academic_homepage2

A simple homepage for academic use, based on Angular and Bootstrap.

This replaces http://github.com/pettni/academic_homepage which was built using the deprecated AngularJS.

The main changes are:

Using Angular instead of AngularJS
Less dependence on remote js/css, they are instead installed via npm and compiled. The only remaining remote css is Academicons
Better structured publication code
Linking to individual publications
Small widget for posting recent news
Publications can be included in other parts of the site (although this is still hacky)
With Angular the deployed page is optimized

Features

Lightweight.
Creates a searchable list of publications from a .bib file.
Includes node scripts for streamlined development with livereload etc.

Publication list

If the .bib file has entries named "Abstract" (text), "Url" (url) or "Slides" (url), the information will be appended to the publication list. Currently, there is support for @article, @inproceedings, @mastersthesis, @phdthesis, @book, and @inbook.

Development

For easy development/personalization, clone the repo and run

npm install

to install all dependencies. Then run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Deployment

Execute

ng build --prod --deploy-url "DEPLOY_URL" --base-href "BASE_HREF"

where DEPLOY_URL is the address where the page will be deployed (e.g. http://its.caltech.edu), and BASE_HREF is the location on that server (e.g. /~lnilsson/)
