Semantic Docs

This folder contains the templates used to generate the static website for semantic-ui.com

How to Use

To install DocPad, the static site generator used to create the HTML for the site.

npm install -g docpad
docpad install eco;
docpad update; docpad upgrade;

Generating SUI for Docs

Before running the server, you will need to build your UI files for the docs.

First, be sure your docs are in the right location.
For example, if your Semantic UI folder is under vendor/, like this...

vendor/
    SemanticUI/
    ...
    ...

Then you should put docs/ under vendor/, so it looks like this:

vendor/
    docs/
    SemanticUI/
    ...
    ...

If you haven't run npm install in your ./SemanticUI folder yet, do that now. Next, run the commands to build the docs:

# "ui" can be any folder that contains the SUI build files
cd ./ui
gulp build-docs

By default, docs build to build-docs/ (from the adjacent folder docs/). The command must be run from your UI folder! (In the above example, we use ./ui.)

To configure a different docs location, modify tasks/config/docs.js accordingly.

Running the Server

Start the docs server (and generate docs):

# run from inside docs folder that will now contain the compiled docs 
# windows users can then navigate to http://localhost:9778
docpad run

Watch for changes from your UI folder, and serve to the docs instance:

gulp serve-docs
