Autobuild lessons - Githubissues

andylolz commented 9 years ago

The highlights:

A few minor changes to get lesson_format running on heroku (e.g. git ops are now over https; we use local binaries for zipping and pandoc-ing if they’re present.) Everything should still work locally, but do test that.
build.py is refactored so it can be called more easily from an external script.
autobuild.py has been added, which calls build.py but also does various git and github operations. This is what @codeclubrobot runs.
if a pdf_generator is specified when calling build.py, all lesson PDFs will be auto-generated. The ones referenced in the manifests will be ignored.

Fixes #45.

This code is currently running nightly on heroku, and is generating pull requests against my fork. Here’s an example: andylolz/CodeClubUK-Projects#3

I've just tested this locally, and it works perfectly!

andylolz commented 9 years ago

That’s great! Thanks for testing.

andylolz commented 9 years ago

Well if everything is still working with this in (works for me too) it seems fine to merge.

yep -- and it also means we'll have PDFs online of the Python projects and the new Scratch projects I'll be adding soon! :+1:
