Admins: Update the website

Scott Olesen edited this page Dec 7, 2015 · 1 revision

To update the website, first do a local check to make sure your update worked:

  1. Clone this repo.
  2. Make changes locally, specifically:
  • Update xml/members.xml in two places. First, put the member's main panel content (in alphabetical order) in the section titled Main panel content. Then put their name in the sidebar area titled Side panel content.
  • Put images under img/.
  1. Run make. This should generate all the html pages by calling the script in bin/.
  2. Open the website to make sure the changes were correct.

If the local check worked, push the changes to the repo:

  1. Push your commits to github.
  2. I set up a thingy at Codeship, so it should automatically build the new page. If that doesn't work, you can either
  • log into Athena, pull the new code, and do make, or
  • you can just hit almlab.mit.edu/make.php.
