-We recommend installing `rdme` in your project rather than doing a global installation so you don't run into unexpected behavior with mismatching versions. We also suggest using the `--save-dev` flag since `rdme` is typically used as part of a CI process and is unlikely to be running in your production application:
+#### Installing `rdme` to a Project
+
+The recommended approach for shared projects is to install `rdme` in your project's dependencies. That way you don't run into unexpected behavior with mismatching versions of `rdme`. We also suggest using the `--save-dev` flag since `rdme` is typically used as part of a CI process and is unlikely to be running in your production application:
```sh
npm install rdme --save-dev
```
-Once installed in your project, we recommend using `npx` (which is included if you have `npm` installed) to prefix all of your CLI commands. For example:

To ensure you're getting the latest features and security updates, we recommend using a tool like [Dependabot](https://docs.github.com/code-security/supply-chain-security/keeping-your-dependencies-updated-automatically/about-dependabot-version-updates) to keep `rdme` (and your other dependencies) up-to-date.
-### Authentication
-
-For usage in CI environments (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Travis CI, etc.) or if you're working with multiple ReadMe projects, we recommend providing your project API key via the `--key` option (instead of the configuration file authentication described below).
+#### Installing `rdme` to Your Local Machine
-For local CLI usage with a single project, you can authenticate `rdme` to your ReadMe project. This will save your API key to a local configuration file (`~/.config/configstore/rdme-production.json`) so you will not have to provide the `--key` option to commands that require it.
+The simplest way to use `rdme` is to install it globally:
```sh
-rdme login
+npm install -g rdme
```
-`rdme whoami` is also available to you to determine who you are logged in as, and to what project, as well as `rdme logout` for logging out of that account.
+With a global installation, you'll be able to run `rdme` within any directory on your local machine. If you log in once, you can quickly access your project without having to remember your API key (see the [Authentication](#authentication) section below).

+Do you have Markdown files stored on GitHub? With [the `rdme` GitHub Action](https://docs.readme.com/docs/rdme), you can sync them to ReadMe every time they're updated in GitHub. Let's go over how to set this up!
+
+## "Automagical" Workflow File Generation πͺ
+
+To set up a GitHub Actions workflow for syncing a directory of Markdown docs, the fastest and easiest way to do so is by running the following command on your local machine:
+
+```sh
+rdme docs [path-to-directory-of-markdown] --github
+```
+
+This will scan the directory for Markdown files, sync them to ReadMe, and then create your GitHub Actions workflow file. Once that's done, create your [repository secret](url), push your workflow file to GitHub, and get syncing! π
+
+## Constructing a GitHub Actions Workflow File By Hand π¨
+
+> π§ Wait β thereβs an easier way to do this!
+>
+> The information below is useful if you have experience using GitHub Actions, but for most folks, we recommend using the steps [detailed above](#automagical-workflow-file-generation-πͺ). The `rdme` CLI will ask you a few questions before automatically creating the GitHub Actions workflow file for you, complete with every parameter you need to get syncing.
+
+In order to construct the file by hand, you'll first want to grab a project version to ensure that your docs sync to the right place in your developer hub. That version will be passed via the `--version` flag. See below for a full example:
+
+```yml
+name: Sync `documentation` directory to ReadMe
+
+# Run workflow for every push to the `main` branch
+on:
+ push:
+ branches:
+ - main
+
+jobs:
+ sync:
+ runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+ steps:
+ - name: Checkout this repo
+ uses: actions/checkout@v3
+
+ # Run GitHub Action to sync docs in `documentation` directory
+ - name: GitHub Action
+ # We recommend specifying a fixed version, i.e. @RDME_VERSION
+ # Docs: https://docs.github.com/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#example-using-versioned-actions
+ uses: readmeio/rdme@RDME_VERSION
+ with:
+ rdme: docs ./documentation --key=${{ secrets.README_API_KEY }} --version=2.0
+```
+
+In the example above, every push to the `main` branch will sync the Markdown contents of the `documentation` directory to version 2.0 of your ReadMe project.

The `rdme` CLI will ask you a few questions before automatically creating the GitHub Actions workflow file for you, complete with every parameter you need to get syncing.
+
+In order to construct the file by hand, you'll first want to obtain a unique API definition ID from ReadMe so we know which definition you want to update on subsequent re-syncs. You can obtain this API definition ID in one of several ways, but we'll dive into two below: uploading a file directly into the ReadMe dashboard and using the `rdme` CLI locally.
+
+
+Uploading a file
+
+Follow [these instructions](https://docs.readme.com/docs/openapi#file-upload) on uploading a new OpenAPI file in the dashboard. Once the file is uploaded, you'll see the following in the API Reference settings of your dashboard (the red outline is where you'll find your API definition ID):

CLI
+
+Alternatively, you can obtain the API definition ID by running the following `rdme` CLI command on your local machine:
+
+```sh
+rdme openapi [path-to-file.json]
+```
+
+Once you follow the prompts and upload your OpenAPI definition, you'll receive a confirmation message that looks something like this:

+
+To update your OpenAPI definition, run the following:

-##### Omitting the File Path
-
-If you run `rdme` within a directory that contains your OpenAPI or Swagger definition, you can omit the file path. `rdme` will then look for JSON or YAML files (including in sub-directories) that contain a top-level [`openapi`](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/main/versions/3.1.0.md#fixed-fields) or [`swagger`](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/main/versions/2.0.md#fixed-fields) property.

-> **Note**
-> `rdme` will not scan anything in the following:

-> - Any files/directories specified in `.gitignore` files (including any `.gitignore` files in subdirectories, if they exist)
-
-
-```sh

-
##### Override the Working Directory
By default, `rdme` bundles all [references](https://swagger.io/docs/specification/using-ref/) with paths based on the directory that `rdme` is being run in. You can override the working directory using the `--workingDirectory` option, which can be helpful for bundling certain external references (see [here](__tests__/__fixtures__/relative-ref-oas/petstore.json) for an example file).

This will allow you preview the changes without actually creating/updating any docs in ReadMe, which can be extremely useful for initial setup (oh, and we have [comprehensive debugging options](#troubleshooting) available as well!). To enable dry run mode, use the `--dryRun` flag:
```sh
-rdme docs [path-to-directory-of-markdown] --version={project-version} --dryRun

```
The command output will indicate whether each page is being created or updated alongside all processed page attributes.
