kixlab.github.io

Our lab's website. We are using Jekyll, a static website generator.

Adding content

Member information

  1. Go to _data/members.yml
  2. Edit or add what you want
  3. You can add your name, email, homepage, and research interest

For the picture, please choose an image with 1:1 aspect ratio like the others. (Suggested size: 600x600px) Place the file at assets/img/members/your_name.jpg and reference it in members.yml with just your_name.jpg.

News and projects

  1. Add a new file in _posts/news/ or _posts/projects/ (for example, by duplicating and renaming an existing one).
  2. You can write the content in Markdown format
  3. If the post has a picture, place it in assets/img/news, or assets/img/projects, respectively.

Publications

  1. Go to _data/publications.yml
  2. Append the list by copy-pasting one of the items and filling in your information.
  3. If you need to upload additional materials (e.g., paper, poster, slide) please upload files to this repo. Then the URL will be https://www.kixlab.org/files/{path in the repo}.

How to check changes you made locally

Please check that the site still works before you submit a pull request. You can do this by:

bundle install && jekyll serve

or, if you want to use Docker

docker build -t kixlab-homepage . && docker run --rm -p 4000:4000 -v "$(pwd):/src" -it kixlab-homepage

Then visit localhost:4000 in your browser.

How to host other websites under kixlab.org

We have to update redirect rules defined in _redirects. For example, to host https://cs473-fall-2018.netlify.com in courses/cs473-fall-2018, We have to add two lines to _redirects

/courses/cs473-fall-2018 /courses/cs473-fall-2018/index.html 301!
/courses/cs473-fall-2018/* https://cs473-fall-2018.netlify.com/:splat 200

How to branch, commit and push

Please don't commit directly to master, if you can avoid it.

  1. Create a new branch from master: git checkout -b my-branch-name
  2. Add and commit your changes. git status to check what you did, git add ... to add new files, git commit -m "Put a comprehensive summary of your changes here"
  3. Push your new branch: git push (depending on your settings, git will complain and tell you what to do instead).
  4. Go to https://github.com/kixlab/kixlab.github.io and create a new Pull Request for your branch.
  5. Someone with authority will go on and merge your changes.
