The website is a static website generated by [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/).

The website is generated from the files in `$GIT/dnscontrol/docs`. If a file
|
|
|
|
has a `.md` extension, it will be turned into an HTML file. Otherwise it is
|
|
|
|
copied verbatium.

# How to preview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation can be viewed via Docker:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
cd docs
|
|
|
|
./runDocker.sh
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
FYI: Alternative Docker command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
docker run --rm -it --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" --volume="$PWD/vendor/bundle:/ usr/local/bundle" --env JEKYLL_ENV=production jekyll/jekyll:3.8 jekyll build -V
|
|
|
|
# Open docs/_site/index.html in your web browser to see the results.
|
|
|
|
# (Note: The preview isn't perfect. Links that use the site.github.url variable won't work.
|
|
|
|
```
