[Qemu-devel] [qemu-web PATCH] Import historical documentation


From: Daniel P . Berrangé
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [qemu-web PATCH] Import historical documentation
Date: Mon, 3 Dec 2018 16:41:05 +0000

The files included are taken from formal builds of previous versions
of QEMU, going back to 2.0.0

  - qemu-doc.html
  - qemu-qmp-ref.html
  - qemu-ga-ref.html

To import them all content outside of <body></body> is stripped and
replaced by a trivial jekyll header. This causes the rendered docs
to get consistent styling and navbar heading.

This patch shows what it would be like if we just copied the
pre-rendered QEMU docs into qemu-web for each major release....

...it would be large. 2.0.0 was only 300 KB in size, but latest
3.0.0 release has 1.3 MB of docs. So we'd be adding about 4 MB
of docs to qemu-web each year if we committed them.

This feels undesirable as a strategy.

I trimmed this mail to cut out the .html files to avoid spamming
the list. If you want to see the full commit it is here:

   
https://github.com/berrange/qemu-web/commit/c5f6d0f8664d7edd016f469f0709caec8360f783

At least in terms of the end result for users, I think it is
positive.

Other ideas

 1. Upload built docs to a lookaside directory on the download
    site when making a release, then have a jekyll plugin to
    pull them in. Extra work for the person making releases
    principally.

 2. Have a jekyll plugin that uses docker env to build each
    release docs from pristine tarballs. Would need caching
    to avoid burning CPU cycles in each web update. Reliably
    building older QEMU versions gets increasingly troublesome
