This website is built using Docusaurus.

Scaladoc
One of the goals of Bitcoin-S is having useful and well-formatted Scaladoc comments on classes, objects and functions. Here are some useful resources on how to properly format your Scaladoc comments:
- Scaladoc for library authors
- Guidelines used by the official Scala language Scaladoc
- Alvin Alexander guide on writing Scaladoc
To generate Scaladocs:
$ sbt
> unidoc
This gets placed in website/static/api
. When viewing the Docusaurus site the generated Scaladocs
appear under the API tab in the header bar,
or in the "API reference" link in the footer.
Running the site locally
For running the website locally, you'll need:
yarn
(https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install-ci/)sbt
(https://www.scala-sbt.org/1.0/docs/Setup.html)
In case you want to contribute substantial structural changes to the website, we suggest to read Docusaurus' documentation first.
You can now build and launch the website using these commands:
cd website
yarn install # only the first time, to install the dependencies
yarn start
In a separate shell:
$ sbt
> doc/mdoc --watch
The above commands compiles our Mdoc Markdown files every time you change them, and puts them in the correct directory for Docusaurus to find them.
Now visit http://localhost:3000/ and you should see a local version of the website.
Adding a new page
Whenever you add a new markdown page to the documentation, you'll have to manually include it in the side menu.
You can do this by editing the website/sidebars.json
file. The name to use is
the id
specified in the page metadata (see the existing pages for an example).
Publishing the site
$ sbt
> docs/publishWebsite
This command first generates Scaladocs, then invokes
docs/docusaurusPublishGhPages
, which in turn compile our mdoc
files, build the site and push them to GH pages.
Before running those commands, you might have to change a few constants in
siteConfig.js
. These are specifed in the comments of that file.
