How to add images to the docs

In quick bullet points:

• You can add images to the docs.

• Look for examples of Markdown image syntax. For example, docs/administering/faq.md

• Set the IMG SRC to point at whatever URL you like, preferably a Sandstorm static publishing URL that you own.

• When your pull request gets merged, @paulproteus will copy them to a Davros grain he controls on oasis.sandstorm.io.

The reason for all this is that images can bloat a git repository a lot, so for now, we don't store the images the main Sandstorm git repo.

How to deploy to docs.sandstorm.io

• Ask Asheesh to share a particular GitWeb Pages grain with you. It's located on https://alpha.sandstorm.io/.

• Do a git clone of that repository into a directory, like:

git clone https://my_repo@alpha-api.sandstorm.io/ tmp/sandstorm-docs

• Run generate.sh to re-generate the docs, then commit them to this git repo.

PATH=$PWD/tmp/docs-virtualenv/bin:$PATH bash docs/generate.sh -d tmp/sandstorm-docs

• Run generate.sh with the -p flag to actually push them to the live site.

PATH=$PWD/tmp/docs-virtualenv/bin:$PATH bash docs/generate.sh -d tmp/sandstorm-docs -p
