4 ReadTheDocs Version:3 Jobs
5 ##########################
7 ReadTheDocs V3 jobs support documentation that is structured as a
8 master documentation project plus a sub-project for each software
9 component. The master project files are usually maintained in a
10 "docs" git repository and should contain an index with links to all
11 the sub-projects. Each sub-project must maintain its documentation
12 files in a "docs" subdirectory within that software component's git
15 The RTDv3 Jenkins jobs publish documentation by triggering builds at
16 ReadTheDocs.io. That build process clones the appropriate repository
17 and transforms Real Simple Text (RST) and other files into HTML.
18 Master project builds are performed separately from sub-project
21 The ReadTheDocs site supports multiple versions of documentation for
22 the master project and every sub-project. Every project should have a
23 development branch that's published at ReadTheDocs under the title
24 "latest"; in git this is usually the "master" branch. Most projects
25 also declare releases periodically. ReadTheDocs automatically detects
26 the creation of git branches and git tags, and publishes the most
27 recent one under the title "stable." For more details please see
29 <https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/versions.html>`_. Teams can
30 control this process using Jenkins job configuration parameters as
36 To transform your rst documentation into a read the docs page, this job must be
37 configured and created as described in Admin setup below. Once this is complete
38 the following files must be added to your repository:
50 docs/requirements-docs.txt
53 Rather than have you copy and paste these files from a set of docs here, the
54 following repo contains a script that will do this for you. Please refer to the
55 explanation presented in: https://github.com/lfit-sandbox/test. This is all
56 currently a beta feature, so feedback is encouraged. The script
57 `docs_script.sh` is not needed, you can copy the files by hand if you prefer.
59 Once these files are correctly configured in your repository you can test
64 tox -e docs,docs-linkcheck
67 Stable Branch Instructions
68 --------------------------
70 If your project does not create branches, you can skip this step.
71 Once you branch your project modify your conf.yaml and add the following line:
75 version: 'ReleaseBranchName'
77 This will update the docs and change "master" on the top bar to your branch
78 name. This change should be done against your release branch, this change will
79 trigger a Read The Docs build which will create a new landing point for your
82 This landing point is called /stable/ and is selectable as a version in the
83 bottom right corner of all Read The Docs pages. Once all projects have
84 branched and modified their conf.py they will have available their /stable/
85 documentation. The process to release the documentation (that is to change the
86 default landing point of your docs from /latest/ to /stable/) is to change the
87 default-version in the jenkins job config as follows:
93 default-version: latest
99 default-version: ReleaseBranchName
104 This is a global job that only needs to be added once to your project's ci-mangement git
105 repository. It leverages the read the docs v3 api to create projects on the fly, as well
106 as setting up subproject associations with the master doc.
108 Jobs will run but skip any actual verification until a .readthedocs.yaml is placed in the
109 root of the repository
111 The master doc must be defined in
112 jenkins-config/global-vars-{production|sandbox}.sh
114 Normally this project is called doc or docs or documentation and all other docs build will
115 be set as a subproject of this job.
121 global-vars-sandbox.sh:
122 MASTER_RTD_PROJECT=doc-test
123 global-vars-production.sh:
124 MASTER_RTD_PROJECT=doc
126 In this way sandbox jobs will create docs with a test suffix and will not stomp on production
131 example file: ci-management/jjb/rtd/rtd.yaml
137 name: rtdv3-global-verify
138 build-node: centos7-builder-1c-1g
139 default-version: latest
141 - rtdv3-global-verify
146 branch: stable/{stream}
149 name: rtdv3-global-merge
150 default-version: latest
151 build-node: centos7-builder-1c-1g
158 branch: stable/{stream}
160 Or add both jobs via a job group:
168 default-version: latest
169 build-node: centos7-builder-1c-1g
177 Github jobs must be per project, and will be covered by a diffrent set of jobs once these are proven.
179 Job requires an lftools config section, this is to provide api access to read the docs.
184 endpoint = https://readthedocs.org/api/v3/
187 Merge Job will create a project on read the docs if none exist.
188 Merge Job will assign a project as a subproject of the master project.
189 Merge job will trigger a build to update docs.
190 Merge job will change the default version if needed.
198 RTD verify and merge jobs are the same except for their scm, trigger, and
199 builders definition. This anchor is the common template.
208 Merge job which triggers a build of the docs to readthedocs.
