This is the source code for the ASF Community Development PMC website, hosted at community.apache.org

To get in touch with that PMC please use the dev@community.apache.org mailing list.

The events.apache.org website is also managed by the Community Development PMC but managed in the comdev-events-site repository.

Changes to the main or preview/* branches of this repository trigger the comdev-site Jenkins Job, which generates and pushes the website content.

There's currently (April 2020) a lag of about ten minutes for the corresponding Jenkins job to start, if you commit directly to the GitHub repository, but you can also start the job manually if you have the required Jenkins access rights.

For the main branch, the generated content is pushed to the asf-site branch, and the ASF's gitpubsub mechanism then synchronizes that content to the live community.apache.org website, usually within a few seconds.

Branches named preview/<name> are staged automatically, a branch named preview/0421b for example is staged at https://community-0421b.staged.apache.org/ .

More details about the publication process can be found in the ASF Documentation about Project sites. If for some reason this process fails, you can use the self-service page from ASF Infra to trigger a resync of the git repo.

The website uses Hugo as static website generator, see the Hugo website for more information and for how to install and run it if needed.

Other Apache websites that are built with Hugo should be listed by this GitHub query for the 'hugo' tag.

You need a recent version of hugo, to find out which one is used to deploy this site look at the Jenkins build output, linked above.

To generate the static website, execute hugo to generate the website under target/content and execute npx -y pagefind --site target/content to index the content for Pagefind (the search bar on the website).

During development, it may be useful to run an incremental build. For this to work, execute hugo server -D -d /tmp/comdev-generated-site to continuously (re)generate and serve the website on localhost:1313 (-D means include draft pages). In another terminal, execute npx -y pagefind --site /tmp/comdev-generated-site to index the site content for Pagefind (the search bar on the website).
