Centralized publication¶
Certain core ScyllaDB projects are configured or published from the repository scylladb/scylladb-docs-homepage instead of the project repository itself.
This allows us to:
Publish core set of docs from a common domain:
https://docs.scylladb.com/<PROJECT_NAME>/
instead ofhttps://<PROJECT_NAME>.docs.scylladb.com
.Manage release configuration externally, from a single place, without having to update each project repository.
Projects published from scylladb-docs-homepage¶
The following projects are published from the scylladb-docs-homepage
repository to the docs.scylladb.com
domain:
ScyllaDB Homepage: Published every time there is a new commit on the
main
branch.ScyllaDB Manual: Published every 24 hours or whenever the file manual_doc_versions.json receives an update.
Projects defining versions in scylladb-docs-homepage¶
The following projects define their versions in the scylladb-docs-homepage
repository:
ScyllaDB Homepage: conf.py
ScyllaDB Manual: manual_doc_versions.json
ScyllaDB Open Source: opensource_doc_versions.json
ScyllaDB Enterprise: enterprise_doc_versions.json
Note
ScyllaDB Open Source and Enterprise multiversion configuration is defined in scylladb-docs-homepage, but the publication process happens in the respective project repositories.
List a new version¶
To add a new release to the centralized publication, submit a pull request to the scylladb/scylladb-docs-homepage repository with the following changes:
Open the docs/_static/data/ directory.
Update the <PROJECT_NAME>_doc_versions.json file. Add the new version to the
branches
array:{ "tags": [], "branches": [ "master", "branch-2025.1", "branch-2025.2" ], "latest": "branch-2025.1", "unstable": ["master"], "deprecated": [] }
Note
The branch should already exist in the associated project repository.
In the same file, set the new version as the
latest
:{ "tags": [], "branches": [ "master", "branch-2025.1", "branch-2025.2" ], "latest": "branch-2025.2", "unstable": ["master"], "deprecated": [] }
Submit your changes in a pull request and get it approved.
Once merged, the new version will be published.
Note
For open-source and enterprise projects, publication will trigger automatically the next time the associated repository receives an update. This is because scylladb-docs-homepage only defines the versions, not the publication scripts.
