dcrweb

This is the code for the decred.org website.

Development

1. Install prerequisites:

   • Hugo
   • Docker

2. Clone repo

   git clone https://github.com/decred/dcrweb
   cd dcrweb

3. Start development web server:

   bin/watch.sh

You should now be able to access the site at http://localhost:1313

Editing content

dcrweb is built using the Hugo site generator framework. The most frequently updated content sections live in the below locations:

Section	File	Comments
Press releases	src/content/press/*.md	When adding a new release, please follow the file naming convention in the directory.
Press coverage	src/data/press/coverage.yml
Download links	src/data/wallets/links.yml
Current release	src/data/wallets/current_release.yml	The current release as it appears in the footer
Contributors	src/data/contributors/*.yml	Avatar images: src/assets/images/contributors
Community channels	src/data/community/channels.yml	Logo images: src/assets/images/community
Exchanges	src/data/exchanges.*.yml	Logo images: src/assets/images/exchanges
History	src/data/history/*.yml	Edit timeline and stats section.

The other sections live under src/layouts. These pages are implemented as Hugo templates and are localized. The message catalogs can be found in src/i18n, when making changes in the templates, you'll want to keep the strings in the catalogs, please follow the naming scheme in the existing templates.

Testing

Run the HTML validator to make sure all of the generated files are syntactically correct. (The script depends on yarn and docker being installed.)

yarn && yarn test

Localization

The below commands must be run when either the content changes or there are updates in the translations in Transifex. You'll first need to install the Transifex client.

Importing new translations and content updates

When translations are added/updated in Transifex, pull the updates:

bin/transifex_pull.sh

When you run this for the first time, you'll be asked to log in with your Transifex username/password.

To push the changes to staging:

git commit -m'Translation update'
git push origin

Updating the message catalog

When the master content changes in the HTML files, you'll need to re-generate the message catalog and push it to Transifex so that translators can update the localized message catalogs:

bin/transifex_push.sh

Deployment

A Docker configuration is included for building the deployable images of dcrweb.
