Not just -new additions but also corrections to existing documentation. - -Guidelines -^^^^^^^^^^ - -There are a few things to keep in mind when contributing to the -documentation, for the sake of consistency and readability. - -Take a look at the :doc:`/documentation` page for an intricate explanation -of the documentation process. - -The following is a quick summary of the rules: - -- Use American English at all times. It's always a good idea to run - your text through a grammar and spell checker, such as `Grammarly`_. -- Don't forget to update ``index.rst`` when adding a new node. -- Try not to exceed 80 characters per line, but don't break URLs over this. -- Properly quote commands, filenames and brief code snippets with double backticks. -- Use literal blocks for longer snippets. -- Leave a newline before and after a header. -- Indent with two spaces. -- When in doubt, follow the style of existing documentation. - -And finally, remember that the reStructuredText files aren't -exclusively for generating HTML and PDF. They should be human-readable -and easily perused from a console. - -Building -^^^^^^^^ - -The source is kept in the Git repository -https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation - -You can follow the instructions in the README to build and test your changes. - -You can either install Sphinx (and TeX Live for PDF output) and build the -documentation locally, or use the `Dockerfile`_ to build it in a container. - -.. _Dockerfile: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation/blob/master/docker/Dockerfile -.. _Grammarly: https://www.grammarly.com/ |
