CodeStream User Guide

This repo is dedicated to the CodeStream User Guide which is one in a series of similar docs sites across the CodeStream ecosystem.

This site is statically generated with Gatsby using themes created by the engineers of the Apollo Data Graph Platform. These themes depend, in part, on Space Kit.

Gatsby is built on top of Node and React.

This site utilizes markdown and MDX for much of its content.

Prerequisites

Install either the CodeStream dev_tools tool kit or make sure you have a recent version of Node. The dev_tools toolkit will be needed if you plan to use the extended features for deployment and builds.
Recommended VS Code extensions:
- ESLint
- Prettier
- MDX
- MDX Preview
- React Native Tools
- Rewrap

Installation

With dev_tools

Install the sandbox with a default name of csg
```
$ dt-sb-new-sandbox -yCD -t csguide -n csg
```
Load your sandbox into the current shell.
```
$ dt-load csg
```
Create a playground file with the default name of csg for your sandbox
```
$ dt-sb-create-playground -t sandbox/playgrounds/default.template
```

From this point forward, whenever you want to work on this project, simply load the playground from a new shell with the command dt-load-playground csg.

Without dev_tools

NOTE: Documentation and features will be limited without dev_tools.

Clone the repo, install the node modules and add the npm bin directory to your search path.

$ git clone https://github.com/teamcodestream/codestream-guide.git
$ cd codestream-guide/docs
$ npm install --no-save
$ export PATH=$PATH:node_modules/.bin

Running gatsby in development mode

All of your work should eventually land on the develop branch, which is the default branch on the origin.

Run gatsby in development mode from the docs/ directory.
```
$ gatsby develop
```
Preview the site at http://localhost:8000

Consistent CodeStream Documentation Sites

In an effort to make consistent sites across all products in our platform, there are some files and folders in the docs/src/ that are meant to be shared. Ultimately, it would be nice to package them in a codestream theme to be used on top of the apollo themes but that will take some work.

For now, they are:

docs/src/
      |-- codestream-config.js        # global codestream config data
      |-- assets/codeStream/          # global codestream assets (icons, ...)
      |-- components/                 # component overrides
      |-- gatsby-theme-apollo-core/   # component shadowning from Apollo core theme
      |-- gatsby-theme-apollo-docs/   # component shadowning from Apollo docs theme

To create a tarball with these files, run csg-make-cs-theme-pkg
