This repository contains the source for the documentation for igv.js (https://github.com/igvteam/igv.js). The documentation is Markdown based and the website is generated using the MkDocs static site generator.

To get started, pull this repo and then:

  • conda env create -f igv.js-docs.yml to install the Conda environment with necessary dependencies.

  • conda activate igv.js-docs to activate the environment (the exact command might differ for Anaconda).

  • cd docs

  • mkdocs serve to start the MkDocs live-preview web server.

    • Note: if you get an error concerning jinja2 try the following pip install jinja2==3.0.0
  • mkdocs build to build the static site. A subdirectory named site will be created.

Note: you might prefer conda config --set auto_activate_base false

We're using Python Markdown in the MkDocs static site generator. With the extra package of extensions we're using it "mostly immitates" PHP Markdown.

Be sure to update the mkdocs.yml file if you add, remove, or rename any pages since that is where the TOC navigation is defined. Pages not specified there will be included in the site but not shown in the TOC.

We use the Windmill template for MkDocs.
