<p>This repository is used for storing (some) content for <a href="https://james.apache.org">Apache James</a> website.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It&#8217;s also used to build and publish the website.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>We use <a href="https://antora.org">Antora</a> as a tool to manage and generate the website.
We use <a href="https://gradle.org">Gradle</a> as a tool to drive / automate the tasks for generating, aggregating and publishing the website.</p>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_why_antora"><a class="anchor" href="#_why_antora"></a>Why Antora?</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Antora lets us aggregate multiple documentation sources, across multiple versions and publish them as a single website.
Documentation for each Apache James component is kept and versioned alongside the code for it.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_why_gradle"><a class="anchor" href="#_why_gradle"></a>Why Gradle?</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Gralde allows us to autoamte the tasks that we do when publishing a website.
We write gradle tasks for building and publishing the website.
We can run those tasks locally and inside our CI infrastructure: <a href="https://builds.apache.org">Apache Builds</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>More specifically, we use Gradle to:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Download and install a specific version of <a href="https://nodejs.org">NodeJS</a> using <a href="https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin">Gradle Node Plugin</a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Install a local version of Antora</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Use a Gradle task to call build the website with Antora</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>By using this specific flow, you only need <code>git</code>, <code>Java</code> and shell access to build the website.
All other dependencies are installed automatically by Gradle.
Even Gradle is downloaded and installed using the Gradle wrapper script.</p>

<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The documentation website is based on <a href="https://antora.org">Antora</a>.
We have added <a href="https://gitlab.com/antora/antora-ui-default/">antora-ui-default</a> project as a git subtree under <code>antora-ui</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p><code>./gradlew :antora-ui:build</code> will assemble the <code>antora-ui/build/ui-bundle.zip</code> archive required for the website.
All the steps are automated as Gradle tasks in that project.
All you have to do is change the css and html files and then rebuild the project.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The antora-ui project has a preview mode: <code>/.gradlew gulpPreviewTheme</code></p>
