This project uses Node.js, DocFX and Gulp to generate a documentation for Indigo Design.

1. DocFX
2. Node.js

In macOS You can use brew to install the latest version of DocFX:

brew install docfx

For Windows based platforms use chocolatey:

choco install docfx

If you are using npm, run:

npm install

If you are using yarn, run:

yarn install

Start your command-line shell (CMD, PowerShell, Bash, etc.) with elevated permissions ("Run As Administrator" in Windows). This is required by Chocolatey, for further information read point 1 from here.

The build process depends on the environment variable NODE_ENV to be able to set the correct URL for the Angular Samples. Assign either development, staging, or production to NODE_ENV.

You can create a .env file under the root of the project and set NODE_ENV, for instance, by assigning environment.

NODE_ENV=development

Additionally, you can configure the URLs for all three environments development, staging, and production by editing the 'node_modules/igniteui-docfx-template/post-processors/PostProcessors/EnvironmentVariables/preconfig.json' file and setting the respective URLs in the variables object.

To start the server, run:

for English:

npm start -- --lang en

for Japansese:

npm start -- --lang jp

The command takes an adittional argument --lang [ en | jp ] to serve either the English or Japanese version.

Note: if you get an error when starting the server, it could be related to this bug. Please run choco install docfx --version 2.26.4.0 --force for a working project.

For instance, for English:

npm run build -- --lang en

For the Japanese version:

npm run build -- --lang jp

The build script produces a folder called _site at the root of the respective project. For instance, for English, the static site lives under en/_site;

The build command is very similar to the beforementioned step. To build the site for staging, run:

npm run build-staging --lang en

The build command for staging is:

npm run build-production --lang jp
