Staging your changes in the cloud

If you want to see your changes staged without having to install anything locally, change your fork of our repo to be named:

YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME.github.io

Then, visit: http://YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME.github.io

You should see a special-to-you version of the site.

Editing and staging the site locally

If you have files to upload, or just want to work offline, run the below commands to setup your environment for running GitHub pages locally. Then, any edits you make will be viewable on a lightweight webserver that runs on your local machine.

First install rvm

\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

Then load it into your environment

source /Users/(USERNAME)/.rvm/scripts/rvm (or whatever is prompted by the installer)

Then install Ruby 2.2 or higher

rvm install 2.2
rvm use 2.2 --default

Verify that this new version is running (optional)

which ruby
ruby -v

Install the GitHub Pages package, which includes Jekyll

gem install github-pages

Clone our site

git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.github.io.git

Then, see it run locally:

cd kubernetes.github.io
jekyll serve .

Your copy of the site will then be viewable at: http://0.0.0.0:4000 (or wherever Ruby tells you).

If you're a bit rusty with git/GitHub, you might wanna read this for a refresher.

The above instructions work on Mac and Linux. These instructions might help for Windows users.

Thank you!

Kubernetes thrives on community participation and we really appreciate your contributions to our site and our documentation!
