# Contributing to Documentation

## Dev Mode
Apache Zeppelin is using [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) which is a static site generator and [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com/) as a site publisher. For the more details, see [help.github.com/articles/about-github-pages-and-jekyll/](https://help.github.com/articles/about-github-pages-and-jekyll/).

### Requirements

```
# ruby --version >= 2.0.0
# Install Bundler using gem
gem install bundler
cd $ZEPPELIN_HOME/docs
# Install all dependencies declared in the Gemfile
bundle install
```

For the further information about requirements, please see [here](https://help.github.com/articles/setting-up-your-github-pages-site-locally-with-jekyll/#requirements).

On OS X 10.9, you may need to do

```
xcode-select --install
```
### Run the website locally

If you don't want to encounter uglily rendered pages, run the documentation site in your local first.
In `$ZEPPELIN_HOME/docs`,

```
bundle exec jekyll serve --watch
```

Using the above command, Jekyll will start a web server at `http://localhost:4000` and watch the `/docs` directory to update.


## Folder Structure & Components
`docs/` folder is organized like below:

```
docs/
├── _includes/themes/zeppelin
│ ├── _navigation.html
│ └── default.html
├── _layouts
├── _plugins
├── assets/themes/zeppelin -> {ASSET_PATH}
│ ├── bootstrap
│ ├── css
│ ├── img
│ └── js
├── development/ *.md
├── displaysystem/ *.md
├── install/ *.md
├── interpreter/ *.md
├── manual/ *.md
├── quickstart/ *.md
├── rest-api/ *.md
├── security/ *.md
├── storage/ *.md
├── Gemfile
├── Gemfile.lock
├── _config.yml
├── index.md
└── ...
```

- `_navigation.html`: the dropdown menu in navbar
- `default.html` & `_layouts/`: define default HTML layout
- `_plugins/`: custom plugin `*.rb` files can be placed in this folder. See [jekyll/plugins](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/plugins/) for the further information.
- `{ASSET_PATH}/css/style.css`: extra css components can be defined
- `{ASSET_PATH}/img/docs-img/`: image files used for document pages can be placed in this folder
- `{ASSET_PATH}/js/`: extra `.js` files can be placed
- `Gemfile`: defines bundle dependencies. They will be installed by `bundle install`.
- `Gemfile.lock`: when you run `bundle install`, bundler will persist all gems name and their version to this file. For the more details, see [Bundle "The Gemfile Lock"](http://bundler.io/v1.10/man/bundle-install.1.html#THE-GEMFILE-LOCK)
- `documentation_group`: `development/`, `displaysystem/`, `install/`, `interpreter/`...
- `_config.yml`: defines configuration options for docs website. See [jekyll/configuration](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/configuration/) for the other available config variables.
- `index.md`: the main page of `http://zeppelin.apache.org/docs/<ZEPPELIN_VERSION>/`


### Markdown
Zeppelin documentation pages are written with [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/). It is possible to use [GitHub flavored syntax](https://help.github.com/categories/writing-on-github/) and intermix plain HTML.

### Front matter
Every page contains [YAML front matter](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/frontmatter/) block in their header. Don't forget to wrap the front matter list with triple-dashed lines(`---`) like below.
The document page should start this triple-dashed lines. Or you will face 404 error, since Jekyll can't find the page.

```
---
layout: page
title: "Apache Zeppelin Tutorial"
description: "This tutorial page contains a short walk-through tutorial that uses Apache Spark backend. Please note that this tutorial is valid for Spark 1.3 and higher."
group: quickstart
---
```

- `layout`: the default layout is `page` which is defined in `_layout/page.html`.
- `title`: the title for the document. Please note that if it needs to include `Zeppelin`, it should be `Apache Zeppelin`, not `Zeppelin`.
- `description`: a short description for the document. One or two sentences would be enough. This description also will be shown as an extract sentence when people search pages.
- `group`: a category of the document page

### Headings
All documents are structured with headings. From these headings, you can automatically generate a **Table of Contents**. There is a simple rule for Zeppelin docs headings.

```
# Level-1 heading <- used only for the main title
## Level-2 heading <- start with this
### Level-3 heading
#### Level-4 heading <- won't be converted in TOC from this level
```

### Table of contents(TOC)

```
<div id="toc"></div>
```

Add this line below `# main title` in order to generate a **Table of Contents**. Headings until `### (Level-3 heading)` are included to TOC.


Default setting options for TOC are definded in [here](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/blob/master/docs/assets/themes/zeppelin/js/toc.js#L4).


### Adding new pages
If you're going to create new pages, there are some spots you need to add the location of the page.

- **Dropdown menu in navbar**: add your docs location to [_navigation.html](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/blob/master/docs/_includes/themes/zeppelin/_navigation.html)
- **Main index**: add your docs below [What is the next?](http://zeppelin.apache.org/docs/latest/#what-is-the-next) section in [index.md](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/blob/master/docs/index.md) with a short description. No need to do this if the page is for **Interpreters**.


## For committers only
### Bumping up version in a new release

`ZEPPELIN_VERSION` and `BASE_PATH` property in `_config.yml`

### Deploy to ASF svnpubsub infra
1. generate static website in `./_site`

```
# go to /docs under Zeppelin source
bundle exec jekyll build --safe
```

2. checkout ASF repo
```
svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/zeppelin asf-zeppelin
