<h2><a name="How_to_publish_the_Rat_website"></a>How to publish the Rat website</h2>
<p>The <a class="externalLink" href="https://creadur.apache.org">Apache Creadur</a> project, the community that develops <a class="externalLink" href="https://creadur.apache.org/rat">Apache Rat</a>, hosts its website on the <a class="externalLink" href="https://www.apache.org/dev/cms.html">ASF Content Management System</a>. <a class="externalLink" href="https://maven.apache.org">Apache Maven</a> builds Rat, and generates this subsite. Here's (one way) to work with these systems.</p>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="Developing_Content"></a>Developing Content</h3>
<p>Build and generate the site using Maven the usual way. A plain 'site' does not generate a fully complete page, thus:</p>
<div class="source">
<pre>mvn clean site site:stage</pre></div>
<p>This will generate a complete page under 'target/staging'.</p>
<p>Make your changes to the <tt>site.xml</tt> and/or <tt>.apt</tt> files then launch a server on <tt>localhost:8080</tt> using</p>
<div class="source">
<pre> mvn site:run</pre></div>
<p>Review <a class="externalLink" href="http://localhost:8080"><tt>localhost:8080</tt></a> using a browser, and do more edits. You'll see your changes as soon as you refresh the page.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="Committing_and_Reviewing_Content"></a>Committing and Reviewing Content</h3>
<p>As soon as your changes look okay locally on <tt>localhost:8080</tt>, commit them. <a class="externalLink" href="https://ci.apache.org/buildbot.html">Buildbot</a> will automatically notice the commit and create a staging site to look at <a class="externalLink" href="https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Creadur/"> https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Creadur/</a> which is always up to date (within a couple of minutes of any commit).</p>
<p>Need to make changes? No problem - go back and repeat the cycle as often as you like.</p>
<p>Happy with changes and ready to go live? Then read on...</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="Publishing_the_Site"></a>Publishing the Site</h3>
<p>The publishing process updates the main site with any changes committed since the last time the site was published.</p>
<p>Publishing is a multi-stage process with a mixture of automated and manual processing. End to end, the process is slow - perhaps taking 30 minutes but close supervision is not required.</p>
<div class="section">
<h4><a name="Deploy_the_Site_locally"></a>Deploy the Site locally</h4>
<p>Rat declares a local directory (<tt>stage</tt>) for Maven site deployments. To avoid excessive numbers of commits, the local directory needs to remain ignored by <tt>subversion</tt>. As well as being the target for <tt>mvn site-deploy</tt>, this is also the origin for publication.</p>
<p>Triggering the automated publication pipeline is a two phase process: Maven needs to deploy the latest site locally and then <tt>scm-publish</tt> pushes this content into version control.</p>
<p>If you prefer to be prompted to type your subversion passphrase, edit <tt>~/.scm/svn-settings.xml</tt> to include</p>
<div class="source">
<pre>&lt;svn-settings&gt;
...
&lt;useNonInteractive&gt;false&lt;/useNonInteractive&gt;
&lt;useAuthCache&gt;false&lt;/useAuthCache&gt;
...
&lt;/svn-settings&gt;</pre></div>
<p>Run both steps together using</p>
<div class="source">
<pre>
mvn site-deploy scm-publish:publish-scm
</pre></div>
<p>Publication is slow, and the plugin may wait silently for up to 30 minutes - so please allow the build enough time to complete.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h4><a name="Automated_Staging_of_the_Site"></a>Automated Staging of the Site</h4>
<p>The content committed by the Maven <tt>scm-publish</tt> plugin triggers a staging build on <a class="externalLink" href="https://ci.apache.org/"><tt>https://ci.apache.org/</tt></a>. To follow its progress, open the <a class="externalLink" href="https://ci.apache.org/builders/creadur-site-staging">creadur site builder</a>.</p>
<p>When this builds has completed successfully, review the content staged on <a class="externalLink" href="https://creadur.staging.apache.org/rat/index.html"> <tt>https://creadur.staging.apache.org/rat/index.html</tt></a>. If this looks fine then publish the staged content using the <a class="externalLink" href="https://www.apache.org/dev/cms.html">ASF Content Management System</a>.</p>
<p>Propagating the content to <a class="externalLink" href="https://creadur.apache.org/rat">production</a> may take a brief while (maybe 30 seconds) so please be patient a little longer.</p></div></div>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="Troubleshooting"></a>Troubleshooting</h3>
<ul>
<li>If you have issues with 'mvn site' failing try running 'mvn clean' then 'mvn install' before going back and running 'mvn site' again.</li>
<li>If you experience an Out of Memory error <b>java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space</b> when running 'mvn site' try setting 'export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m' or for Windows 'set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m' first on the command line (or in your profile) and then try 'mvn site' again.</li></ul></div></div>
