Reviews

All documentation pull requests automatically add the @obs-docs team as a reviewer.

Backporting

Pull requests should be tagged with the target version of the Elastic Stack along with any relevant backport labels. In general, we only backport documentation changes to live stack versions. For manual backports, we recommend using the backport tool to easily open backport PRs. If you need help, ping @obs-docs and we'd be happy to handle the backport process for you.

Build

To build the docs:

  1. Check out the elastic/docs repository, along with any repositories that contain source files.

  2. Run the build_docs script, passing in the path to the index.asciidoc and resource paths to other repos that contain source files. For example, to build the Observability Guide and open it in the browser, run:

../docs/build_docs --doc ./docs/en/observability/index.asciidoc --chunk 1 --resource ../beats/libbeat/docs --resource ../apm-server/docs/guide --open

The above command assumes that elastic/docs, elastic/beats and elastic/apm-server are checked out into the same parent directory.

If you prefer to use aliases, you can load the elastic/docs/doc_build_aliases.sh file, which has the resources defined for you.
