Online documentation is out of date

[kfl]

Description

The API reference at http://fsprojects.github.io/FSharpx.Extras/reference/index.html seems to be out of date,

For instance, the last version in the Release Notes at http://fsprojects.github.io/FSharpx.Extras/release-notes.html is 2.2.1 - 29.01.2017.

Similarly, the Prelude module is listed to be part of the FSharpx.Functional namespace at http://fsprojects.github.io/FSharpx.Extras/reference/fsharpx-functional-prelude.html. Where is should have been listed as part of the FSharpx namespace as it has been since the 2.3.1 release.

Looks like the release notes have been replaced with GitHub releases
https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharpx.Extras/releases
Normally nuget.org is the best way to get a high level on the versions being used IRL https://www.nuget.org/packages/fsharpx.extras#versions-body-tab

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. It is not a big problem that the release notes are old (I know where to find them on github). I merely gave a link to the release notes to point out when the online documentation was last updated. You can get the same information if you look at the gh-pages branch, where you can seem that the online documentation was last updated seven years ago.

However, I think it is sad that online documentation isn't updated, so that it's currently pointing to old (misleading) examples and outdated API documentation. Especially since the docs directory seems to be maintained (and has cleaned up the examples) and that the API documentation is also updated.

👍 I'm just a lurker (and have never added a ref to it personally!)
Ultimately the answer is obviously for somebody to automate the push (repos here have access to GHA)...

Hi, if I remember correctly, I made an attempt at fixing the docs and releasing it but failed and had to rollback (I don't recall the blocking issue). If you are that somebody, then I can cheer, review the PR and hope for you to be luckier than I was at the previous attempt.

edit: I will give it another try myself - this https://fsprojects.github.io/FSharp.Formatting/upgrade.html looks promising

If you are interested then I recently set up generation of online documentation via fsdocs with GHA: https://github.com/diku-dk/diku-canvas/blob/main/.github/workflows/package_and_docs.yml

Although I'm using the new github-pages deployment method where you are using the gh-pages branch method.

Hi,

I just fixed the issue that bugged me in the past and published new docs :)
