The Workshop Template

This repository is a template for creating a workshop page for eScience Center Digital Skills, and the Carpentries Software Carpentry, Data Carpentry, Library Carpentry. We are committed to offering a pleasant setup experience for our learners and organizers. If you run into problems, or would like to suggest improvements, please submit an issue or mail us.

Use this template

  1. Please do not fork this repository directly on GitHub. Instead, use GitHub's function to copy this template repository and customize it for your workshop. On this page (https://github.com/esciencecenter-digital-skills/next-workshop-template), click on the green Use this template button (top right).

  2. Select the owner for your new repository. This should be esciencecenter-digital-skills GitHub organisation.

  3. Choose a name for your workshop website repository. This name should have the form YYYY-MM-DD-carpentry-curriculum, e.g., 2016-12-01-ds-gpu, where YYYY-MM-DD is the start date of the workshop, ds stands for Digital Skills, and gpu is the workshop name in this example.

  4. Make sure the repository is public, leave "Include all branches" unchecked, and click on "Create repository from template". You will be redirected to your new copy of the workshop template repository.

  5. Your new website will be rendered at https://owner_name.github.io/YYYY-MM-DD-type-curriculum. For example, if esciencecenter-digital-skills is the owner, the workshop's URL will be https://esciencecenter-digital-skills.github.io/2021-11-02-ds-gpu/.

  6. Please do your work in the repository's main branch. A GitHub action is used for deployment that creates a gh-pages branch, see building a Jekyll site using a GitHub Action for more information.

Required information and customizing your workshop page

  1. The file data.csv in _data directory contains the workshop information. See the documention.

  2. The file eventbrite.json in _data directory contains eventbrite code. See the documention.

  3. Additional lesson information lives in a folder in workshop metadata repository. See the documention.

  4. There is a collaborative_document.md in the files directory of this repository. You can use it as a template to create a collaborative document on hackmd. Please note that you need to sign in.

If you are already familiar with Git, you can clone the lesson and workshop repositories, and edit these files. Then push your changes back to the repository. Otherwise, you can edit files using the GitHub web interface.

Preview changes locally

If you want to set up Jekyll so that you can preview changes on your own machine before pushing them to GitHub, you must install the software described in the lesson example setup instructions. Then, you can preview your site locally with:

make serve

and go to http://0.0.0.0:4000 to preview your site.

Creating Extra Pages

In rare cases, you may want to add extra pages to your workshop website. You can do this by putting either Markdown or HTML pages in the website's root directory and styling them according to the instructions given in the lesson template.
