Lehigh University Library Technology Blog

Blog entries are created in the posts directory as markdown files. Each blog post is put into a directory named after the year/month/day it was created.

Testing locally

You can run the site locally.

git clone [email protected]:lehigh-university-libraries/blog.git
cd blog
# replace with actual year/month/day
mkdir -p YYYY/MM/DD
vi YYYY/MM/DD/filename.md
# populate blog contents

docker build -t ltblog:latest .
# run the server
docker run -d --name ltblog -it --rm -p 8000:8000 -v $(pwd):/app ltblog:latest
# generate the static site
docker exec ltblog python build.py

Now you can visit http://localhost:8000 in your web browser to view your new blog post.

You can make edits to you post and run docker exec ltblog python build again to see the changes.
