This site is designed to make it easy to add small updates, like adding:
- new members
- old members
- projects
- publications
It just involves updating the right yaml file, and putting images in the right directory.
If you want to make larger changes to the site, like adding a new type of page, it will require more work.
To update the site, you will need some familiarity with git. If you don't, brush up first.
First, you need to clone it:
git clone git@github.com:ifp-uiuc/ifp-uiuc.github.io.git
If you have already cloned the repo, make sure your copy of the repo is up-to-date:
git pull origin master
Next make changes to the files. Once you are done: add, commit, and push the changes:
git add .
git commit -m 'Description.'
git push origin master
To add a new member, edit ./_data/members.yml. Add a new entry at the end of the file in the form:
- name: Shiyu Chang
image: shiyu.jpg
text:
social:
- title: envelope #use for email address
url: mailto:chang87@illinois.edu
- title: link
url: http://www.ifp.illinois.edu/~chang87/
Then move the picture into ./assets/img/members.
When you are done, push the changes.
To add a past member, edit ./_data/past_members.yml. Add a new entry at the end of the file in the form:
- name: Ashutosh Garg
job: Bloomreach Inc.
email: ashutosh@ifp.uiuc.edu
url: http://www.ifp.illinois.edu/~ashutosh/
When you are done, push the changes.
To add a new project, edit ./_data/projects.yml. Add a new entry at the end of the file in the form:
- name: Project Name
image: project-figure-name.png
text: 'Description.'
Then move the picture into ./assets/img/projects.
When you are done, push the changes.
To add a publication, edit ./data/publications.yml. Find the appropriate section (e.g. Books, Book Chapters, Journal Papers, etc), and add a new entry under articles. For example:
- title: "Paper Title."
authors: 'A. Author, T. Huang.'
venue: 'Conference name'
year: '2016'
When you are done, push the changes.
