Local Installation
Prerequisites
-
MacOS or Linux system (untested with Bash on Windows)
-
Gatsby CLI:
npm install -g gatsby-cli
Get the Code
Fork and clone this repository.
git clone https://github.com/pantheon-systems/documentation.gitOr
git@github.com:pantheon-systems/documentation.gitInstall
cd documentation/gatsby
npm install
GitHub Token
We use the gatsby-remark-embed-snippet to use files from GitHub in our docs. Before you can build a local development site, you need to provide a GitHub token to the environment:
-
Log in to GitHub and go to https://github.com/settings/tokens
-
Click Generate new token
-
Give it a name and click the public_repo checkbox, then the Generate Token button at the bottom
-
Copy the token to your clipboard.
-
Create or edit
gatsby/.env.development, and add (replacing $TOKENHASH ):GITHUB_API=$TOKENHASH
Run
cd documentation/gatsby
gatsby develop
You can view the local environment at localhost:8000/. Updates to docs are automatically refreshed in the browser.
Testing
We include several tools to test that new content doesn't break the documentation. Most of these tests are performed automatically by our continuous integration service, but pull requests created from external contributors aren't included in CI tests. If you want to manually test your branch, you can execute the following tests within the Docker container.
Merge Conflicts
To check for merge conflict messages accidentally committed into the docs, run merge_conflicts.sh from scripts.
