# nooo-hbsc

The new homebrewserver.club website.

> https://homebrewserver.club/

## Build the site locally

### System requirements

Install the system requirements:

```bash
$ apt install -y python3 python3-dev python3-venv
```

### Python requirements

Then create a virtual environment and activate it:

```bash
$ python3 -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate
```

Then install the requirements:

```bash
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Generating the site

Generate the content and run the server:

```bash
$ pelican content
$ pelican --listen
```

Then the site is available at the following URL:

> http://localhost:8000

## Working with the site

* Website articles and content are in [content](./content)
* The website theme is in [themes/homebrewtheme](./themes/homebrewtheme)
* Images are stored in [content/staticfiles/images](./content/staticfiles/images)

While working on the site, you can run the following:

```bash
$ invoke livereload
```

And then the Pelican development server will automatically reload
when you make changes. It is also possible to use:

```bash
$ pelican --autoreload --listen
```

However, this will not automatically refresh your browser page.

### Writing drafts

Use `Status: draft` in the article metadata. When the site is generated, the
`output/drafts` folder will be created with your new draft article. This allows
us to work on new articles and still store the pages here in the repository.

## Deploying the site

Just run the usual:

```
$ git push origin master
```
