docs-tools holds all common build system components for MongoDB documenting projects (e.g. the MongoDB Manual, MongoDB Ecosystem Documentation, etc.) These tools include: Sphinx extensions, the meta-build system, themes, deployment and orchestration scripts, and scripts that generate common restructured text elements.

The goal of docs-tools is to totally remove all programs from the documentation source trees to facilitate maintenance of these components in the context of a multi-branch and multi-repository documentation project.

This document explains the components and operations of the build system, and serves as a guide for anyone who wants to maintain a MongoDB Documentation-like project.

This directory contains conventional Sphinx extensions, required for producing and referencing MongoDB documentation projects. This includes the extensions for the MongoDB Domain to cross reference MongoDB objects (database commands, shell methods, database output, etc.) as well as custom admonition and directive types.

These are standard Sphinx themes customized for MongoDB documentation projects, centralized here for ease of use across projects.

dtf is a consistency testing framework for documentation projects to provide ways of enforcing conventions in documentation. The content of these scripts just include the test logic, and not the testing running architecture, or data used to define testable situations.

The scripts in the bin directory include common components and logic shared between bootstrapping operations, fabric scripts, and meta-build scripts.
