Antora Decidim UI

This project is Decidim adaptation for Antora, used by the Decidim Documentation website. This is based on the antora-default-ui

Use this UI

If you want to use this UI, you can do so by:

ui:
  bundle:
    url: https://github.com/decidim/docs.decidim.org-ui/-/TODO/master/raw/build/ui-bundle.zip?job=bundle-stable
    snapshot: true

Development Quickstart

This section offers a basic tutorial to teach you how to set up the default UI project, preview it locally, and bundle it for use with Antora. A more comprehensive can be found in the documentation at https://docs.antora.org.

Prerequisites

To preview and bundle this UI, you need the following software on your computer:

Gulp CLI

You’ll need the Gulp command-line interface (CLI) to run the build. The Gulp CLI package provides the gulp command which, in turn, executes the version of Gulp declared by the project.

$ npm install -g gulp-cli

Verify the Gulp CLI is installed and on your PATH by running:

$ gulp --version
$ git clone https://github.com/decidim/documentation-antora-ui &&
  cd "`basename $_`"

Install dependencies with:

$ npm install

Preview the UI

The default UI project is configured to preview offline. The files in the preview-src/ folder provide the sample content that allow you to see the UI in action. In this folder, you’ll primarily find pages written in AsciiDoc. These pages provide a representative sample and kitchen sink of content from the real site.

To build the UI and preview it in a local web server, run the preview command:

$ gulp preview

You’ll see a URL listed in the output of this command:

[12:00:00] Starting server...
[12:00:00] Server started http://localhost:5252
[12:00:00] Running server

Navigate to this URL to preview the site locally.

While this command is running, any changes you make to the source files will be instantly reflected in the browser. This works by monitoring the project for changes, running the preview:build task if a change is detected, and sending the updates to the browser.

Press kbd:[Ctrl+C] to stop the preview server and end the continuous build.

Package for Use with Antora

If you need to package the UI so you can use it to generate the documentation site locally, run the following command:

$ gulp bundle

If any errors are reported by lint, you’ll need to fix them.

When the command completes successfully, the UI bundle will be available at build/ui-bundle.zip. You can point Antora at this bundle using the --ui-bundle-url command-line option.

If you have the preview running, and you want to bundle without causing the preview to be clobbered, use:

$ gulp bundle:pack

The UI bundle will again be available at build/ui-bundle.zip.
