## Running the server for writing new articles
|
||||
Welcome! This is the Pagure instance for the Fedora Package Maintainer Docs.
|
||||
|
||||
Running the pelican development server is useful when writing new articles. The steps to
|
||||
get it running are:
|
||||
The Pagure repository is used to store the source of Package Maintainer Docs,
|
||||
track related issues
|
||||
and accept changes via pull requests.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install pelican:
|
||||
````
|
||||
sudo dnf install python2-pelican python2-GitPython
|
||||
python-beautifulsoup4 rubygem-asciidoctor
|
||||
````
|
||||
You can view the actual packaging guidelines
|
||||
[here](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/).
|
||||
|
||||
2. Check out the packagin docs source (from your fork or the main repo)
|
||||
3. In the main folder of the checked out repo, run `./develop_server.sh start`
|
||||
and your local copy of the Docs Fedora will be at http://localhost:8000/
|
||||
4. To stop the development server, run `./develop_server.sh stop`
|
||||
## Documentation Development
|
||||
|
||||
### Writing
|
||||
|
||||
[Antora](https://antora.org/) is used for
|
||||
managing the various documents which comprise the guidelines
|
||||
and integrating them into the rest of Fedora Documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
The guidelines themselves are written in
|
||||
[AsciiDoc](https://asciidoc.org).
|
||||
Some useful information about AsciiDoc can be found below:
|
||||
|
||||
* [AsciiDoc Syntax Quick Reference](https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-syntax-quick-reference/)
|
||||
* [AsciiDoc Writer's Guide](https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-writers-guide/)
|
||||
|
||||
### Conventions and Preferences
|
||||
|
||||
This repository attempts to follow the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* Use [Semantic Line Breaks](http://sembr.org/) to make diffing simpler.
|
||||
* Prefer `https://example.com[here]` over `link:https://example.com[here]`
|
||||
* Prefer `[#some-ref]` over `[[some-ref]]`
|
||||
|
||||
### 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 repositories,
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ./build.sh && ./preview.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
