Open Science Community Delft

This is the online home of the Open Science Community Delft, officially launched on Sep 17, 2020.

The website is forked from the awesome Open Life Science programme website - the programme is led by 3 of the best people in the world, co-created by a beautiful community.

We're in the process of adapting this site for our community - please see below on how you can help out. We ask for your patience as we iron out all the glitches and stitches.

Welcome!

This document (the README file) is a hub to give you some information about the project. Jump straight to one of the sections below, or just scroll down to find out more.

Get involved

Please note that it's very important to us that we maintain a positive and supportive environment for everyone who wants to participate. When you join us we ask that you follow our code of conduct in all interactions both on and offline.

How can I generate the website locally?

You need a ruby environment (version >= 2.4). Either you have it installed and you know how to install Bundler and Jekyll and then run Jekyll, or you use (mini-)conda, a package management system that can install all these tools for you. You can install it by following the instructions on this page: https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/install/index.html

Using Miniconda on Linux/MacOS

Open a terminal

Clone this GitHub repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/osc-delft/osc-delft.github.io.git

Navigate to the osc-delft.github.io/ folder with cd
Set up the conda environment:
```
$ make create-env
```
Install the project's dependencies:
```
$ make install
```
Start the website:
```
$ make serve
```
Open the website in your favorite browser at: http://127.0.0.1:4000/

Run the link checks

To avoid dead or wrong links, run the link checkers:

$ make check-html

Using Ruby on Windows

We asume you have a working installation of Git for Windows

Download and install the latest version of Ruby+Devkit for Windows. Mind about a 32-bit or 64-bit. Keep all the default options. Put attention to where the location of the Ruby's root directory is located. For example, C:\Ruby27-x64
When the installation is done a command prompt will pop up. Type 3 and press enter. This will install the Ruby's toolchain. When done, press enter once more.
Install Jekyll and Bundler. On the same command prompt run:
```
> gem install jekyll bundler
```

On the Ruby command prompt, use git to clone the repository.

> git clone https://github.com/osc-delft/osc-delft.github.io.git

Got to the root of the repository and install the dependencies
```
> cd ./osc-delft.github.io
> bundle install
```
The previous command will install all dependencies except for the libcurl library. We will install the library manually. Donwnload curl for Windows, choose a version that fits your OS.
Unzip the file and look for the libcurl.dll file in the .\bin directory. If using the 64-bit version, the file is called libcurl-x64.dll, remane the file to libcurl.dll
Copy the libcurl.dll file to the \bin folder in the Ruby's root directory.
Compile and run the local server:

bundle exec jekyll serve

Open the website in your favorite browser at: http://127.0.0.1:4000/

Create a new blog post

To create a new blog post:

Create a file in the folder _posts with a file named following the pattern yyyy-mm-dd-name.md

Add some metadata on the top of the file

---
layout: post
title: <title of the post>
author: <github id of the author>
image: images/yyyy-mm-dd-name.jpg
---

Add content of the post in the file in Markdown
Add images in images/posts/

Add someone as member

Add someone to the list of people:

Open the _data/people.yaml file
Create a new entry there (using Lastname-Firstname) following the alphabetical order
Fill in information using the tags:

first-name (mandatory)
last-name (mandatory)
photo
position
faculty (mandatory)
department
twitter
email
website
gitter
orcid
linkedin
researchgate
expertise
motivation

Add the person to their corresponding faculty list to be visible on the website, on data/members-metadata.yaml.

Add many people in a row to _data/people.yaml: (the following set of instruction is not up to date and needs amending)

Create a CSV file with at least the following columns (named this way):
- First name
- Last name
- Email
- Twitter username
- Website
- ORCID
- Affiliation
- Country
- Pronouns
- Areas of expertise (1 element per line)
- Bio
A form like this one can be used to generate such csv
Get a copy of the CSV file at the root of this folder
Activate the conda environment
```
$ source activate osc-delft-website
```
Or alternatively, get locally:
- Python 3.*
- pyyaml
- pandas
Run the script which extract information from the CSV file and add them to _data/people.yaml
```
$ python bin/extract-people.py -i <path to csv file>
```

List a new event

The event calendar displayed is automatically generated from a file _data/events.yaml.

In this file, for each week, it is listed the timeframe and the different calls planned. For each call, several information are given: title:

date-time: string, e.g. "December 1, 2020, 5-7pm"
location: string, e.g. zoom
content: a short description of the event, markdown can be 20used
website: a link to the event website
