Versioning automation

[Karan-S-dev]

Hi All,

I created a docs site using docusaurus. In our site, we are having more that 100 products documentation. I was able to do versioning using ,"npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.1.0".

But moving forward, I can't do manually versioning for all the products. So is there a way to automate versioning. Like without using npm, is there a way to do versioning?

If you need more clarity on the question also you can ask.

Thanks in advance.

I don't understand what you mean by "manual versioning".

When you run npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.1.0 is it really manual? Because Docusaurus does things for you 🤷‍♂️

If you need to version 100 products at once, you could as well run a script that runs npm run docusaurus docs:version 1.1.0" 100 times for each product? (I assume you use multiple docs plugins instances?)

Note the docusaurus docs:version CLI is just a convenience tool. You could easily do this all by yourself. What it does is just:

• copy docs to versioned_docs/version-1.1.0
• copy sidebars.js to versioned_sidebars/version-1.0.0-sidebars.json
• add "1.0.0" in versions.json

Not manual, When i run npm command it does all the things automatically. Thats great but now we are trying to automate our site.
So in place of npm command, is there a way for me to do versioning or npm is the only preferred way?

Sorry, but I have no idea what you mean. What does it mean to "automate your site"? Why can't a script run npm commands exactly?
