* docs: update replace-brick notes We no longer need to do manual steps before replacing a brick. It is enough to use `replace-brick` without killing brick processes or setting xattrs manually (this has been true for *years*). * docs: minor improvements to replace-brick text Use code blocks for brick name and simplify formatting in places to be consistent with other examples. Also, it seems that MkDocs renders this Markdown slightly differently than GitHub. * docs: reverse order of pure vs distributed replicate The "pure" replicate example comes first in the docs, so it seems natural to list it first here. * Update docs/Administrator-Guide/Managing-Volumes.md Co-authored-by: Karthik Subrahmanya <ksubrahm@redhat.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Karthik Subrahmanya <ksubrahm@redhat.com>

Building the docs
If you are on EPEL 7 or Fedora, the first thing you will need is to install mkdocs, with the following command :
# sudo yum install mkdocs
For Fedora 30+ (run the following in root)
# dnf install python-pip
# pip install -r requirements.txt
Then you need to run mkdocs from the root of that repository:
$ mkdocs build
If you see an error about docs_dir when using recent versions of mkdocs , try running additional steps mentioned below:
$ cp ./mkdocs.yml ../
$ cd ..
Edit below entry in the copied mkdocs.yml file
docs_dir: ./glusterdocs/
Then you need to run mkdocs
$ mkdocs build
The result will be in the site/ subdirectory, in HTML.
Building the docs in Docker
Included is a Makefile and a Dockerfile, which enables you to easily build the docs inside Docker without installing any dependencies on your system.
Simply run the following command to compile the docs:
make
This Makefile recipe builds a Docker image containing the dependencies required
and runs mkdocs inside the built image, taking care to run the container as
the current uid and gid so that your user has ownership of the results in
the ./site directory.
