This folder maintains the docs for https://docs.metasploit.com/ and https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki

How it works:

• build.rb - The main entry point for generating the docs site from the old Github Wiki format files within metasploit-framework.wiki/
• navigation.rb - Stores the mapping of metasploit-framework.wiki files to the website's navigational structure
• metasploit-framework.wiki/ - The raw markdown documentation files. Modify these files when updating the site. These files originally came from https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki
• metasploit-framework.wiki.old/ - A separate clone of https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/wiki

Behind the scenes these docs are built and deployed to https://docs.metasploit.com/

You can modify existing documentation files within metasploit-framework.wiki/ with an editor of your choice and send a pull request. To add a new page, modify navigation.rb. Full details are found beside the NAVIGATION_CONFIG constant.

For linking to other docs the Github markdown syntax [[link text|relative_path_to_docs]] is used. Behind the scenes these links will be verified at build time to ensure there's no 404 links.

Note: It is also possible to use the syntax [[link text|relative_path_to_docs#section]] - but this navigation will happen client side, and there is no validation that these sections exist at build time. It is possible for future edits to a markdown file to break these links.
