Apache OpenWhisk Website

Apache OpenWhisk is a cloud-first distributed event-based programming service. It provides a programming model to upload event handlers to a cloud service, and register the handlers to respond to various events.

Quickstart for Local Development

Install Prerequisites

• Download and install Node.js: see https://nodejs.org/
• Download and install Ruby: see https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/

# Verify Node and Node Package Manager are installed
node -v
npm -v

# Verify Ruby is installed
ruby -v

# Install Jekyll, which is used to build the site
gem install jekyll bundler

Clone and start development server

# Clone the repository (and correct branch).
git clone https://github.com/apache/openwhisk-website.git

# Move into the cloned repo.
cd openwhisk-website

# Install gem dependencies
bundle install

# Start the development server default location http://127.0.0.1:4000
bin/develop

Validate HTML, links and more

To make sure nothing is broken on the website we use html-proofer, it checks to see if any of the links 404s, if the HTML is valid, images have alt tags and more.

Run the following command to run html-proofer:

bin/test

How to Build Jekyll to Output Static Files

If you need to generate static files, run the following:

# NOTE: Make sure you have already cloned the repository and moved into the directory.

# Build the site.
bundle exec jekyll build

This will build static files to a directory called _site/ in the project root. This can be used for manual deployment to a static server or with build tools like Jenkins.

Updating CSS files

Some browsers will continue to use cached copies of ".css" files even though the styles/content in the files has changed significantly. If you make any changes that affect layout, you SHOULD increment the (artificial) version number on the query parameter on the <link> within default.html which will cause (force) some clients to pull down a new main.css file (and all the cascading CSS imports as well):

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ site.github.url }}/css/main-v1.css?v=1.12">

for example, update "?v1.12" to "?v1.13".

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ site.github.url }}/css/main-v1.css?v=1.13">

Troubleshooting

If you get an error 'bundle: command not found' attempting to build the site, you may need to manually install the 'bundler' package:

 gem install bundler

Jenkins build

The OpenWhisk.org website is automatically built and published to Apache at: https://openwhisk.apache.org/

Current Jenkins build status can be checked here: https://builds.apache.org/job/OpenWhisk-website/
