The source code for Perl.com website
Home Page: https://www.perl.com
Hello!
Perl.com is a website dedicated to Perl programming code, culture, and community news.
If you're interested in writing for Perl.com, check out our contributing guide. You can send us a pull request with your article. Please open a new GitHub issue if you have any questions or feedback. We're always looking for new writers and material!
To point to the official perldotcom account (or TPF).
At least for the most famous or still active perl programmers.
Would be good to have OpenGraph and Twitter Card headers, so that Facebook and Twitter show images when the site's content is shared.
I'll have a look to see how easy it is over the next couple of days.
e.g. data/author/tom-christiansen-nathan-torkington.json
should be two separate files. It probably comes from when Article.pm
extracts the author names from either the RDF or vcard in the article
html.
to migrated perltricks articles
As a way to scan the article list it's a useful tool, but doesn't show on the front page?
We should have mostly a handful of colors:
Right now it's just the twitter feed for The Perl Foundation. I think we should hook up Perlybot to publish its feed to twitter.
Would need a google account to associate this with.
I thought it was a quicklist of articles on perl.com, but instead it's ... something else?
This happens sometimes. Sorry i don't have more details, but it simply happens sometimes.
Got this in Opera v12.18 with JS off.
The latest article:
https://www.perl.com/pub/2014/02/perl-today-february-2014.html
Contains text in Russian. When it's translated, the text is corrupted:
http://localhost:1313/article/pub/2014/02/perl-today-february-2014/
Looks like a whole bunch of full-size images for "behind the fold" stuff are automatically downloaded on first load.
All of the old links should still work, but don't right now on the static site:
The path contains an extra /article component and is missing the .html ending
I'd very strongly prefer to see my old stuff under a plain CC BY-SA license. I really dislike the NC clause.
That said, I don't know if I have standing to request that, since I think my stuff was written for ORA way back when. If they licensed the content to TPF only under CC BY-SA-NC 3.0 then there's not much I can do about it.
But regardless, it might be good to support per-article licenses.
Visiting / should be the same as /article
The unicode cookbook and style guide index slides in particular may need
formatting
e.g. "development" is too broad, break articles having that category into
more specific, useful categories. Likewise "tutorials" isn't really useful
as much of the site content is teaching material. Maybe "tutorials" should
be a tag instead.
For now I think it can stay on perltricks.com, assuming brwosers don't
prevent it from loading on perl.com because of cross-domain requests.
Looks like you redirect to it via a non-GET request, leading to the search query not being retained in the url of the final page. Bad ux.
https://www.perl.com/about/ links to https://github.com/dnmfarrell/perldotcom/CONTRIBUTING.md, which doesn't exist.
So users can send pull requests wih fixes and/or raise issues.
Jim suggests:
Can we add a small box above Community Articles with:
Many of the articles must have broken links, scan for these and figure out
whether they should be updatred or removed.
Right now clicking them doesn't lead to the browser loading anything, but instead just sitting there for a few seconds until JS does the thing. Bad ux. Especially on bad networks where things might just break silently in the background.
(for new articles)
"Side note: Why aren't comments allowed on Perl.com? A blog without comments isn't a blog." - https://www.reddit.com/r/perl/comments/7r1b33/an_open_letter_to_the_perl_community/dsts4sb/
Basically, tell people Perl.com uses reddit (or whatever) for comments and explain that as a volunteer thing we don't have time or willpower to create and manage such a thing. Link to the reddit comments at the end of each article.
https://perl.com/article/monitoring-my-phone-s-internet-activity-with-netflows-and-perl/ has an image styled code segments. On the rss feed the image is elided, and the code segments are not styled.
The old one looks tired. Use the Camel icon instead.
I expected an actual search, but got only DDG, this was an unwelcome surprise and in the spirit of not surprising the user it should make clear that it's that.
Trying to find articles by e.g. rough timeframe is only possible in a hacky way right now. There should be some kind of archive/calendar/??? view.
This program would check an article file to ensure everything is as it should be:
extract_article_links - short codes
``` " tchrist quoting
` runaway code line (tchrist article) - unclosed (maybe limit length of stuff on the inside)
It would be even easier to suggest a correction if the above text were hotlinked to e.g. https://github.com/dnmfarrell/perldotcom/edit/master/content/article/a-hackerspace-webcam.md
Basically review and don't migrate the bad ones.
Get Sawyer's author info. I've already emailed him asking for a pull request.
And then apply perl.com styling to it
This repo should be moved to the Perl organization, and the tpf.github.io
submodule removed. Additionally the perl.com directory should be deleted
as it duplicates many files, including several large media files.
Particularly the "more" icons top right are bad about that.
This can present problems for browsers/keyboard combos where no enter key is present. (Certain mobile devices.)
This article should be ready to go but could use another set of eyes. It's in the nadim-data-dump branch.
e.g. the tutorials have a table but all of the entries are in a single row
