SAML: Document 2.0 as version (#22960)
Casually drops 2.0 in a couple of places in the docs so that a reader looking for information about supported SAML version can find it. Since SAML hasn't had any releases since 2005, we don't have to make a big deal out of it.

Building the docs locally

When you contribute to documentation, it is a good practice to build the docs on your local machine to make sure your changes appear as you expect. This README explains the process for doing that.

Requirements

Docker >= 2.1.0.3

Build the doc site

  1. In the command line, make sure you are in the docs folder: cd docs.
  2. Run make docs. This launches a preview of the docs website at http://localhost:3002/docs/grafana/latest/ which will refresh automatically when changes to content in the sources directory are made.

Content guidelines

Edit content in the sources directory.

Use the Hugo shortcode relref any time you are linking to other internal docs pages.

Edit the side menu

Edit sources/menu.yaml to make changes to the sidebar. Stop and rerun the make docs command for changes to take effect.

Add images

Images are currently hosted in the grafana/website repo.


Deploy changes to grafana.com

When a PR is merged to master with changes in the docs directory, those changes are automatically synched to the grafana/website repo on the docs-grafana branch.

In order to make those changes live, open a PR in the website repo that merges the docs-grafana branch into master. Then follow the publishing guidelines in that repo.
