Quick Start & Templates

The quickest way to start adding a new release note is to use the build in templates and generator.

git clone git@github.com:box/box-developer-changelog.git box-developer-changelog
cd box-developer-changelog
yarn install
cp .env.example .env
yarn new

The yarn new command will take you through a set of questions and will then create a new entry based on the standard template. A short template is also available when working with more complex changes.

Automatic contributions

This project has been set up to automatically pull in new release notes from the Box CLI, Java, Windows, and .NET SDKs, and UI elements.

When a new GitHub release is created for one of these repositories, a GitHub Action will send a notification to this repository which will trigger off another GitHub action in this project that pulls in the content and opens a new Pull Request.

Once the pull request is created, another process will kick off to test and lint the new content and automatically merge the pull request. This new content will then be compiled and pushed to the en branch, where it will be picked up by Netlify to be combined with all other developer content and pushed to developer.box.com.

A flow chart of this process

Translation

The content in this repository is automatically translated to Japanese by our in-house translation team. Once a day a snapshot will be made from the en to the en-snapshot branch. Then, once translated, the new Japanese content is pushed to the jp branch where it is picked up by Netlify and combined with all other translated content and pushed to ja.developer.box.com.
