Build failing

[HarryMcCarney]

Trying to run the site locally to investigate how blog posts could be created.

cloned repo and ran Fornax build

got multiple warnings/errors and the tutorials aren't generated. Error message below.

the blog post generator uses fsdocs as a dotnet cli, so that not being installed might be the issue https://github.com/fslaborg/fslaborg.github.io/blob/e7e9f9c9040b2324ff817854f6606ecf64a79a8e/src/generators/tutorials.fsx#L97-L102

also, this site needs both .net 3.1 and 5.

However, i am currently rebuilding the website and blog from the ground up, so i wouldn't bother too much with the site in it's current state. The updated version will generate posts from notebooks directly instead of scripts.

It might be worth just taking a look at fsdocs itself, which is the tool used here anyways. it creates html sites from scripts: https://github.com/fsprojects/FSharp.Formatting. You can also take a look at https://plotly.net docs, which are generated with this tool as well

@HarryMcCarney I have the new blog up and running in principle. It converts F# notebooks to html. I still have to get the general styling done, but you can have a look at the general workflows here and the site in it's current state here: https://fslab.org/blog

Thanks @kMutagene, a neat approach! Struggling to get it running. Installed anaconda and after some issues with PATH variables got as far as fornax watch. Am using .Net 6.0.401

[kMutagene]

du you by any chance check out as-is via git (meaning there are still unix new line characters in the file instead of windows CRLF?)

[kMutagene]

because a blank clone should always work, as it does work on a blank ci machine

[kMutagene]

@HarryMcCarney This should be fixed for you in the latest version, as i added line ending normalization before parsing posts, if the issue persist, can you please open a new issue over at https://github.com/fslaborg/blog ?

Hi @kMutagene, I wanted to test the CRLF issue this morning but you beat me to it. I have cloned the new repo and it runs without problems on my machine. Thanks!
