We have a copy of help center with relative links disabled which is
reserved for root domains without an organisation on the root domain.
Ideally, we should have some logic to determine whether we are on such
a root domain or not. For practical short term purposes, since this
type of documentation is mainly useful for zulip.com, we add an
exception for zulip.com.
This commit removes the current help center markdown files and any logic
that was used to host those files at help/.
We also remove a bunch of tests, we should the equivalent of those tests
for the new help center. Issues to track: #35649, #35647. These issues
track adding back tests for redirects and broken links.
We had a symlink from templates/zerver/integrations/email.md pointing to
help/using-zulip-via-email.md. We can no longer have that symlink since
the latter has been converted to an MDX file. We have deleted the
symlink and put a markdown file in it's place. Both the files have
comments to edit the other in case of changes.
This commit also makes changes in astro config, astro component paths
and other places to move the starlight help center docs base path from
/starlight_help to /help.
The change to rename /starlight_help/ to /help/ in MDX files is done in
the next commit. If we squash these commits, this line should be
removed.
`./tools/build-help-center` no longer does the conversion step.
We also remove some dead code related to the old help center in
documentation.py.
We are starting the cutover process and starlight_help is the directory
we have agreed on to place our new help center project. We do not want
to use `starlight_help` as the URL for the project, but this commit
changes the url from `help-beta` to `starlight_help` temporarily since
we can only change URL once we get rid of the current help center
project. That will be done in a future commit.
Fixes#35116.
We copied whatever logic we needed from documentation_main.html. We have
not added the policy footer case from that html file into our footer
since that case does not apply to the new help center yet.
We process and pass the support email in the build help center step.
Fixes#31253.
We've added another env variable called `SHOW_BILLING_HELP_LINKS`.
This env variable is set to `settings.CORPORATE_ENABLED` if the
`build-help-center` tool is used.
We also add a script called `build-help-center` that is required
to build the starlight documentation. If the `help-beta/dist` dir
is not present, `run-dev` will show an error message but will not
fail.
