Updating the RSpec website. #9
Conversation
|
I'd like us to host our own docs rather than relying on rubydoc.info for that. YARD has stuff built in to either run a live server or to generate static HTML that we could include in the site. I'd like for it to be versioned so that people can access the docs for 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, etc. |

Where can i find the designs and content for the home page, about page, etc? |

I'll share the Dropbox folder Katie gave us. A. On Sun, May 18, 2014 at 8:17 AM, Shamim [email protected] wrote:

so i put rspec demo on http://rspecwebsitedemo.ninefold-apps.com/ . @JonRowe can you please kindly take that out of heroku website? I'm also waiting for @mootpointer to share the designs with me so that we can have an estimate of how much more work it needs and how many resources we should allocate to this. As i mentioned before, i love rspec and i want it to have a good home :) |

Sounds good, I've put down the heroku app, how's the ninefold one deployed? It'd be good for either myself, @myronmarston or @cupakromer to able to deploy it. |
|
@myronmarston I'll take point on adding in generated Rdoc to this branch I like the idea of having it available ourselves :) |
|
@JonRowe you can either deploy it as a git url ( which is the way i deployed it ) or as a github repo. just make sure you select the refresh branch. |
|
@mootpointer thanks you. im checking them out right now |
|
@sjahandideh thanks for helping out with this! I'm excited to get this up and running 😸 To deploy are you saying that by simply pushing to the |
|
@cupakromer well that depends if you select the auto-deploy on the ninefold portal for this app. i haven't done that but im going to do it so that every change to the refresh branch triggers a redeploy. |
|
@cupakromer wait sorry i can't do that because i dont have owner permissions to this repo. |
|
Does it need a hook setting up? |
|
ah, yea we dont have that automatic redeploy option available with git urls. ill try and deploy it as a github reop so that we can setup the automatic redeployment. |
|
@JonRowe Ninefold is a platform to deploy your rails app and it doesn't really support middleman without the tricks that @mootpointer used before. its not a big deal, we can work it out. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Minor nitpick, maybe this could say Site crafted by… so that it is not implied that RSpec as a whole is crafted by Ninefold.

Seems fair to me. I put that there originally, since it was the tag I was using on all the Ninefold stuff I was building, but in the other cases, they were all Ninefold stuff.
Edit: It should be noted I am no longer employed by Ninefold, so my opinions do not represent Ninefold's.

@sjahandideh can you please make your changes as pull requests against this branch, so we can review, otherwise we don't get pinged on changes. |
|
(goes for you too @soulcutter but I'll let you off for that one ;) |
|
@JonRowe sure |
|
@JonRowe and btw, i've started working on about page. ill create a branch and later a pull request for the changes :) |
So opening a PR to discuss and work on the new RSpec website. I'd like to use the refresh branch here as development "master" and this should mean as we branch off it and merge back that we see all our lovely changes add up here. @mootpointer has been working on it but I know @cupakromer has expressed an interest in contributing here (mostly with awesome tutorial content see cupakromer/rspec-tutorial as has @sjahandideh. (I say this on the internets so it must be true).
See #8 for the Redpen draft's, I'm assuming there are further updated ones somewhere @mootpointer?
So I've taken the liberty of sprucing this up a bit as prep for getting it up here, you can see I've set middleman up to squash assets and use directory indexes for pretty urls all things that's be good on the real site. I've also linked up navigation and roughed some outlines for the sort of content we might want.
You can also find a live preview here: http://rspec-www-preview.herokuapp.com/ (Sorry @sjahandideh, feel free to setup a preview on @ninefold instead, I just can't do that easily)
