[pgrouting-dev] RE: New website for review

pgRouting pgrouting-dev
1

Hi all,

I think the new website looks great, Daniel. My only suggestion is to
incorporate some release notes in the downloads page with the last
several releases (http://update.pgrouting.org/download.html). This
could even be similar to the current method of the pgRouting website
with just one page of release notes with the latest release at the top
e.g. http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes

Thanks,
Jordan

Hi list,

It has started many months ago, but I'm glad to say there is some visible
output now.
I created a new pgRouting website, built with Sphinx, and I copied the
relevant content from current TRAC wiki.

If you have a time, please take a look at the current version and tell me,
if something is missing.
Let me know if you have ideas what could be done better:
http://update.pgrouting.org/
(on the first page the "news" block and the "callout" to add some banners
like the one for FOSS4G 2011 for example are still missing)

If everything looks OK, I would propose to change to the new website in
about a week or so.

Next steps would be then:

- Copy relevant tickets from TRAC to GitHub (-> Anton)
- Cache the discussion forum as HTML and upload it to
http://download.osgeo.org/pgrouting/forum/
- Prepare redirect from current http://pgrouting.postlbs.org to
http://www.pgrouting.org (also try to redirect missing links as good as
possible) (-> Orkney)
- Change DNS record of pgrouting.org (Daniel)
- Make the change final and announce it.

If someone wants to help with the website, fix typos or add/edit content,
I'm happy to add you as a committer to the repository on Github.
There is a cron job running on the server that checks the Git repository
every hour and updates the website if there are changes.

Aside the website, a few other things have changed, mostly related to GitHub
hosting:

- All pgRouting related repositories will be in
https://github.com/pgRouting
- pgrouting (library): https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting
- website: https://github.com/pgRouting/website
- workshop (FOSS4G 2010): https://github.com/pgRouting/workshop
- osm2pgrouting: https://github.com/pgRouting/osm2pgrouting
- pgrouting-contrib:
https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting-contrib (place
to collect wrapper functions, examples, etc.)

Especially to "pgrouting-contrib" and "website" I want to add anyone as
committer, who would like to contribute, without restrictions.
For all other repositories I hope that Git will make it easier to propose
changes and patches by creating your own fork and sending "pull requests" to
apply changes to the pgRouting repository.

It has been a long way.

Daniel

Good point, Jordan!

I added a release notes page as on TRAC and the website should update automatically within the next hour.

Steve, I have also edited the “Developer” page and added links to Git manuals as well as a section “How to contribute” with a link to a page, that needs to be filled with content: http://update.pgrouting.org/docs/howto/contribute.html

I also edited the “git clone URL’s”:

For those, who have read/write access the command is:

git clone git@github.com:pgRouting/pgrouting.git

You need to have a SSH key registered.

If you just want to get a local copy without writing back to the repository:

git clone git://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting.git pgrouting

If you want to have a local copy and use GitHub to send “Pull Requests”, you need to

  1. Create an account on Github
  2. Fork the repository into your account
  3. Work on the forked repository
  4. Send “Pull Requests” to contribute changes back to the main repository

That’s how I understand how it should work, but I’m not a Git professional either.

Daniel,

Thanks for the updates. I will read over the git docs when I have a chance and look at getting an ssh key.

I was able to get a read-only copy with not problems.
