⚠️ DO NOT MAKE CHANGES TO THE creativecommons/creativecommons.github.io REPO DIRECTLY.
This site is built using Lektor. All changes to opensource.creativecommons.org (creativecommons.github.io) must be made here and deployed via lektor (see Deployment, below).
The Creative Commons team is committed to fostering a welcoming community. This project and all other Creative Commons open source projects are governed by our Code of Conduct. Please report unacceptable behavior to conduct@creativecommons.org per our reporting guidelines.
See CONTRIBUTING.md

For information on learning and installing the prerequisite technologies for this project, please see Foundational technologies — Creative Commons Open Source.
Make sure you have:
To install these, execute the following commands:
- macOS:
- Install Homebrew
- Install pipenv and node:
brew install pipenv node
- GNU/Linux:
- Installing Pipenv
- Install Node.js (or see the detailed instructions)
- Update packges:
sudo apt update
- Install npm:
sudo apt install npm
- Clone this repository.
- Open your command line interface change directories to the repository root directory.
- Create a Python virtual environment
- check your python version
python --version
```
- if it is python 3.11, go to step 4
- if not run this command to create a python virtual environment . Change 3.12 with your python version
```
pipenv --python 3.12
```
4. install the requirements for this project:
```
pipenv install --dev
```
### pipenv Troubleshooting
`pipenv` doesn't always provide the best error messages ([Provide better error
message if the project’s virtual environment is broken][pipenverror]). If all
else fails, try removing the virtual environment and reinstalling:
1. Remove virtual environment:
```
pipenv --rm
```
2. Install virtual environment (including dev packages):
```
pipenv install --dev
```

## Development
- Start the Lektor development server:
```
pipenv run lektor server -f webpack
```
- You will be able to see the website at [`127.0.0.1:5000/`][local5000].
- The Lektor server will rebuild the site every time you change any content.
[local5000]: http://127.0.0.1:5000/
### Troubleshooting Possible Errors
- Should you get series of type errors that looks something like `npm ERR!
typeerror Error: Missing required argument #1`, after running `pipenv run
lektor server -f webpack`, this is most likely due to running an older
version of Node.js.
As stated above in [Prerequisites](#prerequisites), you should be running
Node.js version 12+.
- Should you get an `OSError: [Errno 28] inotify watch limit reached` after
running any command, this means that your system file watcher is running out
of allotted handles, usually because the workspace is large and contains many
files.
The solution is to run:
```
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
```
This increases your `inotify` watch limit (for the session) to 524288, which
is the maximum value and is also enough to allow the setup go through. You
can learn more about file watchers [from this blog post][inotifyblog]
or [from the VS Code documentation][watchchanges].

## Deployment
We have continuous deployment set up. To deploy, push your code to the `main`
branch (or make a pull request against the `main` branch. GitHub Actions
builds and deploys the site whenever it detects new commits on the `main`
branch.
The GitHub Actions configuration is located at
[`.github/workflows/lektor-build-deploy.yml`][lektorbuild].
[lektorbuild]: .github/workflows/lektor-build-deploy.yml
### Manual Deployment
> :warning: **For reference only, you should not need to not do this.**
When you are ready to deploy a new version of the site, run `lektor deploy`
(assuming you have your GitHub SSH key already set up and you have access to
the [creativecommons/creativecommons.github.io][ccghiorepo] repository). That's
it, it's live on production!
## Project Structure
Here's how the code is structured in the top level of the repository:
- **`assets`**: This directory contains the JavaScript and CSS files for the
project built via webpack. Most of the JavaScript and CSS is third-party code
and loaded via CDN so this is pretty empty.
- **`content`**: The content of the site lives here. [Here's an explanation of
how content works in Lektor][lektorcontent]. This is probably what you'll be
modifying most often.
- **`models`**: [All content in Lektor is associated with data
models][lektormodels] to define their schema. Currently, we only use the
default `page` model that ships with Lektor.
- **`templates`**: This is where the [Jinja2][jinja2] templates that render
content are stored. See the [Lektor template documentation][lektortemplate]
for more information.
- **`webpack`**: This is where all the webpack config files as well as Sass and
JavaScript files for the project resides. The JavaScript and Sass files are
compiled and saved in the assets folder during lektor build process.
