Channel or playlist contribution guidelines
- Conference talks are accepted.
- Panel discussions are accepted.
- High quality video tutorials are accepted (only time-proven channels, with no aggressive marketing)
- No webinars.
- No commercial videos (product or company advertisement or hiring promotions).
- We do not add videos shorter than 5 minites. Short videos are automatically ignored.
- If your channel contains commercial videos, but you still want to share some of the technical videos, please, create a playlist and share that instead.
Channels and playlists can be added to channels.yml.
How to edit video metadata
- Please use spaces for formatting.
- Please, only add speaker information if it is a real single person. Collective names or organization accounts will not be accepted as a valid speaker metadata. We plan to implement multiple speakers per video at some point (follow up here).
The structure of the video metadata looks like this:
tags:
- tag1
- tag2
speaker:
name: Speaker full name
twitter: SpeakerTwitterHandle (no @)
title: Title goes here
language: English
recordingDate: 1444245407 #
description: Some text goes here #
How to remove a video
If you want a video to be removed, create a new GitHub issue and explain why you think the video should be removed. In particular, we'd appreciate if you created issues for marketing videos.
Video auto-tagging
In addition to editing video metadata, auto-tagging is supported. Auto-tagging takes place when video metadata is modified or a new video is ingested.
Contribute to auto-tagging by modifying tags.yml
Speaker auto-discovery
When a new video is ingested, Dev.Tube tries to determine author's twitter account.
Contribute to speaker auto-discovery by modifying speakers.yml.
FAQ
I made a contribution, but do no see the change
Videos are updated few times in a week, but we try to do it more frequently. We're also working on the solution to make changes on the fly.
