FLOSS inventory

The FLOSS inventory lists all the Free Libre Open Source Software relevant to Europeana and the cultural heritage world.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system. To get this website generated on a local machine, you need to install Jekyl, a static site generator.

Prerequisites

• Ruby version 2.2.5 or above, including all development headers (ruby installation can be checked by running ruby -v)
• RubyGems (which you can check by running gem -v)
• GCC and Make (in case your system doesn't have them installed, which you can check by running gcc -v,g++ -v and make -v in your system's command line interface)

Installing

# Install Jekyll and Bundler gems through RubyGems
gem install jekyll bundler

# Change into your new directory
cd floss

# Build the site on the preview server
bundle exec jekyll serve

# Now browse to http://127.0.0.1:4000/floss

Deployment

Just about any traditional web hosting provider will let you upload files to their servers over FTP. To upload a Jekyll site to a web host using FTP, simply run the jekyll build command and copy the contents of the generated _site folder to the root folder of your hosting account. This is most likely to be the httpdocs or public_html folder on most hosting providers.
