> [Doc] Host different released versions of the documentation + version switcher
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-13260
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13260
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
> Priority: Major
>
> Related to ARROW-1299 for hosting the nightly docs, we could also keep the
> built docs for older versions instead of overwriting them at each release.
> Currently, the built docs live in the apache/arrow-site repo (asf-site
> branch) in the "/docs/" subdirectory.
> When releasing, we could add the newly built docs for that release in a
> subdirectory instead. Something like "/docs/5.0/" or "/docs/version/5.0".
> (And we could retroactively add some docs of previous releases, if we want)
> To make this useful for the user, we need a version switcher in the sphinx
> theme layout. There are other projects that use the same sphinx theme that
> have added this (see eg https://mne.tools/stable/index.html), and there is
> some work to upstream this to the base theme (but on the short term we could
> also copy such a custom implementation).
> For the "stable" docs (latest release), we could either 1) keep a duplicated
> version of the latest built docs at "/docs/", or 2) symlink "/docs/" to
> "/docs/5.0/" (and update this for each release; although I am not sure this
> is possible since it's the other is a child directory).
> We could also add a "/docs/stable/" and make this the default url.
