How to add a new conference?

For example, in order to update the website with Neurips2050, do:

1. Update config.py. Add a key neurips2050 to the dictionary and provide the required templates to be able to query data from OpenReview. Data in OpenReview are represented as notes. To query them, you have to specify an invitation. You need to add an invitation to get all submissions, and invitation templates for getting decision and rating information for ecah paper. The patterns may differ between years. Check the notebook opnenreview_api_sandbox.ipynb that helps with figuring out the required fields.
2. Gather titles, abstracts, and other metadata from OpenReview by running python get_metadata.py neurips2050.
3. Generate paper thumbnails by running python get_thumbs.py neurips2050.
4. Test the webpage locally by running python app.py.
5. Freeze the Flask application into a set of static files by running python freeze.py.

Dependencies

Generating paper thumbnails requires ImageMagick. Be sure to tick the installation of legacy utilities (e.g. montage). Moreover, you need to install Ghostscript in order to rasterize pdfs.
