The main problem is understanding if we can move away from the js generation for the docs example. Because actually we're using that stuff with a template.
I would like to restart the discussion on this but we need some help from @zregvart
Do you think is feasible to go away from js generation on-the-fly and have generated .adoc directly in the repository? That way we could focus on improving one/two Kamelets and see how it goes and go through all of them later. Working on the js side of thing keep things harder.

It is very much feasible, this is what we do in the Camel components documentation. This can be done in a separate Antora module and later on rename that module to the ROOT
module.
Few things to consider:
Also it would be good later to go over kamelets and add more description what they do, and some small examples, also for the options.
I think, this can be done today without changing the template processing, by placing a {name}-description.adoc
in the ROOT/pages directory and adding a include like:
include::{name}-description.adoc[opts=optional]
To the ROOT/examples/template/kamelet-options.adoc
template. And analogously for an example.
With that said, rendering the templates and having plain asciidoc files in the pages
makes the documentation a bit easier to contribute to, troubleshoot and make changes to.

ROOT
module. Few things to consider:
- the navigation (nav.adoc) needs to be generated
- the index page needs to be generated
- for each Kamelet it's documentation needs to be generated, this template is currently the most complex one as it includes many variables fetched from the catalog
- this processing needs to be included in the build tooling (regen on build, regen on PR merge)

Do you have eventually time to draft something we could start to hack on? Like a branch with just one adoc ported? Thanks.

Unfortunately, I don't see much free time to work on this in the near term; perhaps I can find some time in a month or two...
I tried to add this file https://github.com/apache/camel-kamelets/blob/main/docs/modules/ROOT/pages/aws-s3-source-description.adoc
And add the include in the template in the template kamelet-options
But it doesn't render yet on the website
https://camel.apache.org/camel-kamelets/next/aws-s3-source.html
@zregvart can you help on this?
@oscerd the page is here: https://camel.apache.org/camel-kamelets/next/aws-s3-source-description.html
Yeah I fixed that but forget to update here
Ok, but the problem is it needs to be included in https://camel.apache.org/camel-kamelets/next/aws-s3-source.html
Now I should be able to include it, but I'll have to use the correct level because the website fails with
+ cd /home/jenkins/712657a4/workspace/Camel_Camel.website_main/camel-website
+ yarn checks
[check:html ]
[check:html ] /home/jenkins/712657a4/workspace/Camel_Camel.website_main/camel-website/public/camel-kamelets/next/aws-s3-source-description.html
[check:html ] 1:133 error Title starts with the `Untitled` make sure that the Asciidoc file starts with level 1 heading camel/title
[check:html ]
[check:html ] ✖ 1 problem (1 error, 0 warnings)
ERROR: "check:html" exited with 1.
If you include an .adoc
file in the pages
directory it'll be rendered as a single page, if you wanted to include it as a part of another page place it in the partials
directory. See the docs here.
But then I'll have to do something like
include::partial${name}-description.adoc[opts=optional]
and it won't resolve the name part.
@davsclaus @zregvart this is working now and here is how it looks like: https://camel.apache.org/camel-kamelets/next/aws-s3-source.html
So it will be enough to create a file named
So we could start improving the most prominent kamelets.
Kamelets are universal connectors for Camel, and we should tidy up docs and make it more user focused and less tech savy.
The knative binding stuff should be removed. This kind of docs belong in camel-k knative section.
Also it would be good later to go over kamelets and add more description what they do, and some small examples, also for the options.
