Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-4500:
---------------------------------------
Just to clarify a couple these points, the short comings may be more of a misunderstanding
than an issue with gitbook. The main takeaways though of having more control over pdf
generation, having more than 2 published books, etc. remain valid.
There is no way to check the documentation formatting external to the
GitBook.
You can follow the local build instructions and use "gitbook serve" -
https://github.com/teiid/teiid-documents
I am sure there is way to export, but that may need human to do
that?
The appropriate export is just a link.
I do also like Infinispans style sheets better than the current
default GitBook's, we should adapt them too.
The style isn't really due to GitBook per se other than it's mostly the default.
You mainly need to configure the book.json with whatever additional themes and options you
want.
Make documents to capable of building outside the GitBooks

Key: TEIID-4500
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-4500
Project: Teiid
Issue Type: Task
Components: Documentation
Reporter: Ramesh Reddy
Assignee: Steven Hawkins
Fix For: 9.2
Currently Teiid documentation is only built by automated process by GitBooks. However,
this causes couple issues
* There is no way to check the documentation formatting external to the GitBook.
* Documents need to be always hosted by the Gitbook. I am sure there is way to export,
but that may need human to do that? Going forward we would need a automated way if one
wants to bundle the documents.
* Gitbook only allows two books for free, we already against this limit with no
resolution with the paid route.
Thus it may be better we also have alternative ways to generate final documents, and be
able to host on
teiid.org. I find an example with Infinispan documents, we just need to
mimic what they are doing
>> We have also implemented generation of PDFs via the
> > asciidoctor-maven-plugin with optimized post-processing via GhostScript
> > (which shrinks the size of the PDFs to a 1/4 of the size).
> > Look at [2] and [3] to see how that is done.

also look at their google-analytics stuff, that is very useful to have. I do also like
Infinispans style sheets better than the current default GitBook's, we should adapt
them too.
