CI Maintainability Test Coverage npm (scoped)

Fully automated tech-radar generator. Based on zalando/tech-radar. Boosted with 11ty

Purpose

Zalando's answer:

The Tech Radar is a tool to inspire and support engineering teams at Zalando to pick the best technologies for new projects; it provides a platform to share knowledge and experience in technologies, to reflect on technology decisions and continuously evolve our technology landscape. Based on the pioneering work of ThoughtWorks, our Tech Radar sets out the changes in technologies that are interesting in software development — changes that we think our engineering teams should pay attention to and consider using in their projects.

We've just slightly modified the original implementation for our bloody enterprise requirements.

CI/CD

Follow gh-action usage example:

release_radar action 
  release_radar:
    name: Publish radar to gh-pages
    # https://github.community/t/trigger-job-on-tag-push-only/18076
    if: github.event_name == 'push' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/master'
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs: test
    steps:
      - name: Checkuout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Setup NodeJS
        uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: 16

      - name: Install deps
        run: yarn

      - name: Generate
        run: yarn generate

      - name: Publish gh-pages
        uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          publish_dir: ./dist
          commit_message: "docs: update tech-radar static"
          allow_empty_commit: true
          enable_jekyll: false
generator script 
"scripts": {
  "generate": "node ./src/main/js/cli.mjs --input \"data/**/*.{csv,json,yml}\"  --output dist --base-prefix tech-radar --autoscope true --nav-page true && touch dist/.nojekyll"
},

Customization

Group labels

Every radar document provides its own definition of what each quadrant does represent. Change if necessary.

quadrant,   title
q1,         Languages and frameworks
q2,         Platforms
q3,         Tools
q4,         Techniques

Ring colors

The easiest way to tweak up the look of your radar is by adding an alternative color scheme. renderSettings option is exactly for that:

{
  "svg_id": "radar",
  "width": 1450,
  "height": 1100,
  "colors": {
    "background": "#fff",
    "grid": "#bbb",
    "inactive": "#ddd"
  },
  "rings": [
    { "name": "ADOPT", "color": "#93c47d", "id": "adopt" },
    { "name": "TRIAL", "color": "#93d2c2", "id": "trial" },
    { "name": "ASSESS", "color": "#fbdb84", "id": "assess" },
    { "name": "HOLD", "color": "#efafa9", "id": "hold" }
  ],
  "print_layout": true
}

Templates

For advanced view modification, you can use your own templates. Pass template option to navigate the dir, where your own custom .njk files are placed. Expected structure:

assets
  favicon.ico
  radar.css
  radar.js
_data/
  settings.json
_includes
  footer.njk
_layouts
  entries.njk
  page.njk
  radar.njk
  redirect.njk
  root.njk
