[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-14163) Refactor existing hadoop site to use more usable static website generator

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14163?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16242306#comment-16242306 ] 

Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-14163:
-------------------------------------------


Some initial questions/comments:

a) Why is this being built with Hugo instead of mvn site (esp when used with something like reflow)?  What does hugo provide that mvn site+reflow doesn't?

b) How does this integrate with the docs from a release? All of the links point to the existing website.

c) What can be done about the absolute pathing in links?  This makes it extremely difficult to test since it assumes that / is the root of the tree. (Yes, I know about hugo server.)

> From the dev mailing list:
> "Publishing can be attacked via a mix of scripting and revamping the darned website. Forrest is pretty bad compared to the newer static site generators out there (e.g. need to write XML instead of markdown, it's hard to review a staging site because of all the absolute links, hard to customize, did I mention XML?), and the look and feel of the site is from the 00s. We don't actually have that much site content, so it should be possible to migrate to a new system."
> This issue is find a solution to migrate the old site to a new modern static site generator using a more contemprary theme.
> Goals: 
>  * existing links should work (or at least redirected)
>  * It should be easy to add more content required by a release automatically (most probably with creating separated markdown files)
