Erika's homework update #4

Open erika-b opened 2 years ago

erika-b commented 2 years ago

I'm having issues with the ContentDM cloning--the initial commit is running into an error during the "build with Jekyll" stage and none of the edits I do to _config.yml have helped. Exact error message is: /usr/local/bundle/gems/safe_yaml-1.0.5/lib/safe_yaml/load.rb:143:in `parse': (/github/workspace/./_config.yml): did not find expected key while parsing a block mapping at line 15 column 1 (Psych::SyntaxError)

My initial trial with the GH demo site/data worked really well!:

Sorry @erika-b I forgot to mention a few things about CB-CDM in class!

Because CB-CDM uses plugins, it can not be built using the automatic GitHub Pages build. Instead, you will have to add a GitHub Action to deploy it:

However... that doesn't seem to be the build error your repository is encountering right now! It looks like the "_config.yml" is corrupted some how-- I will take a look!

Hi Erika,

So, I think the problem is that when you uncommented the noindex variable at line 78 in the _config.yml file, you didn't get rid of the space there -- once I got rid of that, I was able to get the site to build.

Your CONTENDdm ul and collection-id are also not working though -- I think I got that -- the Colleciton Settings portion should be as follows:

##########

COLLECTION SETTINGS

#

Set the metadata for your collection (the name of the csv file in your

_data directory that describes the objects in your collection)

Use the filename of your CSV without the ".csv" extension! E.g.

_data/demo-metadata.csv --> "demo-metadata" metadata: tchp_metadata

contentdm collection name, matches collection ID used by CDM

cdm-collection-id: tacomacomm

CONTENTdm server url

cdm-url: https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/

You also have some extra lines in your metadata file that you should just delete (and the last record seems odd -- might look at that.

But if you fix the above in the config.yml file, you should get it to work. BUT you'll need to use a github action or third party to get it live on the web right now -- see evan's note and mine below.

We should also have mentioned this -- and Evan just did -- but CollectionBuilder-CONTENTdm does not work directly with GitHub pages. You can add a GitHub action to make it work: https://collectionbuilder.github.io/cb-docs/docs/deploy/actions/

Or you can also try just deploying it via a third party service. I'd recommend Render: https://collectionbuilder.github.io/cb-docs/docs/deploy/thirdparty/

If you go the Render route, which I think is easier, the static site address would be at a different url --- something like tchp_dev.onrender.com

GitHub actions are really powerful though, and it's not a terrible idea to start working with them.

Cheers! Devin

Woohoo thank you Evan and Devin! The documentation for github actions was super easy to follow and I have a site live. Now to clean up all that icky metadata 🤣
