[Bn] enable Netlify preview for the dev-1.24-bn.1

[seokho-son]

The Bengali team is developing their localization in the https://github.com/kubernetes/website/tree/dev-1.24-bn.1 branch.

To ensure that the Bengali localization PRs are checked with a build test, Netlify needs to be enabled.

Hi @kubernetes/sig-docs-leads
This is request acceptable? :)

Emeritus (!) tech lead here; I think the request is reasonable.

Is there something the team needs to do?

[seokho-son]

Is there something the team needs to do?

Yes, there is a need from the Bengali team. The primary purpose is to support the review of Bengali-related PRs targeting the dev branch and to ensure the approval of error-free PRs. :)

My question was that if there are some specific actions the sig-docs lead team need to take?

@tengqm Oh, I misunderstood your comment. :)

Some of the SIG-Docs leads have the authority to configure Netlify for a new branch. So, this request is for one of the leads to configure Netlify for the dev branch.
Currently, I am not sure who among the lead team has the authority, except for @reylejano.

There doesn't seem to me like a config option on Netlify for explicitly adding a branch into build. I did tried look around for such settings, but obviously I failed.

Did we do this for the Korean translation? I mean, for each localization branch folks create, we have to adjust the Netlify settings?

[sftim]

IIRC we can do this for any localization that wants it (usually, it's useful before the localization launches). I think we need to define a new site in Netlify for each localization we want to build.

[seokho-son]

IIRC, yes I think we need to define a new site in Netlify for each localization.

In case of Korean localization, we have

• Configuration for k8s-dev-ko

• k8s-dev-ko.netlify.app

• Deploys from GitHub.

• Owned by K8s Docs: Korean.

And recently, Arabic team got their page. :)

Yes, this is a reasonable request. One of the things, IMO, localisation leads should be able to do is to help get this sorted for different localisations. We can, of course, discuss this in the streamlining discussion item further.

Thoughts @reylejano @natalisucks

[tengqm]

Sorry I didn't get the point. Is the creation of a new netlify site mandatory? I don't think there is a k8s-dev-ja.netlify.app site, for example. But there are dev-<ver>-ja.<n> branches for the Japanese localization team to use.

Even for the Korean localization, take this PR as an example, the "netlify preview" link works and it leads us to https://deploy-preview-46259--kubernetes-io-main-staging.netlify.app/. Where I am supposed to switch to the Korean localization, which is https://deploy-preview-46259--kubernetes-io-main-staging.netlify.app/ko/. I don't understand why we need a new config for a localization. My understanding is that all localization are built together when a PR is committed, thanks to the multi-lingual support by Hugo. I could be wrong though.

[tengqm]

Update: from #46264 we can see that the netlify preview works for the bn localization team. Although I'm not aware of any build time configuration changes, this issue can be closed, I think?

[reylejano]

Yes, this is a reasonable request. One of the things, IMO, localisation leads should be able to do is to help get this sorted for different localisations. We can, of course, discuss this in the streamlining discussion item further.

Thoughts @reylejano @natalisucks

I believe localization subproject leads should have the ability to fulfill the request to create a Netlify site for preview for different localizations

I didn't see a Netlify site for Bengali so I created one named kubernetes-io-bn-staging which deploys the dev-1.24-bn.1 branch

This issue can be closed when the preview is confirmed to be working

[seokho-son]

• Confirm Netlify site for Bengali works (ex: https://deploy-preview-46313--kubernetes-io-bn-staging.netlify.app/ )

(I guess we've configured both main-staging and bn-staging sites for kubernetes:dev-1.24-bn.1. So, PRs to dev-1.24-bn.1 will show preview for both. ex: #46313)

/close

@seokho-son: Closing this issue.

In response to this:

• Confirm Netlify site for Bengali works (ex: https://deploy-preview-46313--kubernetes-io-bn-staging.netlify.app/ )

(I guess we've configured both main-staging and ben-staging sites for kubernetes:dev-1.24-bn.1. So, PRs to dev-1.24-bn.1 will show preview for both.)
