Re: Redesign of the Thrift siteThe process here is very straightforward and similar to the old manner.
1/ svn checkout of the site folder 2/ modify php/css files in the dynathrift folder to change the content 3/ ./__publish.php -o ../publish step 3 is eqiuavlent to the forest ant compilation step. the __publish.php script has comment blocks explaining what it's doing. that'll dump the static files into the regular publish folder. from there on out it's the same as the old way. just svn ci the changes to the repo and then go svn up the shared folder on minotaur. i'll also document this in a README that i'll check in with the web code. ----- Original Message ----- From: Upayavira To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, September 01, 2008 10:21 AM Subject: Re: Redesign of the Thrift site On Fri, 2008-08-29 at 18:07 -0700, Mark Slee wrote: > Hi all, > > I've just finished a redesign of the Thrift incubator website that I'd > like to publish to our Apache page.

The site itself looks fine - I'd just like to understand how folks will update the site (whatever we use, it has to be accessible). Can you explain the process by which a-n-other committer would make a trivial change to the site? Thanks, Upayavira
