Hi guys, 🙏🏽apologies for the delay
I've added new page for Change Log that can be accessed from the navigation menu and docs

@krisnaw nice to see a pr for this!

Would it be possible to get the changelog which is stored in the root of the project so we don't have to update two changelogs each time? :)

[krisnaw]

Hi @olivernybroe let me try if that possible

[krisnaw]

Hi @olivernybroe do you have any advise? I've tried to point out the Changelog, but I think VuePress can't access the files outside the root directory.
I was thinking if possible to copy the Change log to Vuepress directory during the Travis CLI build

@krisnaw Thanks for working on this.

As far I know, it's not Travis which deploy the docs. (https://github.com/nunomaduro/phpinsights/blob/master/.travis.yml)

Did you try with symbolic link ? Or may the changelog page can grab the CHANGELOG.md content ?

@nunomaduro What your thought about this ? How the doc is deployed ?

[nunomaduro]

symbolic link maybe a good idea. Let's try it.

[krisnaw]

Hi guys, thanks for the advice

I've tried using symbolic link but no luck, it seems the web pack won't read the files.
I've tried this solution as well

Step to reproduce

1. From outside phpinsight directory, ln -s phpinsights/CHANGELOG.md phpinsights/docs/
2. run yarn run vuepress dev

[nunomaduro]

Hummmm, How about a composer post install/update that copy/pasts the changelog in that folder? And we can also use .gitignore to ignore the copy pasted file.

[olivernybroe]

What if you make the symbolic link in the other direction, so the root edition of the changelog is actually a symbolic link?

[olivernybroe]

Another solution is to do like vuepress own documentation does and have hyperlink to the .md file. That's a quick and easy solution, however not as pretty as having it actually in the docs.

[krisnaw]

So I've tried @nunomaduro advice by adding scripts like to the composer and its works.

        "post-root-package-install": [
            "@php -r \"copy('CHANGELOG.md', 'docs/CHANGELOG.md');\""
        ]

[nunomaduro]

@krisnaw Great, can you update the pull request?

[nunomaduro]

Thank you for this.
