Stakater App Agility Platform (SAAP) Documentation
SAAP docs are built using MkDocs which is based on Python.
GitHub Actions
This repository has Github action workflow which checks the quality of the documentation and builds the Dockerfile image on Pull Requests. On a push to the main branch, it will create a GitHub release and push the built Dockerfile image to an image repository.
Build Dockerfile image and run container
Build Dockerfile image:
$ docker build . -t test
Run container:
$ docker run -p 8080:8080 testThen access the docs on localhost:8080.
Build locally
It is preferred to build and run the docs using the Dockerfile image, however an alternative is to run the commands locally.
