The yearn devdocs website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.
yarn install
yarn start
This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
yarn build
This command generates static content into the build
directory and can be served using any static content hosting service.
GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> USE_SSH=true yarn deploy
If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push it to the gh-pages
branch.
We have 2 types of documentation: versioned documentation and non-versioned documentation:
- Versioned documentation is automatically generated from another repository's code.
- Non-versioned documentation is generated from markdown or HTML files and edited manually.
For detailed information on the contributing workflow, please see the Contributing Documentation.
In the docs
folder:
- getting-started
- partners
- v1
In versioned_docs
you will find several versions of the vault documentation that corresponds to a tagged release. In vaults
folder you can find the latest version that corresponds to the changes on yearn-vault master is the documentation for the next/unreleased version.
Dependencies
- Clone yearn/yearn-vaults in the same folder where you cloned yearn-devdocs (not inside devdocs, but besides it)
- Run the yearn-vaults installation, you will need to have brownie installed to run it once so it installs the required dependencies.
- Check the vyper compiler version on the vaults repo (here) and update the
~/.vvm/vyper-X.X.X
in the end of the first command below. - Make sure Vault.vy and Registry.vy on
yearn-vaults
folder has the same compiler version on their first line. If not, bump the file with the lowest version to the current version the other uses. - If any contract file in yearn-vaults uses a fixed compiler version (without leading
^
) you may have to add it so thesolc
compiler will run. Also, make suresolc
version is up-to-date. - More information on docusaurus versioning here if the last command has any issue, and remember to change the version to the one you are generating for!
Generate:
To generate API documentation and coin a new release, do the following.
npx vydoc -i ../yearn-vaults/contracts/ -o ./vaults/smart-contracts -t ./templates/contract.ejs -c ~/.vvm/vyper-0.3.3
npx solidity-docgen --solc-module solc --templates=templates --helpers=helpers/solidityHelpers.js -i ../yearn-vaults/contracts/ -o ./vaults/smart-contracts
npm run docusaurus docs:version 0.4.5
After that put everything generated in the new version documentation into versioned_docs/version-x.x.x/smart-contracts
folder, then copy yearn-lens/.
, yearn-sdk/.
and yearn-api.md
from the previous versioned documentation's folder into the new one.
