parent | Rename `articles` to `pages`. (diff) |
Simplify content app.
Rather than having two views for the base page and all other pages, all
pages now use the same view.
The view context handler is simplified to take advantage of pathlib
features.
The markdown folder is now /content/resources/* rather than
/content/resources/content/*, as the latter is unnecessary nesting.

There can other peoples give their opinion about your idea. Even better, open issue in site repository first, then PyDis staff can see it and approve/decline this idea. +It's good idea to wait for staff decision before starting to write guide to avoid case when you write a long long article, but then this don't get approved. + +To start with contributing, you should read [how to contribute to site](https://pythondiscord.com/pages/contributing/site/). +You should also read our [Git workflow](https://pythondiscord.com/pages/contributing/working-with-git/), because you need to push your guide to GitHub. + +## Creating a File +All articles is located at `site` repository, in `pydis_site/apps/content/resources/content`. Under this is root level articles (.md files) and categories (directories). Learn more about categories in [categories section](#categories). + +When you are writing guides, then these are located under `guides` category. + +At this point, you will need your article name for filename. Replace all your article name spaces with `-` and make all lowercase. Save this as `.md` (Markdown) file. This name (without Markdown extension) is path of article in URL. + +## Markdown Metadata +Article files have some required metadata, like title, description, relevant pages. Metadata is first thing in file, YAML-like key-value pairs: + +```md +--- +title: My Article +short_description: This is my short description. +relevant_links: url1,url2,url3 +relevant_link_values: Text for url1,Text for url2,Text for url3 +--- + +Here comes content of article... +``` + +You can read more about Markdown metadata [here](https://github.com/trentm/python-markdown2/wiki/metadata). + +### Fields +- **Name:** Easily-readable name for your article. +- **Short Description:** Small, 1-2 line description that describe what your article explain. +- **Relevant Links and Values:** URLs and values is under different fields, separated with comma. +- **Icon class:** `icon_class` field have one of the favicons classes. Default is `fab`. +- **Icon:** `icon` field have favicon name. Default `fa-python`. + +## Content +For content, mostly you can use standard markdown, but there is a few addition that is available. + +### IDs for quick jumps +System automatically assign IDs to headers, so like this header will get ID `ids-for-quick-jumps`. + +### Tables +Tables like in GitHub is supported too: + +| This is header | This is too header | +| -------------- | ------------------ | +| My item | My item too | + +### Codeblocks +Also this system supports codeblocks and provides syntax highlighting with `highlight.js`. +To activate syntax highlight, just put language directly after starting backticks. + +```py +import os + +path = os.path.join("foo", "bar") +``` + +## Categories +To have some systematic sorting of guides, site support guides categories. Currently this system support only 1 level of categories. Categories live at `site` repo in `pydis_site/apps/content/resources/content` subdirectories. Directory name is path of category in URL. Inside category directory, there is 1 file required: `_info.yml`. This file need 2 key-value pairs defined: + +```yml +name: Category name +description: Category description +``` + +Then all Markdown files in this folder will be under this category. |
