The Catalog
This is a simple Javascript catalog for driving the https://leap.tardate.com site.
It is a simple bootstrap/datatables page with the main entry point in index.html.
Catalog data is loaded from catalog.json, which is consolidated from .catalog_metadata I’ve added to each project.
The make.py utility script is used to maintain the catalog:
catalog/make.py rebuild # builds the catalog from catalog metadata
Jekyll Generation
The site now uses Jekyll for page generation.
Atom Feed
The make.py script also generates the atom.xml feed file. This is a best-effort conversion to an atom feed. Currently includes all projects in the feed.
Hosting
I’m using Netlify to run the catalog site directly from the GitHub repository.
Note: I previously used GitHub Pages, but switched to Netlify as that allows me to use free SSL certificates from LetsEncrypt.
Running Locally
The site is generated with Jekyll. To run locally:
bundle exec jekyll serve
The generated site will be in the _site folder. This can be trashed after testing (it is not checked into the repo).
