We’ve rebuilt Dev.Opera as a static site, powered by Jekyll, Sass, and Grunt. In this repository, you find all the source files and content to build the site, make improvements, and submit new articles.
- Install Bundler by running
gem install bundleron the command line. - Download and install Node.js or io.js with the default installer options.
- Clone the project by running
git clone git@github.com:operasoftware/devopera.gitandcdinto thedevoperafolder. - Install Jekyll, Sass, and all needed gems by running
bundle install. - Run
npm installinside thedevoperafolder. - Run
npm install bower -gto install Bower globally. - Run
bower install. - Run
npm install grunt-cli -gto install Grunt globally.
Please install EditorConfig plugin for your editor to keep code style declared in the .editorconfig file.
If you’ve set up all the above at some point in the past, and want to update your installation, these are the steps to follow:
- Run
sudo gem updateto install the latest Ruby gems. - Run
npm install&bower installinside thedevoperafolder.
To start developing Dev.Opera run grunt, it would take up to 1 minute to:
- Build site in a limited mode with only latest 150 posts.
- Start local server on
http://0.0.0.0:33310address. - Open it in your default browser.
- Launch a
watchtask for all files.
So now every time you change project files, Dev.Opera will be rebuilt and you browser will update. For HTML and Markdown files it will still take up to 1 minute, for CSS it will be much faster (please request the same fast track for JS or anything else if needed).
To build a complete Dev.Opera, run grunt build: it will take a while to build the full site with all posts included in the _site folder. To deploy (sync build with remote server), run grunt deploy.
- All instructions are for Unix (OS X, Linux, etc.) because Jekyll is not compatible with Windows.
- You may require write access for all commands mentioned above. Type
sudo, space and command if needed.
