Building Keycloak Documentation

Ensure that you have Maven installed.

First, clone the Keycloak repository:

git clone https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak.git
cd keycloak/docs/documentation

If you are using Windows, you need to run the following command with administrator privilege because this project uses symbolic links:

git clone -c core.symlinks=true https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak.git

To build Keycloak Documentation run:

./mvnw clean install -am -pl docs/documentation/dist -Pdocumentation

Or to build a specific guide run:

./mvnw clean install -pl docs/documentation/GUIDE_DIR -Pdocumentation

By default, an archive version of the documentation is built. To build the latest build run:

./mvnw clean install ... -Platest,documentation

You can then view the documentation by opening docs/documentation/GUIDE_DIR/target/generated-docs/index.html.

To build the REST API documentation and the Javadoc:

  • Export the JAVA_HOME variable, for example:
    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-25-openjdk
    
    (without this, you may get the following error: Unable to find javadoc command: The environment variable JAVA_HOME is not correctly set.)
  • Run:
    ./mvnw clean package -am -pl services -Pjboss-release -DskipTests
    

You can view the generated docs by opening the following files:

  • REST API: services/target/apidocs-rest/output/index.html
  • Javadoc: services/target/apidocs/index.html
