Before merging to master
it's possible you'd like to see your changes in a preview environment. It's simple to do this:
- Navigate to TeamCity.
- Find the build configuration for the environment you want to preview the changes in. They live under the
Octofront / CPT
project and the build configuration will be prefixed withDocs
. - Select
Run...
and choose your branch to build the docs and deploy it to the preview environment. - Make a note of the preview environment base url (this is available in the build-configuration description) and then preview your changes using that url.
Note: You may need to refresh the preview environment several times as various caching layers are invalidated. It may take a minute or two between when the pipeline completes and your changes become visible.
For more detailed information about the build process and preview environments, take a look at the internal documentation (private link).
