Usage for 2020

Creating new folder for a new year

1. Copied the 2019_content to 2020_content.
2. Alter in Makefile to put to year 2020. Change link in ./index.html. Switch years in pelicanconf.py
3. Edit homepage in 2020_content/pages/00_index.md. Remove pages you don't need right now. You can always recopy them from 2019_content
4. Website should initially have dates, schedule, speakers, and organizers. Add call for papers when ready.

Editing an existing page

1. Make edits on page in 2020_content/pages/
2. make html in root. make serve to check it looks fine. Then push to public.

Adding a page from the 2018 website

1. Copy over the page from 2018_content/pages/. to 2019_content/pages/.
2. If the page looks "complicated", check and see if there is a corresponding make organizers or something else in the Makefile. In that case, you're meant to update the corresponding csv first and then run make organizers or make accepted_papers. This will generate the static page from the input files.
3. make html in root. make serve to check it looks fine. Then push to public.

FAQs

• Want to change the order of pages in toolbar? Alphabetical by page filename, but make title in page the actual thing you want.
• Images for organizers or speakers looking strange? Make sure all of the captions are the same length (same number of lines), otherwise it will throw off the spacing.

Usage for 2018

$ make organizers   # Build the organizers page from .csv file of raw data
$ make html         # Build static site on local machine under 2018/ output folder
$ make serve        # Serve website locally. Point browser to: localhost:8000

To push any local changes to the real site, just push to origin (assuming origin = github.com/ml4health/ml4health.github.io)

$ git push origin master

Remember, only content that you've turned into proper HTML files inside 2017/ with make html will be displayed on the website. Edits to the markdown source files in 2017_content/ do not automatically become html when pushed.

Hint: Adjust SITEURL inside pelicanconf.py to get links right when building locally.
