Reacli landing website

The documentation is written thanks to the GoHugo framework.

See here to understand how it is possible to integrate a GoHugo website into Github Pages.

The current repository contains the sources of the documentation website, and the built files (in the public folder) are directly pushed on the master branch of the reacli.github.io repository.

Write the docs

Understand the GoHugo framework

To understand how to work with the GoHugo framework, please refer to the official documentation.

You will have to install it on your machine, and will then be able to use the GoHugo CLI that facilitates the creation of new pages, chapters...

Configure the global website

The global configuration of the website is editable in the config.toml file. Please refer to the official documentation to understand how it works.

We also decided to use the learn theme. Please refer to its documentation to understand its functioning. It also explains how you can customize the website according to the chosen theme.

Launch the local server

Writing the documentation is quite simple, thanks to the hot-reload functionnality. To launch a local server, run the following command:

hugo serve

You will then be able to connect to http://localhost:1313. When the server detects changes in your website sources, it will automatically reload the website.

You can finally stop the local server with CTRL + C.

Documentation content

When using the CLI to create new components, chapters... it will create new folders in the content/ directory. The markdown files in this folder correspond to the content of the website.

Build the docs

Once you are satisfied with the documentation you wrote, you can generate the bundle files of the landing website with the following commands:

rm -rf public/ # delete the previous bundle files
hugo -t learn # the theme to be used for the build site

It will regenerate the public/ folder which contains the bundle files of the website.

Important: we configured a git submodule on the public folder, by running the following command:

git submodule add -b master https://github.com/reacli/reacli.github.io.git public

Precisely, when doing a commit/push on the current repository, the content of the public/ folder (the bundle files) will be pushed directly on the master branch of the reacli.github.io repository.

Deploy the docs

To upgrade the documentation website, after having built the public/ folder (see here), you can simply run the following command:

./deploy.sh "feat: my commit message"

In the previous command, we redeployed the bundled files on the master branch of the reacli.github.io repository. The argument corresponds to the commit message that will be pushed on the reacli.github.io repository.

Please refer to conventional commits to understand how to write your commit messages.
