* WIP - rework update imported docs * Rework tool/doc for updating reference docs This PR reimplement the reference docs generator in Python and fixes some outdated docs and data: - Do docs import using Python because the GoLang version of tool has some following drawbacks: * its not convenient for handling YAML config files * it has to be compiled to binaries to run on different platforms * for every tiny changes you need to compile a new version and check in - The reference docs we use in website are actually not coming directly from `kubernetes/kubernetes`. Most of them come from the `reference-docs` project. The configuration files are thus changed to avoid confusion. - We have changed the location of generated docs so the default configuration files and the docs are updated.
Update imported docs
This script updates the docs files that are generated from other repos. It accepts a YAML file name as its input which can be customized on a per-repo basis.
Requirements
Imported docs must follow these guidelines:
-
Adhere to the Documentation Style Guide.
-
Have
titledefined in the front matter. For example:--- title: Title Displayed in Table of Contents --- Rest of the .md file... -
Be listed somewhere in a file under the
datasubdirectory, for example, thedata/imported.ymlfile. -
Make sure the
PyYAMLpackage is installed:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
pip install PyYAML
Usage
From within this directory, run the following command:
+./update-imported-docs <CONFIG-FILE>
where <CONFIG-FILE> can be any YAML configuration file in this directory.
Configuration file format
Each config file may contain multiple repos that will be imported together. When necessary, you can customize the configuration file by manually editing it. You may create new config files for importing other groups of documents. The following is an example of the YAML configuration file:
repos:
- name: community
remote: https://github.com/kubernetes/community.git
branch: master
files:
- src: contributors/devel/README.md
dst: docs/imported/community/devel.md
- src: contributors/guide/README.md
dst: docs/imported/community/guide.md
Note: generate-command is an optional entry, which can be used to run a
given command or a short script to generate the docs from within a repo.
Fixing Links
To fix relative links within your imported files, set the repo config's
gen-absolute-links property to true. You can find an example of this in
community.yml.
