automated data updates w/ travis #35

Open 7yl4r opened 6 years ago

7yl4r commented 6 years ago

Previous plans for data updates involved cronjobs but Ben has shown me some awesome new features in Travis CI which will basically allow using Travis as a cron. Here is how it works:

  1. set up job in Travis to pull RVC & CREMP from Axiom mbon.ioos.us ERDDAP csv data
  2. process the data (need to look back at @mhepner90 's scripts) on Travis
  3. push the data to either 3a) github as updated csv or 3b) another ERDDAP server
  4. if 3b) modify csv links to pull from ERDDAP
  5. Travis job also needs to rebuild site using infographiq

progress! The site is building automatically now. The next (big) step is to pull & process the data.
