# Creating a reproduction
|
|
|
|
A reproduction is a simplified version of a bug that demonstrates the specific
|
|
scenario in which the bug occurred. It includes all necessary minimal settings
|
|
and instructions and should be as simple as possible while still demonstrating
|
|
the issue.
|
|
|
|
## Guide
|
|
|
|
### Environment <small>optional</small> { #environment }
|
|
|
|
We recommend using a [virtual environment], which is an isolated Python runtime.
|
|
If you are in a virtual environment, any packages that you install or upgrade
|
|
will be local to the environment. If you run into problems, you can
|
|
just delete and recreate the environment. It's trivial to set up:
|
|
|
|
- Create a new virtual environment with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python3 -m venv venv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Activate the environment with:
|
|
|
|
=== ":material-apple: macOS"
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
. venv/bin/activate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== ":fontawesome-brands-windows: Windows"
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
. venv/Scripts/activate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== ":material-linux: Linux"
|
|
|
|
``` sh
|
|
. venv/bin/activate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your terminal should now print `(venv)` before the prompt, which is how you
|
|
know that you are inside the virtual environment that you just created.
|
|
|
|
- Exit the environment with:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deactivate
|
|
```

### Minimal reproduction
|
|
|
|
Following the instructions below, you will set up a skeleton project to create
|
|
a reproduction. As mentioned above, we recommend using a [virtual environment],
|
|
so create a new folder in your working directory and a a new virtual environment
|
|
inside it. Next:
|
|
|
|
1. As mentioned in our [bug reporting guide], ensure that you're running the
|
|
latest version of Material for MkDocs, which might already include a fix for
|
|
the bug:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall mkdocs-material
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Bootstrap a new documentation project using the `mkdocs` executable,
|
|
which you use as a basis for the reproduction. It's essential to create a
|
|
new, empty project for this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkdocs new .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Start by adding the [minimal configuration] in `mkdocs.yml`:
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
theme:
|
|
name: material
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Now, only add the necessary settings to `mkdocs.yml` to keep the
|
|
reproduction minimal. If you are creating a reproduction for a rendering
|
|
bug, create only the necessary amount of Markdown documents. __Repeat this
|
|
step until the bug you want to report can be observed.__
|
|
|
|
4. As a last step, before packing everything into a .zip file, double-check
|
|
all settings and documents if they are essential to the reproduction, which
|
|
means that the bug does not occur when they are omitted. Remove all
|
|
non-essential lines and files.

|
|
|
|
### Creating a .zip file
|
|
|
|
Material for MkDocs 9.0.0 includes a new plugin solely intended to create
|
|
reproductions for bug reports. When the built-in info plugin is enabled, MkDocs
|
|
will add all relevant files to a .zip, print a summary to the terminal and
|
|
exit. Add the following lines to `mkdocs.yml`:
|
|
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
plugins:
|
|
- info
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, when running `mkdocs build`, a file called `example.zip` is automatically
|
|
created, containing the minimal reproduction you can directly attach to your bug
|
|
report.
|
|
|
|
```
