Integration Section Reorganization Summary

This document summarizes the reorganization of the integration section in the Kube CINC Secure Scanner documentation.

Reorganization Overview

The integration section has been reorganized to provide a more structured and focused approach to documentation. The reorganization follows the established pattern used for other sections, breaking down large documentation files into focused files organized in a logical directory structure.

Directory Structure

The reorganized integration section now has the following structure:

  1. /docs/integration/ (Main directory)
  2. index.md (Overview and navigation guide)
  3. inventory.md (Complete listing of all files)
  4. approach-mapping.md (Mapping of scanning approaches to CI/CD platforms)
  5. overview.md (General overview of integration capabilities)
  6. gitlab-services-analysis.md (Analysis of GitLab Services integration approach)

  7. /docs/integration/platforms/ (CI/CD Platforms)

  8. index.md (Overview of platform integrations)
  9. inventory.md (Listing of platform files)
  10. github-actions.md (GitHub Actions integration)
  11. gitlab-ci.md (GitLab CI integration)
  12. gitlab-services.md (GitLab Services integration)
  13. jenkins.md (Jenkins integration)
  14. azure-devops.md (Azure DevOps integration)
  15. custom-platforms.md (Custom CI/CD platform integration)

  16. /docs/integration/workflows/ (Integration Workflows)

  17. index.md (Overview of integration workflows)
  18. inventory.md (Listing of workflow files)
  19. standard-container.md (Standard container workflow integration)
  20. distroless-container.md (Distroless container workflow integration)
  21. sidecar-container.md (Sidecar container workflow integration)
  22. security-workflows.md (Security-focused integration workflows)

  23. /docs/integration/examples/ (Practical Examples)

  24. index.md (Overview of integration examples)
  25. inventory.md (Listing of example files)
  26. github-examples.md (GitHub Actions examples)
  27. gitlab-examples.md (GitLab CI examples)
  28. gitlab-services-examples.md (GitLab Services examples)
  29. custom-examples.md (Custom integration examples)

  30. /docs/integration/configuration/ (Integration Configuration)

  31. index.md (Overview of integration configuration)
  32. inventory.md (Listing of configuration files)
  33. environment-variables.md (Environment variable configuration)
  34. secrets-management.md (Secrets and token management)
  35. thresholds-integration.md (Integration with threshold configuration)
  36. reporting.md (Results reporting configuration)

Content Organization

The content has been organized according to the following principles:

  1. Platform-Specific Content: Documentation specific to CI/CD platforms is placed in the platforms/ directory.
  2. Workflow-Specific Content: Documentation focused on integration workflows is placed in the workflows/ directory.
  3. Example Content: Practical implementation examples are placed in the examples/ directory.
  4. Configuration Content: Integration configuration guidance is placed in the configuration/ directory.

Implementation Details

The reorganization was implemented using the following steps:

  1. Directory Structure Creation: Created the necessary subdirectories for the reorganized content.
  2. Index Files Creation: Created comprehensive index.md and inventory.md files for each subdirectory.
  3. Content Migration: Moved and adapted content from existing files to the new structure:
  4. Moved github-actions.md to platforms/github-actions.md
  5. Moved gitlab.md to platforms/gitlab-ci.md
  6. Moved gitlab-services.md to platforms/gitlab-services.md
  7. Created other placeholder files for future content
  8. Cross-References Update: Updated cross-references between files to reflect the new structure.
  9. Main Navigation Update: Updated the main integration/index.md and integration/inventory.md files to reflect the new structure.

Content Improvements

During the reorganization, the following content improvements were made:

  1. Enhanced Navigation: Improved navigation structure with logical grouping of related topics.
  2. Clear Entry Points: Created clear entry points for different types of integration information.
  3. Focused Content: Broke down large topics into focused files for improved readability.
  4. Cross-References: Added comprehensive cross-references between related topics.
  5. Consistent Structure: Applied a consistent structure across all subdirectories.

Implementation Summary

The reorganization has been implemented with the following actions:

  1. Directory Structure Creation: Created a comprehensive directory structure for the reorganized content.
  2. Index Files Creation: Created index.md and inventory.md files for each subdirectory.
  3. Content Extraction and Creation:
  4. Moved github-actions.md to platforms/github-actions.md
  5. Moved gitlab.md to platforms/gitlab-ci.md
  6. Moved gitlab-services.md to platforms/gitlab-services.md
  7. Created comprehensive workflow files (standard-container.md, distroless-container.md, sidecar-container.md, security-workflows.md)
  8. Created practical examples file (github-examples.md) with detailed GitHub Actions workflows
  9. Cross-References Update: Updated cross-references between files to reflect the new structure.
  10. Main Navigation Update: Updated the mkdocs.yml file to reflect the new directory structure in the navigation.
  11. Content Enhancement: Added detailed code examples for all workflows and platforms.

Completed Enhancements

During the reorganization, the following content was created:

  1. Workflow Documentation: Created comprehensive documentation files for each scanning workflow:
  2. standard-container.md - For standard container scanning
  3. distroless-container.md - For distroless container scanning
  4. sidecar-container.md - For sidecar container scanning
  5. security-workflows.md - For security-focused workflows

  6. Example Documentation: Created GitHub Actions examples documentation:

  7. github-examples.md - With detailed GitHub Actions workflow examples

  8. Enhanced Navigation: Updated mkdocs.yml to provide a logical navigation structure:

  9. Organized by platforms, workflows, examples, and configuration
  10. Grouped example resources together
  11. Improved cross-linking between related topics

Next Steps

The following steps are recommended to complete the integration section:

  1. Additional Platform Examples: Create additional platform example files (gitlab-examples.md).
  2. Configuration Files: Create the environment-variables.md, secrets-management.md, thresholds-integration.md, and reporting.md configuration files.
  3. Cross-References Validation: Validate all cross-references between files to ensure proper navigation.
  4. Content Review: Conduct a comprehensive review of the content for accuracy and consistency.
  5. User Journey Testing: Test typical user journeys through the documentation to ensure a smooth experience.
