Upgrading from 1.1 to 1.2

Upgrading from 1.1 to 1.2¶

This guide explains how to upgrade the version of the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme.

How to check your current theme version¶

The theme version is displayed in the footer of the project’s documentation site.

If your project theme’s version is >=1.1, follow this guide to get the latest version.

Here are the main breaking changes between the 1.1 and 1.2 versions.

Update the following Python dependencies in docs/pyproject.toml:

sphinx-scylladb-theme = "~1.2.1"
sphinx-multiversion-scylla = "~0.2.11"
sphinx-sitemap = "2.2.0"

Edit docs/Makefile:

Replace:

POETRY = $(HOME)/.local/bin/poetry

With:

POETRY = poetry

# Windows variables
ifeq ($(OS),Windows_NT)
    POETRY = $(APPDATA)\Python\Scripts\poetry
endif

Add:

 # Setup commands
.PHONY: setupenv
setupenv:
    pip install -q poetry

Remove the files .github/workflows/docs-*.yml. Then, copy the new workflows in the .github/workflows folder. You can download the latest workflows here.
If the default branch is not master or the docs are not under the docs folder, the workflows to match the project configuration. For example:
on: push: branches: - master # edit this line paths: - "docs/**" # edit this line
Commit and push the changes to GitHub (default branch).

To check if the upgrade completed successfully, run the command make preview. Then, check if the site footer displays version 1.2 or greater.

To list versions as unstable:

Define in your conf.py the list UNSTABLE_VERSIONS:

# Set which versions are not released yet.
UNSTABLE_VERSIONS = ["master"]

Add a new option versions_unstable in html_options:

html_theme_options = {
    "versions_unstable": UNSTABLE_VERSIONS,
    ...
}

Sitemaps are useful for search engines to index content. The toolchain now automatically generates a sitemap for the site.

To install the sitemap extension, list it the conf.py file:

extensions = [
    ...,
    "sphinx_sitemap",
]

If the project has the multiversion extension enabled, add the following line at the end of the file:

sitemap_url_scheme = "stable/{link}"

If your project uses the Custom landing page feature, add the following lines at the top of the file docs/source/index.rst:

:hide-sidebar:
:hide-secondary-sidebar:
