Contributing

We are happy to hear your feedback. Please read our contributing guidelines and the code of conduct before you submit a pull request or open a ticket.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Docker

We recommend using Docker to build and test the documentation. Running via Docker is only required if you plan to make changes to the styling or layout of the site.

For content related changes and fixes, it's easiest to use GitHub's File Edit UI to make the changes and create the pull request.

Setup

The first step is cloning and going into the repository.

git clone [email protected]:codeship/documentation.git
cd documentation

Then build the container and save it as a tagged image.

docker build --tag codeship/documentation .

You can now run commands via that container. By default, it will build the site and start the Jekyll development server.

docker run -it --rm -p 4000:4000 -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation

To access the site open http://IP_OF_YOUR_DOCKER_SERVER:4000 in your browser. Usually, this is localhost:4000.

On Windows, the Docker commands are executed via the Docker Quickstart Terminal. If localhost doesn't work, you might have to open a normal command prompt and type docker-machine ls. There you can take the IP that is listed under URL and type the IP (with port 4000) into your browser to reach the documentation.

Development

Updating dependencies

To update Rubygem based dependencies, update the Gemfile (if required) and run

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation bundle update

For NPM based dependencies, run the following two commands

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation yarn upgrade

Linting

SCSS

SCSS files are automatically linted using scss-lint. To run it, execute the following command

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation bundle exec scss-lint

It's configured in .scss-lint.yml and the default configuration is available online as well.

JSON

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation gulp lint

Jekyll

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/docs codeship/documentation bundle exec jekyll doctor

Markup

Table of contents

If you want to include a table of contents, include the following snippet in the markdown file

* include a table of contents
{:toc}

URL Helpers

Tags

Generate a URL for the specified tag (database in the example below). This function is also available as a filter and can be used with a variable (tag in the example).

{% tag_url databases %}
{{ tag | tag_url }}

generates the output as follows (depending on configuration values):

/tags/databases/

Man Pages

Link to a particular Ubuntu man page. The Ubuntu version currently defaults to Ubuntu Trusty.

{% man_url formatdb %}

generates the following output:

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man1/formatdb.1.html
