Folio Documentation

Ingolf; Testers

Let's finally sign off the content of the single server installation for the folio docs project .

Several of us have tested this content by now; let's collect our thoughts and prepare a final version today.

Please fork https://github.com/folio-org/docs if you haven't done so, yet.

Edit

in your local branch.

Create a pull request.

Open question: Should two single server documents with almost the same content been maintained? See DOCS-31 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Discussion

Let's dont keep documentation in 2 different places
DevOps team could document in folio-org/docs (instead of in folio-org/folio-install)
folio-org/install and folio-org/docs are subject to diverge in the future
responsibilty of DevOps team ?
documentation should be made a priority !
long term perspective ! Will this be maintained by the documentation wg ? For how long ? By dev ops team ?
SysOps should be a piece of the puzzle, but not the solely responsible group
SysOps can make pull requests
Marcia's site is linked better; should be the main goto in the project
single server site needs to be linked in
involve teach leads; not force it on a specific group

Single server without containers

How are we configuring SSO ?

Ingolf

Question from Erin Nettifee from the documentation working group.

Discussion

SSO is not in a great state

mod-login-saml/README.md at master · folio-org/mod-login-saml (github.com) - this is really flashed out ; it doesn't go far enough ; you need to talk to your identity people. It is not a 100% complete solution. Some new features need to be added.

Plugins in the Settings - Tenant section :

Jason: There is only one plugin for each type of folio component. Neither we can see when the Preferred Plugins selection might be used.

The answers to the SSO config question are all in the Slack Thread: https://folio-project.slack.com/archives/C210RP0T1/p1618430306134500 ; and, yes, you have to talk to your IT staff.

Topics for next meeting (April 30th)

Jason will match his documentation of the Rancher installation https://github.com/folio-org/folio-install/tree/master/alternative-install/kubernetes-rancher/TAMU with the one on the folio-org/docs repo and make a commit for "OK" in the docs repo.
