Repository for the SRCF's main website

srcf.net

This is the repository for the main SRCF website.

The directory _srcf contains the assets (CSS, images etc.) that are used by all websites under the srcf.net domain.

The faq directory is a legacy path that has been superseded by the information at the SRCF documentation website. Apache server redirects in the main .htaccess file ensure that all URLs under faq (except for index.html) will be directed to the appropriate documentation page.

Development build

Please note: you don't need to build the pages locally in order to make edits to the content. Just edit the HTML files and view changes in your browser.

The website is largely vanilla HTML but uses server-side includes (SSI) run by the Apache web server at runtime to add header and footer information. Dynamic information is added to some of the pages, such as the number of users in the database, by calling Python scripts. Since the SSI and dynamic information are only available on the server it isn't currently possible to run a build locally and get a fully rendered website just from cloning the repo alone.

To build the pages run from the project's root:

$ make

Then navigate to index.html in your browser.
