# Mattermost API Documentation
|
|
|
|
This repository holds the API reference documentation for Mattermost available at [https://developers.mattermost.com/api-reference](https://developers.mattermost.com/api-reference).
|
|
|
|
The Mattermost API reference uses the [OpenAPI standard](https://openapis.org/) and the [ReDoc document generator](https://github.com/Rebilly/ReDoc).
|
|
|
|
All documentation is available under the terms of a [Creative Commons License](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/).

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
We're accepting pull requests! See something that could be documented better or is missing documentation? Make a PR and we'll gladly accept it.
|
|
|
|
All the documentation is written in YAML and found in the [v4/source](v4/source) directories. APIv4 documentation is in the [v4 directory](v4).
|
|
APIs for [Playbooks](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-playbooks) are retrieved from GitHub at build time and integrated into the final YAML file.
|
|
|
|
* When adding a new route, please add it to the correct file. For example, a channel route will go in [channels.yaml](v4/source/channels.yaml).
|
|
* To add a new tag, please do so in [introduction.yaml](v4/source/introduction.yaml)
|
|
* Definitions should be added to [definitions.yaml](v4/source/definitions.yaml)
|
|
|
|
There is no strict style guide but please try to follow the example of the existing documentation.
|
|
|
|
To build the full YAML, run `make build` and it will be output to `v4/html/static/mattermost-openapi-v4.yaml`. This will also check syntax using [swagger-cli](https://github.com/APIDevTools/swagger-cli).
|
|
|
|
To test locally, run `make build`, `make run` and navigate to `http://127.0.0.1:8080`. For any updates to the source files, re-run the same commands.

## Deployment
|
|
|
|
Deployment is handled automatically by our Github Actions. When a pull request is merged, it will automatically be deployed to [https://developers.mattermost.com/api-reference](https://developers.mattermost.com/api-reference).
