The example installation instructions instruct the users to build on master

Open murgatroid99 opened this issue 10 years ago • 5 comments

This site is based on the content of the release branch, but the installation instructions for the examples say to clone master and then run the installation. After the clone step, there should be a git checkout origin/release-0_11 step.

+1 (although for Java it would be origin/v0.9.0)

This can be done during the clone with -b:

$ git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java.git -b v0.9.0

Actually, I think part of the issue here is that these instructions are in grpc/examples, but they also exist at (for example) http://www.grpc.io/docs/installation/node.html. The documentation there was not updated when we did the general site update, and I can't find any links on the site to that page, but I still got a bug report yesterday from someone who used it.

Yeah, it looks there are a few orphan (and very old) pages still being served on the site - they're not linked to anything but they're still there. I'll remove them.

@murgatroid99 @LisaFC has this been addressed?

This looks mostly fixed. It seems only the C++ quick start needs to be fixed (the tutorial is fine). I also noticed the csharp tutorial (quick start is fine) says -b v1.0.x. It's probably not using the expression we use elsewhere and needs to be fixed.
