## π Project Structure
Inside of your Astro + Starlight project, you'll see the following folders and files:
```
.
βββ public/
βββ src/
β βββ assets/
β βββ content/
β β βββ docs/
β βββ content.config.ts
βββ astro.config.mjs
βββ package.json
βββ tsconfig.json
```
Starlight looks for `.md` or `.mdx` files in the `src/content/docs/` directory. Each file is exposed as a route based on its file name.
Images can be added to `src/assets/` and embedded in Markdown with a relative link.
Static assets, like favicons, can be placed in the `public/` directory.
## π§ Commands
All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
| Command | Action |
| :------------------------ | :----------------------------------------------- |
| `npm install` | Installs dependencies |
| `npm run dev` | Starts local dev server at `localhost:4321` |
| `npm run build` | Build your production site to `./dist/` |
| `npm run preview` | Preview your build locally, before deploying |
| `npm run astro ...` | Run CLI commands like `astro add`, `astro check` |
| `npm run astro -- --help` | Get help using the Astro CLI |

To update the submodules to the latest commit, run the following command:
```sh
git submodule update --recursive --remote
```

## Add docs
### Prepare the docs repository
The structure for the docs repository should be something like this:
```
docs/
βββ content
β βββ quickstart.mdx
β βββ Installation/
β β βββ from_source.mdx
β βββ ...
βββ assets (optional)
β βββ asset.png
β βββ asset2.png
...
```
- **content**: will contain all the documetation files. Folder name is case sensitive as it will be used as name for the sidebar.
- **assets**: will contain all the assets used in the documentation. This folder is optional, if you don't have any assets, you can skip it.
### Add the docs to the project
First of all, you need to add as submodule the docs repository.
To add a new submodule, run the following command:
```sh
git submodule add submodules/
```
Now, you need to create a symlink to the docs repository in the `src/content/docs` directory to the submodule.
```sh
cd src/content/docs
ln -s ../../../submodules//docs/content
```
Following the example, we will create a symlink to the `balius` documentation:
```sh
cd src/content/docs
ln -s ../../../submodules/balius/docs/content/ balius
```
### Add the assets to the project
If you have assets, you need to create a symlink to the assets repository in the `public/assets` directory to the submodule.
```sh
cd public/assets
ln -s ../../submodules//docs/assets
```
### Add docs to the sidebar
For this, we will modify `astro.config.mjs` file and add the new docs to the sidebar config.
```ts
{
label: '',
autogenerate: { directory: '//', collapsed: true },
},
```
- **label**: how this will appear on the dropdown menu on sidebar
- **autogenerate**: the folder that will be used to generate the sidebar. This directory is relative to the `src/content/docs` directory
### Add metadata to the docs
You can modify the label and other properties for a folder on the sidebar by using a _meta.yml file on the folder.
For more information, check the [Starlight auto sidebar](https://starlight-auto-sidebar.netlify.app/) plugin.
---
### Example adding `balius` documentation:
```sh
git submodule add -b feat/global-docs https://github.com/txpipe/balius submodules/balius
```
In this case, we are adding the `balius` documentation as a submodule in the `submodules/balius` directory taking the information from `feat/global-docs` branch.
Next, we will create the symlink to the `balius` documentation:
```sh
cd src/content/docs
ln -s ../../../submodules/balius/docs/content/ balius
```
We don't have assets folder, so we can skip this step.
Finally, we will modify the `astro.config.mjs` file to add the new docs to the sidebar:
```ts
{
label: 'Balius',
autogenerate: { directory: '/balius/', collapsed: true },
},
```
