Capstone project at Innopolis University

Setup

Throughout the project, you will be required to write progress reports. These reports will be published on the Capstone project website. To contribute to the website, you will need to follow these steps:

One of the team member (e.g. john5000) should fork this repository under the name of the team (e.g. dream-team). This will create a copy of the repository under the name john5000/dream-team.
Install latest version of Hugo on your local machine. Also, make sure you have a code editor installed. VSCode is recommended, but you may use the one you prefer.
Clone the forked repository with submodules to your local machine using

git clone --recursive https://github.com/john5000/dream-team

Run the website locally

To start the website localy, run

hugo server --minify --theme=hugo-book

The last line in the terminal output should look like

Web Server is available at http://localhost:port/ (by default: http://localhost:1313/)

Visit http://localhost:port in your browser to access your local instance of the website. Now all of you changes in the website's source code should be propagated automatically.

Contribution rules

We set up a few rules to make the contribution process as smooth as possible:

When you firstly clone the repository, you should create a folder with your group name (same as the name of the forked repository e.g. dream-team) in both content/docs/$YEAR/ and static/$YEAR/ (e.g. content/docs/2024/dream-team and static/2024/dream-team). This is where you will store your progress reports and static content respectively. Note, that if you modify any other files, you will not pass the CI/CD pipeline and your changes will not be merged.
For each progress report you will have to create respective markdown file (e.g. content/docs/2024/dream-team/week1.md).
You should create _index.md file in your group folder (e.g. content/docs/2024/dream-team/_index.md) with the following content:

---
bookCollapseSection: true
title: "Dream Team"
---

Git essentials (for beginners)

After you feel you have made enough changes, run

git add .

to stage all changes, then

git commit -m "Your very informative progress report that describes the changes you've made"

to commit your changes to the local repository. Finally, run

git push

to push your changes to the remote repository or

git push --set-upstream origin your-branch-name

if you are pushing for the first time.

Pull requests

Now that you have made your changes, you will need to properly submit them so that no merge conflicts happen.

Instructions to merge your branch with the master branch

Open your github repo (e.g. https://github.com/john5000/dream-team)
Click on Contribute button
Click on Open pull request
Make sure that the base repository is IU-PR/Capstone_project and the base branch is master
Make sure that the head repository is your repository name (e.g. john5000/dream-team) and the head branch is your-branch-name
Name your pull request in a format My_Cool_Project_Group_Name (Week X): Very short description
Once done, press Create pull request
Make sure that the CI/CD pipeline has passed. If not, fix the errors and push the changes again to your branch (you don't need to create a new pull request, just push the changes to your branch)
You can preview your changes by clicking on Deploy preview link provided by netlify bot in the pull request comments
Done! Admins will review your work and merge your changes into the main repo soon

Shortcodes

This blog template uses a handful of shortcodes. Shortcode (in a nutshell) is "mark" inside your markdown code that enables certain features within its code block. For example, you can define a codeblock of LaTeX code that renders LaTeX formulas. You can also define a codeblock that describes a structure of a graph. Below are example of these two.

LaTeX

How to write in LaTeX:

{{<katex>}}
your latex formula
{{</katex>}}

This produces an inline formula. If you want to center your formula, use display property like so:

{{<katex display>}}
your centered latex formula
{{</katex>}}

Latex cheatsheet

Mermaid (graphs)

How to create graphs:

Take a look at Mermaid syntax
Pick a graph you want to use
Write necessary code

Ex:

{{<mermaid>}}
gitGraph
  commit
  commit
  branch develop
  commit
  commit
  commit
  checkout main
  commit
  commit
{{</mermaid>}}

will be rendered as

gitGraph
  commit
  commit
  branch develop
  commit
  commit
  commit
  checkout main
  commit
  commit

Refer to Mermaid documentation for examples.

PDF embedding

To embed a PDF file, use the following shortcode:

{{< embed-pdf url="/2024/dream-team/some-file.pdf" >}}

Other shortcodes

This project's shortcodes and their descriptions can be found in layouts/shortcodes. They all use the same syntax:

{{<shortcode>}}
...stuff/..
{{</shortcode>}}

Try them out if you think they are useful in your progress reports.
