Apache Pulsar Website and Documentation

This repository contains the Apache Pulsar website source code and Apache Pulsar documentation.

Apache Pulsar is an open-source, distributed messaging and streaming platform built for the cloud.

Quick start: Updating documentation and previewing changes

Make changes to the documentation in the docs directory.

To preview the changes, run the following command (prerequisites):

./preview.sh

This command starts a local web server on port 3000 and opens a browser window pointing to the website.

Updating versioned docs

When your documentation changes apply to existing supported versions, you should update both the versioned documentation in the versioned_docs directory and the documentation in the docs directory.

# List all supported major.minor.x versions
./scripts/docs-tool.sh supported_versions

After committing the changes for the docs directory, you can use the docs-tool to apply the changes to the versioned docs. This tool is a wrapper around git diff and patch. If the patch is not applied correctly, you will have to manually apply the changes to the versioned docs.

./scripts/docs-tool.sh apply_changes_to_versioned_docs

Markdown placeholders

Markdown files under docs/ and versioned_docs/version-*/ are run through two preprocessors at build time:

  • @pulsar:version@, @pulsar:rpm:client@, @pulsar:apidoc:python@, etc. — version-aware tokens. The values come from versions.json, site-baseurls.js, and data/release-*.js. See src/config/pulsarVariables.ts for the full list.
  • {@inject:javadoc:Name:org/...}, {@inject:endpoint|GET|/admin/...} — link expansion for Javadoc, GitHub, REST endpoints. See src/server/markdownPreprocessors/inject.ts.

To reference the same values from React components, import from @site/src/config/pulsarVariables — no placeholder is needed in .js/.tsx.

Website not getting updated?

If the https://pulsar.apache.org website doesn't get updated, check the latest GitHub Actions workflow run for the main branch. If it succeeded, the problem could be that the git history for the asf-site-next branch is too large and needs to be truncated. Here are the commands to perform that task:

git clone --depth 1 -b asf-site-next https://github.com/apache/pulsar-site pulsar-site-static
cd pulsar-site-static
git checkout --orphan asf-site-next-truncated
git add -A
git commit -m "History truncated"
git push -f origin HEAD:asf-site-next
