
- url: https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/modularity.git
branches:
- master
...
```
And replaced it with a pointer to my fork:
```
...
- url: https://pagure.io/forks/asamalik/fedora-docs/modularity.git
branches:
- master
...
```
I could also point to a local repository, using `HEAD` as a branch to preview the what's changed without the need of making a commit.
**Note:** I would need to move the repository under the `docs-fp-o` directory, because the builder won't see anything above.
So I would need to create a `repositories` directory in `docs-fp-o` and copy my repository into it.
```
...
- url: ./repositories/modularity
branches:
- HEAD
...
```
To build the whole site, I would run the following in the `docs-fp-o` directory.
### Local preview
```
$ ./build.sh && ./preview.sh
```
On Fedora, all you need is to have [Podman](https://podman.io/) installed.
