This project contains the contents of openxcplatform.com as a jekyll-powered site.
Install the Ruby dependencies:
$ bundle install
Then run the local development server:
$ jekyll serve
and point your browser to http://localhost:4000.
Jekyll uses the templates in the repository to generate a static html version of
the site. The static version is always dumped in the _site subdirectory in the
repository - this is not committed, since it's automatically generated. The
-w flag turns on auto-recompilation, so anytime you change a file it will
regenerate whatever files have changed, so you just need to refresh the browser
to see your latest updates.
This section describes how to create your own fork of the openxcplatform.com in order to work on and published with your personal GitHub account.
-
Go to https://github.com/openxc/openxcplatform.com and click on "fork" in the upper right section to create a fork in your github space.
-
In the new fork in your own github space, click Settings and rename the repo to "{githubUsername}.github.io"
-
Create new branch called master from gh-pages using the gui.
-
Your site is published at https://{githubUsername}.github.io/
-
All work should be done on the "master" branch for changes to show up.
-
When you are ready to push code back to the OpenXC account use the gui to create a new pull request pulling your local master to gh-pages.
The site is hosted on GitHub pages, so deploying is as simple as commiting your changes and pushing to GitHub. It gets regenerated within a minute or two, and it's live. This of course means don't push anything in the gh-pages branch that isn't 100% done!
_layouts/default.html contains the main layout for the site. There's only 1
layout for now, although there could others in the future.
There's lots you can do with the templates (they're using the Liquid template engine) - see the Jekyll docs: https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki.
