Developer notes

Featured posts and tech notes

To feature a blog post or tech note add

featured: true

to its metadata. No need to remove the field afterwards:

the featured post or tech note at the top of the homepage is the latest featured one.
the two featured posts or tech notes at the bottom of the homepage and at the top of the blog list page is the latest featured ones.

Criteria for selecting featured posts and tech notes:

always one by a community member (about peer reviewed package or other); could be most-recent or most-compelling post
second featured post or tech note by rOpenSci team or team member about rOpenSci announcement, big collaborative post, infrastructure, package, etc. In absence of a recent compelling post this would be the most recent post or tech note by team member. Will never be 2months in 2mins.

Highlighted blog "categories"

For the three blue cards that are on the blog page, edit data/blog/highlights.json

Featured events

To feature an event or comm call add

featured: true

to its metadata.

The featured event or comm call at the top of the events page is the nearest featured event.

Comm calls

To add a new comm call, add a folder under content/commcalls with a Markdown file called index.md.

Use the YAML to store information, except from the event summary that is the content of the Markdown file. Please do not use "&" in the description.

Store speaker pictures in the folder. If needed create author files for the organizer(s) and speaker(s).

Summary of the event.

Careers

To add a new job posting, add a file under content/careers.

---
slug: "unique-slug"
title: "Job Title in Title Case"
date: YYYY-MM-DD
expirydate: YYYY-MM-DD
location: Well, the location
conditions: Here you can add if it's full-time, an internship, in a few words
---

Markdown text, details of the posting, including application deadline.

expirydate is the expiry date of the job posting page: from that day, when the website is built, the job ad will disappear from the website. Ideally, set a deadline prominently in the text, and set expirydate to 2 days after that to not be bitten by time zones stuff.

Brands

To add a new partner for the homepage bottom section

add an image (SVG) under themes/ropensci/assets/brands (the image will be minified by Hugo so don't worry about size)
add an entry in data/partners/brand.json (don't forget commas in and before the entry)

{
   "name": "NASA",
   "img": "NASA_logo_gray.svg",
   "url": "https://www.nasa.gov/"
}

Papers

To add a new paper to the resources page, add an entry under data/papers/papers.json. If there is no DOI add a field called "otherid".

{
"authors": "Ram, K., Boettiger, C., Chamberlain, S., Ross, N., Salmon, M., & Butland, S.",
"year": "2018",
"title": "A Community of Practice Around Peer-review for Long-term Research Software Sustainability",
"journal": "Computing in Science & Engineering",
"doi": "10.1109/MCSE.2018.2882753",
"url": "https://doi.org/10.1109/MCSE.2018.2882753",
"pdf": "/pdfs/2019-ropensci-software-review.pdf",
"type": "organization"
}

Team member

Edit the JSON file under data/team.

For adding someone, create a new entry.
For changing someone's role, move information between the "roles" and "past_roles" field.
To list someone in the alumni section also add an "alumnus" field.
Do not forget to update the "image" field, and store a high-res square picture (at least 500x500px) under themes/ropensci/static/img/team.

The data is used for the about page and, for the editors, for the software-review page.

If the person also authors blog post, also make sure the file under author/ uses the right title and img.

Tweaking CSS, JS

Cf https://github.com/ropensci-org/roweb3-styles

Note that main.min.css that contains all the CSS is stored under themes/ropensci/assets so that Hugo can fingerprint it (to prevent browsers from using a cached version after we've tweaked the CSS).
