 # @backstage/techdocs-common
 
-**WARNING**: This package is moving to `@backstage/plugin-techdocs-node`.
-Please update any dependencies you may have, as this package will no longer be
-published or updated in the near future.
-
-Common node.js functionalities for TechDocs, to be shared between techdocs-backend plugin and techdocs-cli
-
-This package is used by `techdocs-backend` to serve docs from different types of publishers (Google GCS, Local, etc.).
-It is also used to build docs and publish them to storage, by both `techdocs-backend` and `techdocs-cli`.
-
-## Usage
-
-Create a preparer instance from the [preparers available](/plugins/techdocs-node/src/stages/prepare) at which takes an Entity instance.
-Run the [docs generator](/plugins/techdocs-node/src/stages/generate) on the prepared directory.
-Publish the generated directory files to a [storage](/plugins/techdocs-node/src/stages/publish) of your choice.
-
-Example:
-
-```js
-async () => {
-  const preparedDir = await preparer.prepare(entity);
-
-  const parsedLocationAnnotation = getLocationForEntity(entity);
-  const { resultDir } = await generator.run({
-    directory: preparedDir,
-    dockerClient: dockerClient,
-    parsedLocationAnnotation,
-  });
-
-  await publisher.publish({
-    entity: entity,
-    directory: resultDir,
-  });
-};
-```
-
-## Features
-
-Currently the build process is split up in these three stages.
-
-- Preparers
-- Generators
-- Publishers
-
-Preparers read your entity data and creates a working directory with your documentation source code. For example if you have set your `backstage.io/techdocs-ref` to `url:https://github.com/backstage/backstage.git` it will clone that repository to a temp folder and pass that on to the generator.
-
-Generators takes the prepared source and runs the `techdocs-container` on it. It then passes on the output folder of that build to the publisher.
-
-Publishers gets a folder path from the generator and publish it to your storage solution. Read documentation to know more about configuring storage solutions.
-http://backstage.io/docs/features/techdocs/configuration
-
-Any of these can be extended. We want to extend our support to most of the storage providers (Publishers) and source code host providers (Preparers).
