Guide for Schema markups

Schema markups helps improving the SEO of the page. There are lots of schema markup types. Currently, we are using the FAQ Page and How-to types.

  1. Generation You can generate schema markups at e.g.: https://technicalseo.com/tools/schema-markup-generator
    After generating the schema markup, you should copy and paste the json content from the generated script to a .json file. Only the .json part should be copied, the script tag will be inserted when we use it later.
    The .json file's location should be under the website/src/schema-markup/... folder. Please use the same directory structure just like at the docs part.

  2. Usage In the files you can inject the schema markup with a similar code:

export const NetSchema = require('@site/src/schema-markup/sdk-reference/net.json');
<script
  type="application/ld+json"
  dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: JSON.stringify(NetSchema) }}
></script>;

Run locally using Docker

  1. Have Docker CLI installed

  2. Crate container

    docker build -t docs:latest .
  3. Run container (you might need to replace environment variables)

    docker run -i --publish 8000:80 --name docs docs:latest
  4. Open http://localhost:8000

Troubleshooting

Make sure you have the proper Node.js version installed

You might run into errors caused by the wrong version of Node.js. To make sure you are using the recommended Node.js version follow these steps.

  1. Have nvm (Node Version Manager - https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm ) installed:
  2. Run nvm install. This will install the compatible version of Node.js.
  3. Run nvm use. This will use the compatible version of Node.js.
  4. Your local Node.js version (node -v) should be the same as in the .nvmrc file.
