Making Changes to the Website

Setup Environment

Before making any changes, setup your environment with:

make setup

This will setup Pelican, so that you can build and deploy the website. You should only have to run the above command once.

Making changes

To make changes to the website, keep the following in mind:

• "Pages" go in content/pages. Pages are written in Markdown so use the .md extension
• Images go in content/images. An exmple of how to put an image in a page can be seen in content/pages/home.md.
• Files go in content/files. An example of how to put a file linke on a page can be seen in conent/pages/documents.md.

Building the website

To build the website:

make build

Deploying the website

Before deploying, ensure you have 2 files in the website root directory: the PASSWORD file and the TEAM file. The PASSWORD file should contain the sftp password that was emailed to you for your website. The TEAM file should contain the team name, something like mayXXXX or decXXXX.

The PASSWORD and TEAM files should contain NO SPACES and NO NEWLINES.

When ready to deploy:

make deploy
