Events are stored in the app/_data folder. To add an event, edit the events.csv.

When updating the csv of events:

• Use yyyy-mm-dd format for date. The year must be 4 digits (may need to adjust display settings in Microsoft Excel). Otherwise, 15 may be interpreted as 1915 instead of 2015.

new Date("9/15/15")
Date 1915-09-15T04:00:00.000Z
new Date("9/15/2015")
Date 2015-09-15T04:00:00.000Z

• Fields can be left blank if data does not exist or is TBD

• Include the two letter country code to include the correct flag

To set up the development environment for this website, you'll need to install the following on your system:

• Node and npm
• Ruby and Bundler, preferably through something like rvm
• Gulp ( $ npm install -g gulp )

After these basic requirements are met, run the following commands in the website's folder:

$ npm install

Will also run bundle install

$ gulp serve

Compiles the compass files, javascripts, and launches the server making the site available at http://localhost:3000/ The system will watch files and execute tasks whenever one of them changes. The site will automatically refresh since it is bundled with livereload.

The _config-dev.yml file will be loaded alongside _config.yml.

Clean the compiled site. I.e. the _site folder

$ gulp clean

Compile the compass files, javascripts, and builds the jekyll site using _config-dev.yml. Use this instead of gulp serve if you don't want to watch.

$ gulp

Compiles the site loading the _config-stage.yml alongside _config.yml. The javascript files will be minified.

$ gulp stage

Compiles the site loading the _config-prod.yml alongside _config.yml. The javascript files will be minified.

$ gulp prod
