- Move "Pre-Release Validation" to step 2 (right after Changelog) and fold the
"Regenerate translated documentation" sub-step (make docs-translate/build)
into it, so code checks and doc regeneration happen together, early.
- Run `make new` as the very first action (step 1), before generating
dist/changes.md, and drop it from "Build Archives". `make new` wipes AND
recreates dist/, so running it in the build step deleted the changes.md
generated in step 1; main/lb don't depend on new and their final `clean`
only removes TEMP_DIR, so changes.md now survives to the GitHub Release step.
- Renumber sections and update the make-new command reference.
Fix Markdown-mangling artifacts the free web engine (yandex) produced in the
committed docs/ru, and regenerate the whole tree cleanly (0 fallbacks):
- Sentinel format @@N@@ -> {N}. MT engines are trained to preserve curly
format-string placeholders, so {N} survives code-heavy lines where @@N@@ (and
ZZZ…ZZZ, which also duplicated its Z) were split/moved — e.g. the stray
"@0@@" in the FAQ and "load balancerZ" in the README are gone.
- Possessive: a trailing English `'s` is consumed INTO the masked span and
dropped on restore. Every sentinel format breaks when a bare `'s` sits right
after it, and Russian has no possessive `'s`.
- Validate + retry: after restore, any leftover brace fragment triggers a retry
(the engine is non-deterministic); after a few failures the line stays English
so a broken token is never emitted.
- Glossary += KeyDB, yt-dlp, Ubuntu, iptables, MAGSCAN.
Regenerated docs/ru (37 files, translators/yandex): no residual sentinels,
mkdocs build --strict clean.
CI translation was slow, so move it out of GitHub Actions: docs/ru is now a
committed, generated tree refreshed LOCALLY before a release; CI only builds it.
- pages.yml: drop the setup-python/cache/translate steps — the workflow now just
installs the build toolchain and runs `mkdocs build --strict` on the committed
en+ru trees.
- .gitignore: stop ignoring docs/ru (now committed); keep site/ + .docs-cache/.
- Split deps: docs/requirements.txt = build only (mkdocs-material, static-i18n,
used by CI); tools/docs/requirements.txt = translators (local-only).
- Makefile: docs-venv installs both; docs-build/docs-serve no longer translate
(translation is the deliberate `make docs-translate` release step).
- updates_checklist.md: new "Regenerate translated documentation" step
(make docs-translate + docs-build, commit docs/ru with the release commit).
- Commit the generated docs/ru (37 files, translators/yandex).
Rule: edit ONLY docs/en; docs/ru is generated — never hand-edit it.
Replace the hand-maintained Docsify site (parallel docs/en + docs/ru trees
that had already drifted) with a MkDocs Material build where English is the
single source of truth and Russian is generated at build time.
Engine & structure
- mkdocs.yml: Material theme, site_url for the /XC_VM/ Pages subpath, and a
two-tab information architecture — User Guide (administration, API/Swagger,
UI translations, diagnostics, info/FAQ) vs Developer Guide (architecture,
workflow, security, integrations, build). Files are NOT moved — the split is
nav-only, so URLs and cross-links stay stable.
- mkdocs-static-i18n (folder mode): English at root, Russian under /ru/, with a
language switcher. `mkdocs build --strict` validates every link/anchor.
Translation pipeline (tools/docs/translate.py)
- Engine-agnostic via DOCS_TRANSLATE_PROVIDER: translators (free, no API key —
default), anthropic, deepl, or noop. Per-file sha256 cache so only changed
English files are re-translated. Markdown-safe: code, URLs, HTML tags and
glossary terms (XC_VM, FFmpeg, HLS, ...) are masked and never translated.
A file whose translation fails falls back to English so the build never breaks.
- docs/ru is generated and gitignored — never committed. It is produced locally
(`make docs-serve` / `docs-build`) and in CI.
CI & tooling
- pages.yml: build-then-upload (setup-python -> install -> restore .docs-cache
with restore-keys -> translate -> mkdocs build --strict -> deploy), replacing
the verbatim docs/ upload.
- Makefile: docs-venv / docs-translate / docs-build / docs-serve.
- docs/requirements.txt; .gitignore for docs/ru, site/, .docs-cache.
Migration details
- Removed Docsify control files (index.html, _navbar.md, _sidebar.md, .nojekyll)
and de-Docsify-ed body links in 6 English files (en-us/ aliases -> relative,
swagger _media paths, stripped ':ignore' link syntax).
- Preserved the two Russian-only planning docs (no English source) by moving
them into docs/adr/ as *.ru.md (repo-internal, excluded from the site).
`php -l` syntax checking is redundant with the real linters/validators (PHPStan
parses the code, PHP-CS-Fixer and the PHPUnit bootstrap also fail on parse
errors). Remove the script and every reference to it:
- Makefile: drop the `syntax_check` target and its .PHONY entry.
- CI (ci.yml): drop the dedicated `lint` (PHP Syntax Check) job.
- Release workflows (build-release, build_pre-release): drop the "Check syntax"
step from the Quality Gate (PHPUnit remains).
- CONTRIBUTING.md: replace the syntax-check pre-commit guidance with the real
checks (make dev-tools / phpstan / cs / gates / phpunit).
- updates_checklist (en/ru): replace `make syntax_check` with the quality-check
suite and drop the stale "Security scan" snippet that referenced the removed
script and a non-existent tools/run_scan.sh (Semgrep runs automatically in CI).
Overhaul the Docsify documentation (English + Russian) so it matches the current
codebase and follows one consistent pattern.
Content accuracy (post-migration):
- Rewrite development/autoloader.md to PSR-4 / Composer (the old XC_Autoloader
scanner, igbinary tmp/cache/autoload_map and registerDirectories are gone).
- PascalCase every source path (src/core -> src/Core, domain/Stream, cli/Commands,
public/Controllers, Infrastructure/Redis, ...) across all docs.
- Replace the removed autoload.php references with vendor/autoload.php
(build_system, bootstrap-contexts, error-handling, modules).
- ssl-generation: note that the installer now auto-generates a unique self-signed
certificate before Nginx starts.
Common pattern (Clean & uniform):
- Strip emoji from headings; remove the in-page Navigation blocks (the Docsify
sidebar already provides navigation).
- One H1 + intro per doc; uniform "Related files" / "Связанные файлы" section,
added to the code-centric docs that lacked it.
Structure:
- Remove the empty stray docs/api/; move updates_checklist.md into builds/;
link the previously-orphaned ucs-integration.md.
- Regroup the sidebars (split the oversized guides group into Developer Guides /
Security & Access / Integrations; fold builds into Build & Release).
Augment:
- dev-workflow: Local Setup (make dev-tools) + Quality Checks (phpstan, cs, gates).
- build_system: Composer Dependencies section (committed prod-only vendor,
committed lock, dev tools via composer install, no build-time vendor step).
en/ru parity:
- Apply the same structure, fixes and pattern to docs/ru/ (translated), including
a new Russian ucs-integration.md. The en and ru file sets are now identical.
