PDF is not auto-generated about wiki HOT 7 CLOSED

@mi-hol I've updated description, hopefully is more clear now

from wiki.

Thanks, it's done now

from wiki.

@karniv00l is there any thing I could help with?
I did a proof-of-concept for RE see rusefi/rusefi_documentation#1

from wiki.

• as a part of the build action

never edited GH workflows before but it seems that I need to add the following "-run" actions to "steps:" section in build.js.yml

• install any new dependencies
• at end of current yaml "run: npm run pdf"
• if no error happened, copy pdf output file to a permanent location tbd

Would that be all or did I miss something?

from wiki.

It's a little bit more complicated since I believe we need to run npm run serve in a service

from wiki.

https://medium.com/geekculture/serverless-e-book-web-book-using-docusaurus-v2-github-pages-actions-and-pdf-tools-4fef54847b85 describes a more simple solution (having some caveats) copied below.

I've yet to test it and would create a PR if it works.
Would that be good enough as a first solution?

Great to see another critical issue for V1 release to be resolved.

BTW: The caveat I saw is the Prince version specific download file name.
Are you getting updates or have awareness of new releases?
