Summary0006237: PDF Onboarding documentation link broken
DescriptionThe docs page[1] links under Internals -> Onboarding to a PDF version of the onboarding docs[2], which is not available (404 HTTP error).

I can recommend setting up a broken link checker for the Taler website to prevent this issue in the future.

I no longer work for Taler, I'm the wrong person to assign anything to. On the same thought, for gnunet.org, we could do this in www_shared, but "broken link checker" exists out there as many applications, so no need to write one.

That must have been an auto assignment, apologies. I assigned to Christian now for triage.

I have fixed the auto-assignment now.
Stefan: please fix the link. Then re-assign the bug to bucke, asking him to interpret the report as: 'setup link checker CI job'.

Can anybody tell me the link to the requested PDF file? I have been searching for it quite a time, finally given up. Or should we renounce on the PDF? No matter to get rid of the link in case we don't need such a file, but a nicely layoutet document would be nice for readers who want to join our team.

I just noticed that _this_ one wasn't properly generated. I've tried to fix the generation logic, *IF* my fix worked, the file _should_ appear as
https://docs.taler.net/pdf/developers-manual.pdf (eventually).

I'm sorry to say that the fix did not work out. For better consistency, it is recommended to generate the PDF file as 'taler-developers-manual.pdf' in order to comply with the names of other files from our documentation website. So far, every PDF had a "taler-" string in its name, as far as I have seen. That said, the link would be going like https://docs.taler.net/pdf/taler-developers-manual.pdf

I will monitor this bug and update the link then.
Kind regards and thanks for your work in advance!

Stefan, what exactly is the bug? Anyway I don't have access to the website, and I am just learning about this "Onboarding PDF" now from reading this. Please be specific. What is wrong and exactly what do you want changed?

Hi Buck,
there is no issue anymore with this "bug" as the link to the said document works fine. I have tested it now once again.

Referring to Christian's advice on May 15th, I should ask you to "interpret the report as: 'setup link checker CI job'". Hopefully you know better than me what to do with this task. It's about setting up a program for automatically checking broken links on the Taler website, I suppose.

Kind regards!
Stefan

Changing to "resolved" although I did nothing. Reason:

From Stefan:

Misc:

No I have no idea what this means, either the comment from May 15th or the phrase "interpret the report as: 'setup link checker CI job'" but I assume that if there is a task that relates to these ideas I will see it eventually.

Kind regards!
Stefan
