• Blog: We use Jekyll for blog posts.
• API docs: We use raml2html npm package to compile RAML files into HTML files for API docs.
• Docs: We use Docusaurus for new documentation.

Install node packages like raml2html which is needed to compile API docs.

npm install

Install Ruby gems (needed for Jekyll).

bundle config build.eventmachine --with-cppflags=-I$(brew --prefix [email protected])/include
bundle install

We are moving incrementally from Jekyll to Docusaurus. Please install Docusaurus dependencies.

cd docusaurus
npm install

bundle exec jekyll serve --watch --future

It shows a blog post with a future publish date. Now you can preview the blog at http://localhost:4000/.

cd docusaurus
npm start

Raml files for API docs are in the _api directory. You can edit them.

We use raml2html to compile them. If you need to compile API docs manually, you can run the rake task:

bundle exec rake api:generate_docs

Compiled files are in the api directory.

Push to main to have a GitHub Action:

• build Jekyll, Docusaurus (_plugins/docusaurus.rb) and API docs (_plugins/raml2html.rb)
• publish the built files to the gh-pages branch
• deploy to GitHub pages
