Jekyll-based website for Stellarium project
Each page has a stub .md file in the top-level directory which must only include a corresponding layout from the _layouts directory. For example for the screenshots page, we need a /screenshots.md and a /_layouts/screenshots.html files.
Use the regular Jekyll way to add posts, as described there. An Atom feed is available at /feed.xml adress.
We use a hack allowing to get Jekyll to perform static translation of the website using gettext .po and .pot files. For this to work, you need to:
- add the following at the top of your html file:
{% include i18n.html %} - mark strings to translate in the .html file this way:
{% include tr.html s="String to translate" %}
The po/stellarium-website.pot file can be re-generated by running the utils/update_pot.py script.
Once translation is done, copy the *.po files into the po/ directory and run the utils/update_po.py script.
Before pushing changes on github, which immediately reflects on the public page, it is better to test the changes locally:
