* feat(ci): improve linting configuration for instruction files
- Add GitHub-flavored Markdown support with remark-gfm
- Create generic Vale config (.vale-instructions.ini) for instruction files
- Use pattern-based file inclusion instead of explicit file lists
- Mount repository to /workdir in remark-lint container to preserve node_modules
Changes:
- Add remark-gfm to .ci/remark-lint/package.json
- Create .remarkrc.yaml at repository root for instruction files
- Update content/.remarkrc.yaml to include remark-gfm
- Create .vale-instructions.ini for generic writing rules
- Update compose.yaml: mount repo to /workdir (preserves /app/node_modules)
- Update lefthook.yml: use glob patterns for uppercase .md files and .github/**/*.md
- Update DOCS-CONTRIBUTING.md: remove empty CONTRIBUTING.md directory reference
Benefits:
- Automatic inclusion of new instruction files without config updates
- Pattern matching for uppercase .md files (DOCS-*.md, CLAUDE.md, etc.)
- Coverage for .github/, .claude/, api-docs/ directories
- GFM features: tables, task lists, strikethrough, autolinks, footnotes
- Separate linting rules for instruction files vs product documentation
feat(lint): separate remark-lint auto-fix for instructions vs report-only for content
- Split lint-markdown into two hooks:
- lint-markdown-instructions: Auto-fixes README, DOCS-*.md, .github/**, .claude/**
- lint-markdown-content: Reports issues in content/**, api-docs/** without modifying
- Changed remark-lint volume mount from read_only: true to read_only: false
- Instruction files now behave like Prettier (auto-fix + stage)
- Content files report errors and block commits until manually fixed
* chore(instructions): Add content/shared details, husky/lefthook updates
Remove contributing.instructions.md build logic and simplify to only
build platform reference from products.yml. Update lefthook to only
trigger on products.yml changes instead of CONTRIBUTING.md.
Creates an interactive InfluxDB version detector component in TypeScript and a shortcode that generates a button to trigger
the version detector modal.
The shortcode takes a parameter that displays a predefined set of links for results.
- Support URL pattern matching and ping header analysis
- Add questionnaire-based product identification logic
- Adds the shortcode in a note in /influxdb3/core/visualize-data/grafana/
- Set up TypeScript configuration for the project
- Configure automatic TypeScript compilation in pre-commit hooks
- Add to Grafana documentation pages
- Remove last remnants of old Cypress link checker
- Add Cypress tests, but many are still broken

Fixes:
- Fix Hugo template to include product names in detector config
- Change elimination scores from -100 to -1000 for proper filtering
- Add scoring logic for generic "InfluxDB" product (OSS v2.x)
- Exclude generic "InfluxDB" from results (too vague)
- Add comprehensive test scenario checklist to Cypress tests
- Free license now correctly excludes Enterprise, Clustered, Dedicated
- Self-hosted now correctly excludes all Cloud products
- SQL language now correctly excludes v1 and v2 products
- Results now show only specific products (OSS 1.x, OSS 2.x, etc.)
Changes:
- When users answer "I'm not sure" to all questions, show a helpful
message directing them to the reference table instead of showing
a weak ranking with low confidence.
- Detect when all questionnaire answers are "unknown"
- Display custom message explaining lack of information
- Auto-expand reference table for easy product identification
- Hide ranked results when insufficient information provided
- Make product names clickable in the quick reference table to allow
users to quickly navigate to product documentation after identifying
their InfluxDB version.
- Add GitHub Actions for automated link validation on PRs
- Implement incremental validation with caching (30-day TTL, configurable)
- Add matrix generator for parallel validation strategy
- Create comprehensive TESTING.md documentation
- Add cache manager with configurable TTL via env var or CLI
- Implement smart link extraction and validation
- Add PR comment generator for broken link reports
- Update Cypress tests to use incremental validation
- Consolidate testing docs from CONTRIBUTING.md to TESTING.md
Key improvements:
- Cache-aware validation only checks changed content
- Parallel execution for large changesets
- Detailed PR comments with broken link reports
- Support for LINK_CACHE_TTL_DAYS env var
- Local testing with yarn test:links
- Reduced false positives through intelligent caching
- Add a script and pre-commit command to generate a CoPilot instructions file from CONTRIBUTING.md guidelines.
- Add custom instructions for CoPilot to help with influxdb3 placeholders
- **Environment variable formatting** - Updated environment variable configuration from array format to object format to comply with Lefthook schema validation requirements.
- **Unified link testing** - Consolidated multiple product-specific link testing commands into a single `e2e-links` command that processes all staged Markdown and HTML files across content directories.
- **Package script integration** - Modified commands to use centralized yarn scripts instead of direct execution, improving maintainability and consistency.
- **Source information extraction** - Enhanced to correctly extract and report source information from frontmatter.
- **URL and source mapping** - Improved handling of URL to source path mapping for better reporting.
- **Ignored anchor links configuration** - Added proper exclusion of behavior-triggering anchor links (like tab navigation) to prevent false positives.
- **Request options correction** - Fixed Cypress request options to ensure `failOnStatusCode` is properly set when `retryOnStatusCodeFailure` is enabled.
- **Improved error reporting** - Enhanced error reporting with more context about broken links.
- **New test scripts added** - Added centralized testing scripts for link checking and codeblock validation.
- **Product-specific test commands** - Added commands for each product version (InfluxDB v2, v3 Core, Enterprise, Cloud, etc.).
- **API docs testing** - Added specialized commands for testing API documentation links.
- **Comprehensive test runners** - Added commands to run all tests of a specific type (`test:links:all`, `test:codeblocks:all`).
- Fix Docker build command and update CONTRIBUTING.
chore(js): JavaScript QoL improvements:
- Refactor main.js with a componentRegistry object and clear initialization of components and globals
- Add a standard index.js with all necessary exports.

- Update package file to improve module discovery.
- Improve Hugo and ESLint config for module discovery and ES6 syntax
- Updates Linux install instructions to reflect updates in the Downloads page.

- Reorg of download verification: moves expandable details before instructions, to encourage using verification.
Includes verification in instructions.
- All tests pass if not explicitly skipped (for Docker and different architectures).
- Run `docker compose build` to update the Go version and other dependencies used by the
test image.
- Updates Telegraf install instructions, adds more info to promote verifying downloads.
- Adds setup for tests.
- Makes tests pass in install and configuration docs.
- Adds Vale.sh exception to allow duration values inside code blocks.
- Adds Dockerfiles for convenience to test install procedures in CentOS and Ubuntu.
- Clarifies and fixes config file handling and specifying input and output plugins.

- Cleanup Vale command args
- Replace lint-staged and husky with Lefthook.
- Pre-push hook:
- Scan for package vulnerabilities
- Tests
- Run tests on demand, in parallel, or debugged using docker compose up, run, exec, etc.
- Each test container (service) runs the prepare-content script before running tests.
- Return to using Python instead of Docker to provide environment variables so they don't get exposed in Docker inspect.
- Bind mount influxctl config.toml and .env.test files
- Bind mount scripts for faster builds while iterating on test scripts.
- Vale:
- Override Acronyms style def--ignore acronym if it's linked.
