 # Docsmg
 
+This CLI tool is used to generate a mapping file (`migratefile`) that is then used by the tool to migrate `.md`, `.mdx`, and images file from their current structure into a new structure.
+
+Use this migration tool to:
+
+-   generate the mapping file with the current structure
+-   read the completed (manual process to define target structure) and create the directories and move the files.
+-   modify the internal, cross-reference links to point to new location
+-   write to the `netlify.toml` file to add redirect entries for all migrated files.
+
 ## Steps to install
 
 1. Verify that you have the latest version of rust installed
     - Install [rust](rustup.rs) or update rust to the latest version with `rustup update`
     - If installing rust from scratch, you may need to run `. $HOME/.cargo/env`
 2. Install the cli tool with `cargo install --git https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik --bin docsmg`
+3. In the `/website` directory, create a file named `docsmg.env` with the entry of `MIGRATE_PATH=./docs`.
 
 ## Steps to use
 
-1. Generate a migratefile with `docsmg generate >> migratefile`
-2. Find the files you want to move in `migratefile` and insert the path you want to move them to after the arrow; ex `path/to/move/from/file.md -> path/to/move/to/file.md` Note: make sure to put spaces on either side of the arrow or that line won't be recognized
-3. Once you have entered all the paths you want to move, migrate the files with `docsmg migrate`
-4. To revert the migration, use `docsmg unmigrate`; Note: DO NOT edit the migrate file inbetween steps 3 and 4
-5. Repeat steps 2-4 until you are satified with the result
+### Create the mapping file (`migratefile`)
+
+1. Navigate to the `authentik/website` dir.
+2. Generate a migratefile with `docsmg generate | sort  >> migratefile`.
+   You can also just run `docsmg generate | sort` to see the output in the terminal, before writing it to a file.
+3. Edit the `migratefile` to add the target directory paths in the new structure for each entry.
+   Find the files you want to move in `migratefile` and insert the path you want to move them to after the arrow; ex `path/to/move/from/file.md -> path/to/move/to/file.md` Note: make sure to put spaces on either side of the arrow or that line won't be recognized.
+
+### Migrate the docs
+
+1. After you have entered all the paths you want to move, migrate the files with the command `docsmg migrate`.
+
+:::info
+After you have run `migrate`, you cannot run it again or you will get a `panic` error... because the files have already been moved.
+:::
+
+2. To revert the migration, use `docsmg unmigrate`. Note: DO NOT edit the `migratefile` file in befor running `unmigrate`.
+3. Continue modifying the `migratefile` file and then using the `docsmg migrate` command until you are satisfied with the result.
+
+### Update the `sidebar.js file`
+
+Because the structure is completely changed, you will need to modify/reconstruct the navigation bar.
+
+## Test the results
+
+To test the internal links, navigate up a level to `authentik` and then run `make website-watch`.
