This repository contains the docs for Exist's API, which live at developer.exist.io. They're built on Slate, so I've left the Slate readme contents here so you have instructions for building your own copy.
Slate helps you create beautiful API documentation. Think of it as an intelligent, responsive documentation template for your API.
You're going to need:
- Linux or OS X — Windows may work, but is unsupported.
- Ruby, version 1.9.3 or newer
- Bundler — If Ruby is already installed, but the
bundlecommand doesn't work, just rungem install bundlerin a terminal.
- Fork this repository on Github.
- Clone your forked repository (not our original one) to your hard drive with
git clone https://github.com/YOURUSERNAME/slate.git cd slate- Install all dependencies:
bundle install - Start the test server:
bundle exec middleman server
Or use the included Dockerfile! (must install Docker first)
docker build -t slate .
docker run -d -p 4567:4567 slateYou can now see the docs at http://localhost:4567. Whoa! That was fast!
Note: if you're using the Docker setup on OSX, the docs will be
availalable at the output of boot2docker ip instead of localhost:4567.
Now that Slate is all set up your machine, you'll probably want to learn more about editing Slate markdown, or how to publish your docs.
Just submit a issue to the Slate Github if you need any help. And, of course, feel free to submit pull requests with bug fixes or changes.
Slate was built by Robert Lord while at TripIt.
