Hi Andrew
I think you were talking to me, Jason.
I am leaving the questions we talked in the morning.
*Question#1* Are we putting all of this into the bone101 repo at
GitHub - beagleboard/bone101: Web-hosted documentation on BeagleBone enhanced with BoneScript and live-running tutorials?
*My Answer:* The answer should be yes. Sometimes user delete code from
their accounts and the doc is going to look ugly, This way we can hava a
backup
This is what I suggest. We could be doing it all on a live site, but I
think just managing it in a git repo is better for quality control and
security.
*Question#2:* Are people using git pull requests to ask for their project
to be included in the main repository?
*My Answer: *It will be a good idea, I am just a normal git user what
will you recommend in this?
I believe walking users through this process will be the best way to go:
* Help user make local changes on a clone of
GitHub - beagleboard/bone101: Web-hosted documentation on BeagleBone enhanced with BoneScript and live-running tutorials in /var/lib/cloud9 as it will ship on
BeagleBone's running the new Debian image. (This will be the main part of
the application you create.)
* Help user setup github.com account, push their local changes to that
account and create a pull request to merge their changes into the main
repository. (This will still be guided by the application you create.)
* Review and merge change requests from users into the main
GitHub - beagleboard/bone101: Web-hosted documentation on BeagleBone enhanced with BoneScript and live-running tutorials repository. (This will be done
manually by me and community review.)
* Push a copy of that repository to the live
BoneScript - BeagleBoard pages for other people to see.
(Another manual step by me.)
*Question#3:* Do projects become live visible to the world immediately
when a user posts them?
*My Answer: *Need to confirm this info with instructor
I suggest no.
*Question#4:* Are we putting it straight up on the live beagleboard.orgwebsite?
*My Answer:*Need to confirm this info with instructor. I am guessing
beagle board is going to provide a database connection for saving the
information and a server for testing? If not I have to look for a free
solution while the development.
The HTML files in the git repository are the database. We can add templates
and other features to make it more easy to manage. I'd like to avoid having
a real database. Eventually, the content should go live to
beagleboard.orgwhen it is approved rather than going live immediately.
It would be great
to provide a mechanism to enable users to host it on something like
github.io as coming from their own account. I will look into this.
*Question#5: *If there is going to be need a special person who approves
documentation, I need to created a user hierarchy for this. *My Answer: *Could
you provide the complete hierarchy. Right now I am including the Admin
user, Approve user, Normal user. What other special roles will this users
have?
Just using github.com for user management seems far simpler to me.
*Question#6: Special frameworks?*
My Answer: I am planning to work with nodejs. With the express framework.
(I am not a node developer, but I have start my learning process, and I am
quite impress with what I can do)The bonescript library.
BoneScript includes a webserver using express and this will be used to host
the content from the board:
I bought this template last year for a college project.
Gebo Admin Responsive Template by tzd | ThemeForest . Is
there any problem is I used it?
Depends on what the license is. We don't want any non-free content.
