This repository hosts the main AmsterdamPHP Website. The purpose of this website is to showcase the User Group, from the work that is done and its results to the sponsors who allow us to make this happen and the people who contribute to allow us to accomplish so much.
Its a community project, lead by the organisers and executed by the members. All communication for this project is done either in the issues page, or in the enablers mailing list.
We want this to be a community project we all rally behind and keep up to date, but we also want it to be a learning experience. This means experimenting with new technologies and trying out things we may not have time to use in everyday life.
Note: You need a meetup.com API key (https://secure.meetup.com/meetup_api/key/) and enough permissions to get the attendees of a meetup. That requires at least the 'Event organiser' role.
To make it easier for you to contribute and use all the new and shiny, we have setup a Vagrant box. It is provisioned with Ansible, so you need to have a few extra things, these are the steps
vagrant up
vagrant.amsterdamphp.dev
to 192.168.33.10
meetup_key
value to your meetup.com API keygroup_urlname
to amsterdamphpyoutube_key
to your YouTube API keyyoutube_playlist
to PLV7ClNW8PgyAPtbJ2q12BbDmHCXBjQAfcnote: This box has a always running process that will constantly compile the less files into CSS while you work, you do not need to run it yourself.
To make building assets easy grunt is installed on the Vagrant box. If grunt is new for you be sure to read the getting started guide on their site. Using grunt is easy. Just running grunt
will build all the assets. While grunt watch
waits until you change something in the asset sources and rebuilds them when that occurs. When you like to know more about what happens when you run grunt
run it with -v
like this grunt -v
to display verbose output.
Like I said, learning experience, we want to pack some new stuff in here for us to experiment with, this may be familiar to some and new to others, that's where you come in to teach others.
Any more suggestions?
