Buddies of Budgie Documentation is our documentation center leveraging Docusaurus.
To get started developing our Docusaurus instance, or writing documentation, first fork this project in order to submit pull requests for your changes
This project is written using TypeScript and React, with some documentation being Markdown or MDX. To facilitate development, we use nvm and Yarn.
To set up nvm, the Node Version Manager, follow the instructions listed here. We recommend setting up their shell integration as well, so you can automatically switch to the correct Node version when working on this project. Otherwise, ensure you run nvm use. This project requires the "current" supported release series of Node.
You can validate you are using the latest by running node --version. Your version should be at least 19.x.
This project makes use of Yarn for its package management. After setting up nvm and ensuring you are running the latest Node, run:
corepack enableTo install the required dependencies, run: yarn
To start the live reloading Docusaurus, run: yarn start
yarn clearyarn lintyarn write-translationsyarn buildWe provide the following targets for our container image:
development: This can be used to facilitate local development should you not wish to set up a host-based local development environment.While you can run the development target without specifying a volume, which would effectively be a copy of what you have in your working directory at image build time, there is no advantage to doing so over running the deploy target. So this section will focus on use with our working directory set as mounted volume.
For this section, we will be using podman, although the commands should be identical for docker as well should you use that instead. Just swap podman for docker.
podman build -t docusaurus:development --target development .podman run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 -v .:/app docusaurus:developmentsh as entrypoint (does not automatically start docusaurus): podman run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 --entrypoint /bin/sh --tty -v .:/app docusaurus:developmentThis will mount the working directory at /app as a volume and whenever there is a change to this directory, Docusaurus will automatically rebuild thanks to hot module reloading.
