This is a Sinatra app, deployed athttp://docs.railsbridge.org.The RailsBridge documentation project is home to a few subprojects, including the RailsBridge installfest instructions, which leads students through the various complicated setup instructions for getting Ruby, Rails, Git, etc. installed on their computer (whatever combination of computer, OS, and version they happened to bring to the workshop!), as well as the RailsBridge workshop "Suggestotron" curriculum.
Each subproject (a "site" ) comprises files stored under the "sites" directory; for instance, the installfest instructions are located at ROOT/sites/en/installfest, while the intro rails curriculum can be found under ROOT/sites/en/intro-to-rails. (The "en" means "English" -- see "Locales" below.)
These files can be in any of these formats:
(If multiple files exist with the same base name,.stepis preferred over.md,and.mdover.mw.)
bundle install
bundle exec rake run
If the above fails (say, becausererundoesn't work on your system), try
rackup
Then openhttp://localhost:9292in a web browser, and verify that you can navigate the installfest slides.
To serve sites from "sites/en", usebundle exec rake runor a vanilla deploy.
To server sites from another locale (say, "es" or Spanish)...
$ SITE_LOCALE=es bundle exec rake run
The server listens on0.0.0.0:9292.
Now you have to set up subdomain mappings for the site. If you have Pow, run:
$ echo 9292 > ~/.pow/railsbridge # works for any subdomain
If you don't have Pow, add the following line to/etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 es.railsbridge.dev # works for single subdomain
Now you can accesshttp://es.railsbridge.dev:9292for debugging.
Just make sure the server responds to a locale subdomain:http://es.railsbridge.org
Use alocaleorlparameter:http://docs.railsbridge.org/?l=es.
Note that in this mode, links are not rewritten, so if they fail you will have to manually add the parameter again.
