GitLab CI

This project's static Pages are built by GitLab CI, following the steps defined in .gitlab-ci.yml:

# requiring the environment of NodeJS 8.9.x LTS (carbon)
image: node:8.9

# add 'node_modules' to cache for speeding up builds
cache:
  paths:
    - node_modules/ # Node modules and dependencies

before_script:
  - npm install gitbook-cli -g # install gitbook
  - gitbook fetch latest # fetch latest stable version
  - gitbook install # add any requested plugins in book.json
  #- gitbook fetch pre # fetch latest pre-release version
  #- gitbook fetch 2.6.7 # fetch specific version

# the 'pages' job will deploy and build your site to the 'public' path
pages:
  stage: deploy
  script:
    - gitbook build . public # build to public path
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - public
  only:
    - master # this job will affect only the 'master' branch

Did you fork this project?

If you forked this project for your own use, please go to your project's Settings and remove the forking relationship, which won't be necessary unless you want to contribute back to the upstream project.

Troubleshooting

1. CSS is missing! That means two things:

   Either that you have wrongly set up the CSS URL in your templates, or your static generator has a configuration option that needs to be explicitly set in order to serve static assets under a relative URL.
