Build

Linux

$ docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/vyos -w /vyos/docs -e GOSU_UID=$(id -u) -e GOSU_GID=$(id -g) vyos-docu make html

# sphinx autobuild
$ docker run --rm -it -p 8000:8000 -v "$(pwd)":/vyos -w /vyos/docs -e GOSU_UID=$(id -u) -e GOSU_GID=$(id -g) vyos-docu make livehtml

Windows

docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd):/vyos" -w /vyos/docs vyos-docu make html

# sphinx autobuild
docker run --rm -it -p 8000:8000 -v "$(pwd):/vyos" -w /vyos/docs vyos-docu make livehtml

Test the docs

discuss in this Task: T1731

to test all files:

$ docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/vyos -w /vyos/docs -e GOSU_UID=$(id -u) -e GOSU_GID=$(id -g) vyos-docu vale .

to test a specific file e.g. clustering.rst
