Phinx: Docs site isn't updated

Created on 5 Dec 2019  Â·  16Comments  Â·  Source: cakephp/phinx

The site http://docs.phinx.org is getting out of date. Did something break or is it updated manually?

https://docs.phinx.com is still way out of date. It's being built through the readthedocs.org platform and it looks like it was last synced about a year ago: https://readthedocs.org/projects/phinx/builds/.

If the intention is to have everyone use https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/phinx.html, it might be worth deleting it from RTD so that it stops being a top result on google.

Shouldnt this redirect to the new docs then? @markstory

I don't know how or where the hosting for docs.phinx.org is setup unfortunately.

Fixed now

Hmmmm I think I'll do two things.

  1. Point the Phinx marketing site (https://phinx.org), directly to https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/phinx.html
  2. Setup a 301 from docs.phinx.org directly to https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/phinx.html

Sound good?

Just thinking out loud - the only problem with that approach is we'd need to remember to bump the CakePHP Version number in the URL for every major release.

Maybe we could also point it to a entry point that auto redirects to latest major

https://book.cakephp.org/en/phinx.html

e.g. would then show or find+redirect the latest
@markstory that is doable?

That way it is always true.

We can make https://book.cakephp.org/phinx always resolve to the latest english docs.

It doesn't work yet but I can get it working.

Cool, once that is done, we can ping rob to set the link.

For now I've started redirecting http://docs.phinx.org/ to https://book.cakephp.org/4/en/phinx.html. I'll shutdown readthedocs for SEO purposes at some point.

@robmorgan If you have a chance could you change the redirect to https://book.cakephp.org/phinx/ that URL will do one additional redirect and end up at the current release docs going forward.

@markstory I've updated the link now:

*://docs.phinx.org -> https://book.cakephp.org/phinx/

Just wanted to point out to @robmorgan that https://phinx.readthedocs.io/ is still stealing the scene on some searches

PS.: should the docs contain all options, or just leave that to the (confusing) help commands? If so, I can try writing a PR with the missing stuff, like --fake.

@igorsantos07 chiming in here 6 months later, I've now finally removed the Phinx docs from readthedocs.io so the search results will start returning a 404 and gradually be removed from the index.

Awesome, man! Great you got the time for that!
