refactor: stand up vantage-docs as its own repository

docsite/ becomes the repository root; the whole repository is the site.
The image is vantage/vantage-docs:latest, was mrhid6/vantage/docsite.

The workflow passes no build args, as the monorepo's did not: DOCS_URL,
DOCS_BASE_URL, APP_URL and HQ_URL have correct defaults in the
Dockerfile, and passing an unset repo variable would blank one rather
than leave it alone.

Raw Blame History

Vantage documentation (`vantage-docs`)

The user-facing documentation, served at vantage.hostxtra.co.uk/docs. Docusaurus 3 in docs-only mode (routeBasePath: "/", no blog), one version tracking main, search indexed at build time by @easyops-cn/docusaurus-search-local so nothing external is keyed or called.

Extracted from the vantage monorepo with its history, where it was docsite/. The whole repository is the site — there is no subdirectory.

It documents the product, not the codebase: each repository's own CLAUDE.md remains the contributor's map, and the two are allowed to differ in altitude but not in fact. Five sections — Getting started, Vantage, Vantage HQ, Reference, Operations — with sidebars.ts authored by hand so ordering is a decision rather than a filename accident.

A path, not a subdomain

*.vantage.hostxtra.co.uk is the per-tenant instance namespace, and the control plane's APP_ROOT_LABEL resolves an instance from the label before vantage — so a docs. label would be read as a tenant slug. Hence /docs on the marketing host instead.

Three things must agree, and when they do not the HTML loads while every asset 404s:

DOCS_BASE_URL (default /docs/ in the Dockerfile)
the proxy location that routes here — which must also sort above the catch-all forwarding to site:3003, or Next answers the 404 first
the directory the runtime stage serves from, /usr/share/nginx/html/docs

The proxy forwards the full path; it does not strip /docs. That is the whole reason the third item exists.

Unlike the three Next apps this builds to static files, so its runtime stage is nginx:alpine-slim rather than Node, and it listens on 80, not 3000.

Design tokens

src/css/custom.css holds vantage-site's web/app/globals.css token blocks copied verbatim — same names, same values. This is the one place the tokens are not consumed through Tailwind: everything below the token block maps Docusaurus's --ifm-* variables onto them. Docusaurus already stamps data-theme on <html>, which is the selector the dark block keys on, so the built-in toggle needed no wiring.

The rule holds all the same: no rule in that file outside the token blocks may carry a hex. The one concession is static/img/favicon.svg, which must, for the same reason the email layout must — a browser tab cannot read a token.

Nothing enforces the match across the four front ends, and they are now in four repositories. A token change here follows one in vantage-site; there is no way to make them one commit.

Deployment

A fragment, composed on top of the control plane's own file:

docker compose \
  -f vantage/deploy/docker/docker-compose.yml \
  -f vantage-site/deploy/docker-compose.yml \
  -f vantage-docs/deploy/docker-compose.yml \
  -f vantage-admin/deploy/docker-compose.yml \
  up -d

Not part of a self-hosted install.

CI/CD

.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml, on every push to main plus workflow_dispatch. One image, vantage/vantage-docs:latest, from the repository root — the whole repository is the site, so there is nothing to detect a change in and it rebuilds on every push.

No build args are passed, deliberately. DOCS_URL, DOCS_BASE_URL, APP_URL and HQ_URL all have correct defaults in the Dockerfile, and passing an unset repo variable would blank one rather than leave it alone — which for DOCS_BASE_URL means every asset path in the build. Change them in the Dockerfile. The monorepo's workflow passed none either; this preserves that.

Name	Type	Value
`RELEASE_TOKEN`	Secret	Gitea API token, `write:package`. No module fetch here, so it needs no org read access
`REGISTRY_USER`	Secret	Gitea username. Must own `RELEASE_TOKEN`
`DOCKER_HOST`	Variable	registry host used for image tags

Despite the name the workflow does not deploy; it only builds and pushes.
