169222 - make web site generator script generate pages as they get checked in

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

The web site generator script generates the entire web site when it runs, which
currently takes 35-40 minutes.  This means up to a 1-2 hour delay between the
time a document is checked in and the time it hits the web site.  The script
should process individual files when they are checked in so the delay is shorter
and so external clients like Doctor can use the script to validate content
before it gets checked in.

It's all running on a new faster server now, and the staging script now runs
every 15 minutes and takes approximately 1 minute to complete.
