Documentation site for Datadog

Built with hugo, a static website generation tool.

Setup

Installation

  1. Install npm

  2. Install Python3 (you can also use pyenv)

  3. Install hugo

  4. Install yarn: npm install -g yarn

  5. Download the documentation repo git clone https://github.com/DataDog/documentation.git

Run the server

Inside documentation/ folder, create a Makefile.config file from the Makefile.config.example

If you are a Datadog employee, add your Github personal token

To run the documentation site locally, execute:

Command Description
make start-no-pre-build Build the lightweight version of the documentation with no extra content
make start Build the full documentation with all extra content (integrations, extra pulled files, localised content...). Only useful if you have a Github personal token setup in your Makefile.config or the extra content is available localy.

Documentation is then available at http://localhost:1313

To learn more about how the documentation is build refer to the Documentation Build Wiki.

Makefile

To use the Makefile, create a Makefile.config. See the instructions at the top of the Makefile.config.example.

After you have a config file you can run make help to see options:

clean-all                 Clean everything.
clean-build               Remove build artifacts.

Working on Docs

Datadog Staff

  • Always branch off of master; never commit directly to master.
  • Name your branch <SLACK_HANDLE>/<FEATURE_NAME> if you would like to create a preview site and run tests.
  • When you are ready to commit, create a new pull request to master from your branch.
  • Consult our contributing guidelines and the Documentation Build Wiki.

Outside Contributors

  • Fork the master branch.
  • When you are ready to commit make a pull request back to DataDog/master.
  • Consult our contributing guidelines.

A note about markdown

This site uses Goldmark for markdown which is compliant with CommonMark 0.29.

If you include ANY Markdown in a file, give it an .md extension.

Make sure all files are lowercase. Macs are case insensitive when creating links to images and pages, but the server is not so tests may be fine locally but the site will fail in production.

Releasing

Within 5 minutes of merging to master, it deploys automatically.
