Search

We are using Algolia docsearch for our CE documentation search. The algolia index is maintained by Algolia through their docsearch service. Their scraper runs every 24 hours. The config used by the scraper is open source for docs.konghq.com and can be found here. To update the scraper config, you can submit a pull request to the config. To test a config change locally, you will need to run their open source scraper against your own scraper to test out config changes.

Generating the Plugin Development Kit documentation

  • Have a local clone of Kong
  • Install Luarocks (comes with Kong)
  • Install ldoc using Luarocks: luarocks install ldoc 1.4.6
  • In the Kong repository, checkout the desired branch/tag/release
  • Run: KONG_PATH=path/to/your/kong/folder KONG_VERSION=0.14.x gulp pdk-docs
  • This command will attempt to:
    • Obtain an updated list of modules from your local PDK and put it inside your nav file
    • Generate documentation for all the modules in your PDK (where possible) and put in a folder inside your version docs

Generating the Admin API Documentation

  • Make sure that resty is in your $PATH (installing kong installs resty as well)
  • Several luarocks are needed. Easiest way to get all of them is to execute make dev in the kong folder
  • Have a local clone of Kong
  • In the Kong repository, checkout the desired branch/tag/release
  • Run: KONG_PATH=path/to/your/kong/folder KONG_VERSION=0.14.x gulp admin-api-docs
  • This command will attempt to:
    • Compare Kong's schemas and Admin API routes with the contents of the file autodoc-admin-api/data.lua and error out if there's any mismatches or missing data.
    • If no errors were found, a new admin-api.md file will be generated in the path corresponding to the provided KONG_VERSION.

Listing Your Extension in the Kong Hub

We encourage developers to list their Kong plugins and integrations (which we refer to collectively as "extensions") in the Kong Hub, with documentation hosted on the Kong website for ready access.
