This repository contains the source code for our https://docs.rackspace.com/support/ website.
The content is written in Goldmark-style Markdown and AsciiDoc. It is generated by Hugo.
To build this site locally, you can either install the dependencies directly on your development machine.
npm i -g netlify-cli
netlify init
netlify build
netlify dev
netlify deployTo build the documentation locally, install Hugo and have the hugo
command available in your PATH. Use Hugo version 0.78 or newer. You can install hugo by using
your system’s package manager. For example, on OSX, type the following command to install hugo
with Homebrew:
brew install hugoFor more information about how to install Hugo, see Hugo installation documentation.
The documentation build also requires the Asciidoctor Ruby package to process .adoc files. To
avoid having to install Ruby packages as the root user (with sudo), add the following lines to the
.bashrc (for Bash Shell) or .zshenv (for Z Shell) in your home directory:
export GEM_HOME=$HOME/.gem
if [ -d $GEM_HOME ]; then \
export PATH=$GEM_HOME:$PATH; fiCreate the ~/.gem directory:
mkdir -p $HOME/.gemLog in and log out (or source the environment file you changed previously) to pick up the changes.
Now, install Asciidoctor:
make install
Build your content locally and check for build errors before submitting a pull request.
-
Change directory to the root directory of your document repository.
-
Type the following command:
netlify buildTo preview documents in a web browser such as Chrome, start the Hugo server on your device.
Hugo has a live serve command that runs a small, lightweight web server on your computer so you can
test your site locally without needing to upload it anywhere. As you make changes to files in your project,
it rebuilds your project and reloads the browser for you.
To start the Hugo server, perform the following steps:
-
Change directory to the root directory of your document repository.
-
Run the following command:
netlify dev
The Hugo server displays some messages while it starts up. The last line should be:
Web Server is available at http://localhost:1313/ (bind address 127.0.0.1)
Press Ctrl+C to stop
You should now be able to access the Support How-To using the generated link. You cannot use the Support How-To dropdown to navigate to your new article. To access your article:
-
Select the link generated by Hugo.
-
In the search bar type '/support/how-to/' after the existing local address.
-
Copy and paste the information from the slug section of your metadata after the '/support/how-to/' text.
This running instance supports live reload. Changes you make to files are automatically updated in your running instance.
Some files may not be supported for live reload. If you are not automatically seeing your changes,
you may need to restart the server. You can restart the server by pressing 'ctrl-c' and running
netlify dev again.
If everything is working as expected, you will see output similar to:
