Usermanual

This is both the source documentation and build system for the Aria Templates Usermanual. It consists of:

Sources files for the usermanual documentation (located in src/)
A build system to generate this content (located at build.js)
A mediawiki extractor to convert documentation from a wiki installation to markdown files (located in mediawikiextractor/)
A local Express test server to be able to review your changes locally (located at test.js)

After you clone this repo, remember you have to install the dependencies. Call:

$ npm install

Running a Build

You should update documentation files inside the src folder, and run the build using this command:

$ node build

Launching the test server

$ node test // and follow instructions

Anytime your build a new version of the documentation, you can test your changes using the test server. Just open a browser on http://localhost:8000/ and navigate to your page.

Hooks

Note that this repository uses a git commit hook. Any pushes or merges into the master branch rebuilds all versions of the documentation on the website.

Rolling out a new version

Anytime a new version of the documentation is rolled out (ie for each new ariatemplates version) there are few operations to perform on this repository

Copy /src/latest/ to /src/<% new version here %>/
Do the same for /resources/articles/navigationbar/latest.md

Edit /resources/articles/versionList.jade to add the new version (have a look at the bottom of th efile)

from

...
mixin version("1.3.6", true)
mixin version("1.3.5")
mixin version("1.3.4")

...
mixin version("<% new version here %>", true)
mixin version("1.3.6")
mixin version("1.3.5")
mixin version("1.3.4")

Push your changes, the hook will rebuild the whole documentation base
