TIGRLAB Website

This is TIGRLab's website, built on the Skinny Bones Jekyll Theme.

Note -- you need to clone the gh-pages branch, not the master branch, if you ever want to start from scratch.

Edit _data/???.yml to change the navigation features of the site.

Note that the 'category' field in the header of each post (under _/posts) will determine what post type will end up in the kewl grid -- NOT the folder the post falls under (this is more for humans).

Each header / footer entry should have an identically named folder containing an index.md file.

Running the site locally for testing

The best way to run the site locally if you want to test some changes is with Docker.

    # First clone the repo
    git clone https://github.com/TIGRLab/tigrlab.github.io.git

    # Switch to the site directory
    cd tigrlab.github.io

    # Make sure the 'gem' dependencies are installed
    docker run --rm -it \
        -v "$PWD":/srv/jekyll \
        -v jekyll_bundle:/usr/local/bundle \
        jekyll/jekyll:pages bundle install

    # Start the server with the 'dev' config and jekyll set to production mode
    # so resources serve correctly
    docker run --rm -it \
        -v "$PWD":/srv/jekyll \
        -v jekyll_bundle:/usr/local/bundle \
        -p 4000:4000 \
        -e JEKYLL_ENV=production \
        jekyll/jekyll:pages bundle exec jekyll serve \
            --verbose \
            --watch \
            --force_polling \
            --config _config.yml,_config_dev.yml
