This PR builds on the preceding doc auto-generation PRs and generates
documentation for the remaining server-side SDKs.
## Why
Refer to https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/pull/2809 for more context
about generating SDK docs.
## What
- Adds generation for the remaining server-side SDKs
- Moves generated docs from the `/reference/sdks` directory to
`/generated` directory.
- Makes sure that the URLs do not change because of the move by using
the `slug` frontmatter property.
- replaces relative github links in the markdown documents so that they
become absolute github links. (refer to the next section)
- Updates some image styling so that it doesn't apply to readme badges
(we don't need them using `display: block`)
### On link replacing:
This PR adds handling of links in the generated documentation.
Specifically, it changes links in one case:
Relative links to github. Links to code and other files in the
repository. These are prefixed with the repository's URL.
While this should work in most cases, it will fail in cases where the
links to the files are not on the repository's primary branch.
(typically main, but could also be "v3", for instance). In these cases,
the links will get a double branch in the URL and will fail. However, I
see no easy way around this (though suggestions are definitely
accepted!), and think it's a fair tradeoff. It takes the links from
"definitely failing" to "will work in the vast majority of cases".
Note: I originally also wanted to handle the case where the link is an
absolute link to docs.getunleash.io. We could turn these into relative
urls to avoid full page reloads and enjoy a smoother experience.
However, the client-side redirects don't work correctly if the relative
URL goes to a redirect page, so you end up with a 404 page. As such, I
think it's better to leave the links as absolute for now.
## What
This (admittedly massive) PR updates the "physical" documentation
structure and fixes url inconsistencies and SEO problems reported by
marketing. The main points are:
- remove or move directories : advanced, user_guide, deploy, api
- move the files contained within to the appropriate one of topics,
how-to, tutorials, or reference
- update internal doc links and product links to the content
- create client-side redirects for all the urls that have changed.
A number of the files have been renamed in small ways to better match
their url and to make them easier to find. Additionally, the top-level
api directory has been moved to /reference/api/legacy/unleash (see the
discussion points section for more on this).
## Why
When moving our doc structure to diataxis a while back, we left the
"physical' files lying where they were, because it didn't matter much to
the new structure. However, that did introduce some inconsistencies with
where you place docs and how we organize them.
There's also the discrepancies in whether urls us underscores or hyphens
(which isn't necessarily the same as their file name), which has been
annoying me for a while, but now has also been raised by marketing as an
issue in terms of SEO.
## Discussion points
The old, hand-written API docs have been moved from /api to
/reference/api/legacy/unleash. There _is_ a /reference/api/unleash
directory, but this is being populated by the OpenAPI plugin, and mixing
those could only cause trouble. However, I'm unsure about putting
/legacy/ in the title, because the API isn't legacy, the docs are. Maybe
we could use another path? Like /old-docs/ or something? I'd appreciate
some input on this.
## What
This PR removes or updates references in the docs to Heroku. Most of the code samples have been replaced with a more generic `unleash.example.com` url, while other references have been removed or updated.
Also removes old OpenAPI files that are out of date and redundant with the new generation.
## Background
Come November and Heroku will no longer offer free deployments of Unleash, so it's about time we remove that claim.
Links to the heroku instance are also outdated because we don't have that instance running anymore.
Finally, the OpenAPI files we do have there are old and static, so they don't match the current reality.
## Commits
* Meta: update ignore file to ignore autogenerated docs
I must've missed the ignore file when looking for patterns.
* docs: delete old openapi file.
This seems to have been a holdover from 2020 and is probably
hand-written. It has been superseded by the new autogenerated OpenAPI docs.
* docs: add notes for heroku changes to the frontend readme and pkg
* docs: remove old openapi article and add redirects to new openapi
* docs: fix link in overview doc: point to GitHub instead of heroku
* docs: update quickstart docs with new heroku details
* docs: remove reference to crashing heroku instance
* docs: remove references to herokuapp in code samples
* docs: add a placeholder comment
* docs: update references for heroku updates
* docs: keep using unleash4 for enterprise
* docs: remove start:heroku script in favor of start:sandbox
* docs: remove 'deploy on heroku button'
Now that it's not free anymore (or won't be very shortly), let's
remove it.
* docs: remove extra newline
