Hazelcast Management Center Documentation

This repository contains the Antora components for the Hazelcast Management Center documentation.

The documentation source files are marked up with AsciiDoc.

Docs Structure

This section describes some important information about how this repository is structured:

• The component name, version, and start page are configured in each branch’s antora.yml file.

• The navigation for all modules is stored in the ROOT module’s nav.adoc file.

• The docs site playbook instructs Antora to automatically build the site using content in the main branch as well as any branches that are prefixed with v/.

Release Workflow

Documentation for new releases is hosted in versioned branches that are prefixed with v/. The latest-dev content (snapshot content) is stored in the main branch.

We support documentation for the latest patch releases of minor versions. For example, content for the 5.0 version is hosted in the v/5.0 branch. This branch contains content for the latest patch release of version 5.0.

Snapshot Releases

Add the new snapshot version to the following:

Repository	Branch	File	Fields
management-center-docs	main	docs/antora.yml	version display_version full-version
management-center	master	src/openapi/external/antora.yml	version
hazelcast-docs	main and develop	_redirects	/management-center/latest-dev/*
		search-config.json	Where the current latest snapshot is used start_urls.tags start_urls.variables.version
hz-docs	main	docs/antora.yml	asciidoc.attributes.page-latest-supported-mc

Latest Releases

Add the major.minor version to the following:

Repository	Branch	File	Fields
management-center-docs	v/{major.minor version}	docs/antora.yml	version display_version
management-center	The major.minor or .z branch of the new latest version of Management Center. NOTE: If a .z branch exists, make this changes before creating a maintenance branch off of it.	src/openapi/external/antora.yml	version
hazelcast-docs	main and develop	_redirects	/hazelcast/latest/*
		search-config.json	Create a new object in the start_urls array. { "url": "https://docs.hazelcast.com/management-center/(?P<version>.*?)/", "tags": [ "management-center-{major.minor version}" ], "variables": { "version": ["{major.minor version}"] }, "selectors_key": "mc" }
hz-docs	The v/{version} branch where version is the value of the asciidoc.attributes.page-latest-supported-hazelcast field in the docs/antora.yml file of the management-center-docs repository	docs/antora.yml	asciidoc.attributes.page-latest-supported-mc

Add the full version major.minor.patch to the following:

Repository	File	Fields
management-center-docs	docs/antora.yml	full-version

Patch Releases

In the v/ branch for the minor version whose patch you are releasing, update the asciidoc.attributes.full-version field in the antora.yml file to the new patch version. For example, if you are releasing version 5.0.3, find the v/5.0 branch and update the asciidoc.attributes.full-version field in the antora.yml file with 5.0.3.

Note	As soon as you push content to this branch, GitHub will trigger a new build of the site, which will include your new content.

Creating Release Branches

1. If you are releasing a new major version, create a release branch from the main branch.

   For example, if you are releasing version 5.1, create a new release branch named 5.1 from the main branch.

2. Update the fields mentioned in Latest Releases.

3. Remove the prerelease: true field and the snapshot: true field from the docs/antora.yml file of the management-center-docs repository.

   Important

   If you are creating a branch for a beta release, do not remove the prerelease field.

4. When you are ready to release, create a maintenance branch from the release branch.

   Note	As soon as you push the maintenance branch to the repository, GitHub will trigger a new build of the site, which will include your new content.

5. Make sure to delete the release branch.

   For example, if you released version 5.1, delete the 5.1 branch. This step helps to keep the repository clean of release branches.
