Website Content Creation

The class website is generated with the pelican python package. All class content is located below the content directory in this repository. Content is modified by:

1. Markdown files
2. Jupyter notebooks (HW and PP)

The directory structure is a follows:

content
├── homeworks
├── labs
├── lectures
├── pages
└── project

The content of the home page is inside content/index.md. The sub-directory pages contains the website sub-sections that you can click on in the top right navigation panel on the site.

Changing or adding content is not automatically translated to HTML to serve our website. Here are the steps you need to take to accomplish this:

0. You only need to do this once. If you have iacs-cli installed on your system from previous TF at IACS, uninstall it with:

   python3 -m pip uninstall iacs-cli

   Then reinstall it with the following:

   python3 -m pip install iacs-cli pelican-jupyter

   You should now have the iacs tool available on your command line. If not, make sure your PATH is set to point to the directory where Python installed the iacs-cli package.
1. Modify content inside the content directory
2. Verify your changes by launching a local web server. In the root directory of the git repository, run this command:

   make preview

   The command will launch a python web server which you can browse at http://0.0.0.0:8000. Check that all is fine on the local webpage and perform more changes if necessary. After additional changes are made you have to rebuild the HTML sources. You can do this with

   make docs

   Note: You may see some WARNING when you build the HTML. This is ok due to some files that can not be found. If you see ERROR in red, then something is wrong.
3. Once everything is fine, commit your changes (everything below content) and quickly describe what you did in the subject (and maybe commit message if it was complicated).
4. Create a separate commit of the new HTML sources by running:

   make webcommit

   This creates a new commit with the changes inside the docs directory only.
5. Push your modifications:

   git push
