Spectro Cloud logo with docs inline

This repository contains the Vale package for Spectro Cloud documentation. The package includes custom rules and configurations to ensure consistency and quality across the documentation. It is based on the Spectro Cloud style guide and best practices.

Usage

Use the following steps to use the Spectro Cloud Vale package in your documentation.

  1. Install Vale locally. You have multiple options to install Vale. For example, you can use Homebrew, Scoop, or Chocolatey. For more information, see the Vale installation guide.

    brew install vale
  2. In the repository where you want to use the Spectro Cloud Vale package, create a .vale.ini file and add the following configuration:

    StylesPath = vale/styles
    
    MinAlertLevel = suggestion
    
    Packages = https://github.com/spectrocloud/spectro-vale-pkg/releases/latest/download/spectrocloud.zip
    Vocab = spectrocloud-vocab
    
    [*.md]
    BasedOnStyles =  Vale, spectrocloud
  3. In the repository .gitignore file, add the following line to ignore the Vale package files from being committed to the repository:

    .vale-config/
    vale/styles/spectrocloud/
    vale/styles/config/vocabularies/spectrocloud-vocab
  4. Initialize the Vale package in the repository:

    vale sync
  5. In the .github/workflows directory, create a new file titled vale.yaml and add the following configuration:

    name: Vale
    
    on:
      pull_request:
        types: [opened, synchronize, reopened, ready_for_review]
    
    concurrency:
      group: vale-${{ github.ref }}
      cancel-in-progress: true
    
    jobs:
      run-ci:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        defaults:
          run:
            shell: bash
        if: ${{ !github.event.pull_request.draft && github.actor != 'dependabot[bot]' && github.actor != 'dependabot-preview[bot]' }}
        steps:
          - run: exit 0
    
      vale:
        needs: [run-ci]
        uses: spectrocloud/spectro-vale-pkg/.github/workflows/vale.yml@main

You are now ready to use the Spectro Cloud Vale package in your documentation. The Vale package will be used on every pull request in the repository and provide feedback on new or modified markdown files.

Tip

Pull Requests in draft mode will not trigger the writting checks. Make sure to mark the PR as ready for review to trigger the checks.

If a pull request does not meet the standards, Vale will provide suggestions on how to improve the documentation.

If you want to use Vale locally, issue the following command.

vale path/to/your/file

A detailed output will display the suggestions and errors in the documentation.
