Instantly beautify your Github repositories' README.md with DocumentUp. This site has been generated with it.
Essentially, it parses your readme's markdown into a clean and simple documentation website. Made especially for your gh-pages branch, all you need is a single index.html file that includes the DocumentUp script.*
* Some configuration required
Simple. Put this recommended setup in your repository's gh-pages' branch's index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title></title>
<script src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/documentup/latest.min.js"></script>
<script>
DocumentUp.document("username/repository");
</script>
</head>
<body></body>
</html>Make sure to change the "username/repository" to the repository's name and user's username.
Recommended
Use CDNJS with this script src: http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/documentup/latest.min.js
Also good
Download it from this repository There's a minified version of it named documentup.min.js
DocumentUp, in its simplest form, accepts a single argument. A string representing a public repository's "route":
DocumentUp.document("username/repository");It can be enhanced with an option object like so:
DocumentUp.document({
repo: "username/repository",
color: "green"
});repo (String) required
Github repository in the form of username/repository
name (String) default: repository name
Name of your project. It'll appear in the header of the sidebar. Defaults to the repository substring of the repo option.
color (String) default: "#336699"
CSS-like color representing the color for the links both in the sidebar and the content.
issues (Boolean or String) default: true
Adds a link to the sidebar for the issues tab of the repository if true. Also accepts a string if your issues are managed elsewhere.
travis (Boolean) default: false
Indicate if the project is being tested by Travis-CI. If true, it'll add the small travis badge in the sidebar.
twitter (String or Array of strings) default: null
Add follow buttons for one or more Twitter accounts to your sidebar. Useful to gather followers.
Just like you normally would. DocumentUp also supports "Github Flavored Markdown" and we recommend you use it for syntax highlighting.
h1's (# in markdown) will appear as first level navigation in the sidebar while h2's (##) will appear under them as sub-navigation.
Example:
# Project name / Title (won't appear in the sidebar)
Some intro text if you want.
## Top level-navigation
### Sub-navigation
#### This wouldn't show up in the sidebar
All still very much a work in progress, run the tests in your browser here: spec/index.html
