Micromata Labs - Jekyll theme

Based on Desk Theme by Unbound Studio.

Installation

Prerequisites

  1. Ruby 3.0.x
  • I highly recommend you install ruby using rvm!
  1. Bundler & Jekyll
  • Can be installed using: gem install bundler jekyll
  1. Node >= 14 (or 12, it's not that important for this)

Dependencies

This project uses two dependency management systems:

  • Bundler for Jekyll plugins
  • NPM for frontend dependencies

Bundler

Bundler dependencies can be installed by running:

bundle install

On macOS, there might be an error when building the eventmachine dependency because of openssl. This can be solved by installing openssl and then pointing bundler to the correct location:

brew install openssl
gem install eventmachine -v '1.2.7' --source 'https://rubygems.org/' -- --with-cppflags=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include

⚠️ On a macOS with Apple Silicon, use:

brew install openssl
gem install eventmachine -- --with-openssl-dir=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/openssl@1.1/1.1.1m/

Do not forget to check the version of of your openssl, e.g. /openssl@1.1/1.1.1m/ !

NPM

NPM dependencies can be installed by running:

npm install

Run the following to generate your site:

npm run build

Development

To develop the site using livereload and extensive error reports, run the following:

bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload --trace

Adding author details

Add new authors details in _config.yml:

# Author settings, displayed on post and doc pages if front matter references author name e.g. author: ckuehl
authors:
  mkuehnel:
    name:         Michael Kühnel
    title:        Frontend Developer
    shortdesc:    Michael ist seit Netscape 4.7.8 im Geschäft und freut sich, dass dank Webstandards seitdem alles besser wird. Folge Michael bei <a href="https://twitter.com/mkuehnel">Twitter</a> oder <a href="https://github.com/mischah">GitHub</a>.
    avatar:       avatar-mkuehnel.jpg
    email:        ckuehl(at)micromata.de
  • Add a reference author name, e.g. ckuehl

  • name: Add full name, e.g. Christian Kuehl

  • title: Add a job title, e.g. Developer

  • shortdesc: Add a short description (optional); you can use inline html to add links etc.

  • avatar: Add an avatar image (optional), upload the image to /uploads. If you do not add an avatar, a default avatar will be used.

  • email: Add an email adress (optional), e.g. ckuehl(at)micromata.de

Create a new blog article

To create a new post, you can create a new markdown file inside the _posts directory by following the recommended file naming format:

YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP

Where YEAR is a four-digit number, MONTH and DAY are both two-digit numbers, and MARKUP is the file extension representing the format used in the file. For example, the following are examples of valid post filenames:

2021-01-12-micromata-labs-is-awesome.md
2020-09-04-how-to-write-a-blog.md

Post requires front matter, everything in between the first and second --- are part of the YAML Front Matter, and everything after the second --- will be rendered with Markdown and show up as “Content”.

The following is a post file with different configurations you can add as example:

---
title: Your Blog Post Title…  # The full title of your post
author: atippel               # Authors reference name (see _config.yml)
categories: [Best Practices]  # Blog post category, e.g. "Best Practices", "Quick Tips" (these are the only categories at the moment)
tags: [featured, java, maven] # Group similar topics, e.g. "java". Use "featured", if you want to show up the new blog post on the home page.
shortdesc: Versionskennzeichen automatisch und zentral vergeben. # Show as a short description of your blog post on the home page
---

# Here comes your blog post!
Lorem ipsum...

To keep things more organized, add post images to /assets/posts/ directory, and add theme images to /assets/img/ directory.

Creating a project article

Step 1: Create new project article (for Micromata Open Source projects) in _docs folder, similar to creating posts, but with following front matter settings (for example, the filename for the article would be check-packages.md):

---
title: Check Packages
subtitle: This is your optional doc subtitle
image: logo-baumeister.jpg # Add your project logo or image at the top of the page (optional)
tags: [npm, node, cli] # Group similar topics; adds a list of similar projects at page bottom (optional)
author: ckuehl
---

Step 2: Add your new document title to the header navigation. Header navigation for project posts can be edited in _data/navigation_header.yml:

- title: Open Source
    dropdown:

      - title: Baumeister
        url: /docs/baumeister/

      - title: Check Packages				# Name for navigation drop down
        url: /docs/check-packages/	# file name, without file extension

      - title: Java API for KML
        url: /docs/java-api-for-kml/

      - title: Home Made Projects
        url: /docs/home-made-projekte/

Step 3: Add your new document title to the sidebar navigation. Sidebar navigation for project post can be edited in _data/navigation_docs.yml:

- title: Micromata Projekte # Section title
  docs:
  - baumeister
  - check-packages          # file name from _docs folder, without file extension
  - java-api-for-kml
  - home-made-projekte

Creating entries for home made project

Create new entries in _data/navigation_boxes_homemade.yml :

- title: Rickrollify
  desc: A Chrome extension which rickrollifies every link on every website – Psst!
  url: https://github.com/bullgit/Rickrollify

Note: Home made project are just a list, they do not have their own project page.

Project boxes section

These are the project teaser on the home page. Project boxes are added in _data/navigation_boxes.yml, e.g.:

- title: Check Packages
  desc: Check packages ermöglicht die Überprüfung von npm Dependencies eines Projektes via whitelisting (oder blacklisting).
  icon:								# not used
  doc: check-packages	# file name from _docs folder, without file extension

- title: ProjectForge
  desc: Eine webbasiertes Tool zur Unterstützung aller Verwaltungsaufgaben im Projektmanagement und der Unternehmensorganisation.
  icon:								# not used
  doc: projectforge
