Kefu Chai d1e8d89ae2 doc: topology-over-raft: add transition_state to node state diagram
in order to help the developers to understand the transitions
of `node_state` and the `transition_state` on each of the `node_state`,
in this change, the nested state machine diagram is added to the
node state diagram.

please note, instead of trying to merge similar states like
bootstrapping and replacing into a single state, we keep them as
separate ones, and replicate the nested state machine diagram in them
as well, to be more clear.

Key Guidelines for Contributors

Creating Knowledge Base Articles

The kb/ directory holds source files for knowledge base articles in the Knowledge Base section of the ScyllaDB documentation.

The kb/kb_common subdirectory contains a template for knowledge base articles to help you create new articles.

To create a new knowledge base article (KB):

  1. Copy the kb-article-template.rst file from /kb/kb_common to /kb and rename it with a unique name.
  2. Open the new file and fill in the required information.
  3. Remove what is not needed.
  4. Run make preview to build the docs and preview them locally.
  5. Send a PR with "KB" in its title.

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3. Check your version with $ python --version.
  • poetry 1.12 or later
  • make

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine
