Vault Website
This subdirectory contains the entire source for the Vault Website. This is a Middleman project, which builds a static site from these source files.
Updating Navigation
There are a couple different places on the website that present navigation interfaces with differing levels of detail.
On the homepage, docs index page, and api docs index page, there are grids of major categories that look like this. These major category grids can be updated through data/docs_basic_categories.yml and data/api_basic_categories.yml.
On the docs and api index pages, there are more detailed breakdowns of top-level documentation pages within each category that look like this. These more detailed category listings can be updated through data/docs_detailed_categories.yml and data/api_detailed_categories.yml.
Finally, within a given docs page, there is a sidebar which displays a fully nested version of all docs pages. This sidebar navigation can be updated through via middleman's layouts, found at source/layouts/docs.erb and source/layouts/api.erb. You will see within these files that it is no longer necessary to type out full nested html list item and link tags, you can simply add the documentation page's slug, defined as sidebar_current within the frontmatter of any docs markdown file. The sidebar nav component will go find the page by slug and render out its human-readable title and a link for you. This component does not allow broken links or nesting mistakes, so if you make a typo on the slug or put a page in the wrong category, the build will fail.
Contributions Welcome!
If you find a typo or you feel like you can improve the HTML, CSS, or JavaScript, we welcome contributions. Feel free to open issues or pull requests like any normal GitHub project, and we'll merge it in.
Running the Site Locally
When running the site locally, you can choose between running it directly on your machine, or running it through Docker. Docker has the advantage of requiring only Docker to be installed - no other dependencies are needed on your machine. However, Docker's overhead makes the site's compilation perform much slower than running it directly on your machine. If you are a frequent contributor, are bothered by the performance in Docker, or have no issues with installing ruby and node / already have them installed, it might be an advantage to try running the site directly on your machine. Instructions for both approaches are included below.
Running the Site with Docker
First, make sure that docker is installed. It can be installed in many ways, the desktop app is the simplest. To run the site, clone this repo down, cd into the website directory, and run make website. If it is your first time running the site, the build will take a little longer as it needs to download a docker image and a bunch of dependencies, so maybe go grab a coffee. On subsequent runs, it will be faster as dependencies are cached.
Running the Site Directly
This site requires a recent version of ruby as well as nodejs to be installed in order to run. There are many ways to install ruby, we recommend rbenv, which has very clear installation instructions in its readme, linked here, and installing ruby version 2.4.3. Once ruby has been installed, you will need to install bundler as well, using gem install bundler. Node is quite easy to install via universal binary or homebrew if you are a mac user.
Once ruby and node have been installed, within this directory, you can run sh bootstrap.sh to install all the dependencies needed to run the site, then run middleman to start the dev server.
Browsing the Site Locally
Once you have the local dev server running, head to http://localhost:4567 in your browser. Note that for some URLs, you may need to append
".html" to make them work (in the navigation).
