Typical tasks
Typical tasks of maintaining the website are:
- Update version of Gpg4win (occasioanlly, duration: ca. 15 minutes)
- Fix typos (whenever you or someone else finds one, duration: few minutes)
Anonymously take a first look
- Get the sources for the website anonymously (without write access):
svn checkout https://svn.wald.intevation.org/svn/gpg4win/trunk/ gpg4win-trunk-anon - Configure the whole package:
cd gpg4win-trunk-anon
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --host=i586-mingw32msvc
- Build the website locally:
cd doc/website
make -f buildhtml.mk
and open it in your browser (file index.html). - Read file README, make your changes, build the website again and reopen it in your browser.
What to do initially to become an active team member
A prior "Hello" on one of the Gpg4win mailing lists and your expression of interest to join the team is of course a good idea.- At wald.intevation.de you
should
create
a user account.
This is established quickly because it is an automatic process. - Request membership for project Gpg4win.
This takes a little time because one of the project administrators has to answer the request. - Create a SSH key and upload it to wald.intevation.de
- Get the source for the website:
svn checkout svn+ssh://USER@svn.wald.intevation.org/gpg4win/trunk/ gpg4win-trunk
where USER is the user account at wald.intevation.de. - Configure the whole package:
cd gpg4win-trunk
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --host=i586-mingw32msvc
How to update the website and put it online
- Apply your desired changes in the directory gpg4win-trunk/doc/website which you retrieved via SVN. The file REAMDE in this directory will provide you some helpful hints.
- Create local version:
make -f buildhtml.mk
and open file index.html in your browser. - Are your changes complete, check them again:
svn diff | less
and then upload them with some adequate comments to the SVN repository:
svn commit
- The last step is to put the new version online:
make -f buildhtml.mk online
