Documentation Site

This directory contains the configuration required to build and deploy the documentation site as well as the continuous deployment configuration that pushes a rebuilt copy of the documentation after every commit.

Documentation Builder

In order to speed up the deployment there is a GCR image (gcr.io/active-premise-257318/builder) that contains all of the project's python requirements pre-installed. This cuts the deployment from several minutes to around twenty seconds. To rebuild and deploy the image use the deploy-builder.sh script.

Update Hugo version

The Hugo version is defined by variable HUGO_EXTENDED_VERSION in util/build_docs.py. To ensure syntax highlighting is working correctly the CSS stylesheet must be updated following a version update.

Update CSS stylesheet

Setting the option noClasses = false for [markup.highlight] in site/docs/config.toml requires a stylesheet to be available. This option is used in order to have two styles for light and dark mode of the documentation site. The stylesheet is stored in site/docs/assets/scss/_chroma.scss. Update the style if the Hugo version is changed:

  • Replace the content of [data-user-color-scheme='light'] with the output of hugo gen chromastyles --style=colorful, but keep the first line containing the setting of the background.

  • Replace the content of [data-user-color-scheme='dark'] with the output of hugo gen chromastyles --style=dracula, but keep the first line containing the setting of the background.
