Rohini Palaniswamy commented on OOZIE-2734:
-------------------------------------------
It would also be good to integrate the following cwiki docs as part of the
regular documentation during this exercise. They have very good information.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOZIE/Java+Cookbook
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOZIE/Map+Reduce+Cookbook

> Switch docs from twiki to markdown
> ----------------------------------

> Key: OOZIE-2734
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-2734
> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: docs
> Affects Versions: trunk
> Reporter: Robert Kanter
>
> This won't be a fun JIRA, but it would be great if we could switch to
> something easier to work with and better supported like markdown, and get rid
> of the super old twiki we're using for docs.
> I found two tools that I haven't tried out that claim to be able to convert
> this for us:
> # http://pandoc.org/
> # https://github.com/jcodagnone/twiki2markdown
> The former supports a lot of different formats, and according to [this blog
> post|http://goer.org/Journal/2013/02/converting_twiki_foswiki_to_markdown_restructuredtext.html]
> it's better to convert from the rendered html instead of the twiki. But who
> knows which is better, or if the second tool is better than either.
> I think once we switch to a better format, it will be easier to keep the docs
> in better shape, as they could really use some reorganizing. Though we can
> keep that for a separate task.
