Metasploit docs site
This folder maintains the docs for https://docs.metasploit.com/ and https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki
Architecture
How it works:
build.rb
- The main entry point for generating the docs site from the old Github Wiki format files withinmetasploit-framework.wiki/
navigation.rb
- Stores the mapping ofmetasploit-framework.wiki
files to the website's navigational structuremetasploit-framework.wiki/
- The raw markdown documentation files. Modify these files when updating the site. These files originally came from https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wikimetasploit-framework.wiki.old/
- A separate clone of https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki
Behind the scenes these docs are built and deployed to https://docs.metasploit.com/
Adding pages
You can modify existing documentation files within metasploit-framework.wiki/
with an editor of your choice and send a pull request.
To add a new page, modify navigation.rb
. Full details are found beside the NAVIGATION_CONFIG
constant.
Adding links
For linking to other docs the Github markdown syntax [[link text|relative_path_to_docs]]
is used. Behind the scenes these
links will be verified at build time to ensure there's no 404 links.
Note: It is also possible to use the syntax [[link text|relative_path_to_docs#section]]
- but this navigation will happen client side, and
there is no validation that these sections exist at build time. It is possible for future edits to a markdown file to break these links.
Setup
Developer build
Builds the latest docs content from the existing Metasploit Wiki, and serves the files locally:
cd metasploit-framework/docs
bundle install
bundle exec ruby build.rb --serve
Now visit http://127.0.0.1:4000
Production build
Builds the latest docs content from the existing Metasploit Wiki, creates a production Jekyll build, and serves the files locally:
cd metasploit-framework/docs
bundle install
bundle exec ruby build.rb --production --serve
