This is the source code for the website of the Journal of Southern Religion, a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal devoted to the study of religion in the American South.
This site is generated by Jekyll and various other libraries.
The master
branch contains the development version. See tags and other
branches as necessary.
You will need the version of Ruby specified in the .ruby-version
file.
You will then have to install the necessary gems by running
bundle install
. You can then use rake preview
or rake pow
(if you
have Pow installed) to generate and preview the site.
Here is a more verbose guide to installing the necessary Ruby and gems if you're on a Mac. If you're on Linux, you don't need help; if you're on Windows, you're on your own.
First install Homebrew. (Install some software to install other software to install other software to install other software.)
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Now install rbenv and ruby-build. (Install some software to install other software to install other software.)
brew update
brew install rbenv ruby-build
echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bash_profile
Open a new terminal tab. Navigate to the folder with the JSR.
Install Ruby 2.1.4. (Install some software to install other software.)
rbenv install 2.1.4
rbenv rehash
Make sure you have the right Ruby.
ruby --version
which ruby
Now install the software we actually want.
gem install bundler
rbenv rehash
bundle install
rbenv rehash
Now run the site.
bundle exec rake preview
