Website
This website is built using Docusaurus 2, a modern static website generator.
Installation
In a terminal, cd into the website folder of the locally cloned unleash repository and then start the installation.
cd unleash/website
yarn install
Generate OpenAPI docs
yarn generate
Generate the Open API docs that live at Reference documentation > APIs > OpenAPI
Local Development
Before running the docs the first time, you'll need to generate external documentation, as described in the generate OpenAPI docs section.
yarn start
Start a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
Build
yarn build
This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.
Cleaning dependencies and caches
If you're upgrading many dependencies, it's always good to delete the node_modules directory, refresh yarn.lock and clean the various caches.
rm -rf node_modules
rm -rf .docusaurus
rm -rf docs/reference/api/unleash
rm -rf yarn.lock
touch yarn.lock
Troubleshooting
TypeError: source_default(...).bold is not a function
If you get an error like this, it's probably due to a formatting issue within one of the markdown files. It could be
- unescaped angle brackets (markdown will try to parse
<your-key>(when it's not quoted) as HTML, which breaks the build) - incorrectly formatted titles or missing pieces of files
- a lot of other stuff.

TypeError: source_default(...).bold is not a function
[ERROR] Unable to build website for locale en.
This error is very hard to debug, but there is a trick that appears to work (as shared in this discussion on docusaurus' repo):
In node_modules/@docusaurus/core/lib/client/serverEntry.js, remove all references to chalk. You can use a regex replace for that, by replacing chalk(\w|\.)+ with the empty string.
Depending on your editor, that regex might need more escapes. For instance, here's a command to run with evil-ex in Emacs:
%s/chalk\(\w\|\.\)+//g
For macOS sed, it'd be:
sed -i '' 's/chalk\(\w\|\.\)\+//g' node_modules/@docusaurus/core/lib/client/serverEntry.js
For GNU sed:
sed -i 's/chalk\(\w\|\.\)\+//g' node_modules/@docusaurus/core/lib/client/serverEntry.js
That might turn your error into something like this:
