How to locally deploy and test this website

This chapter summarizes all the steps to locally deploy and test this jekill-based GitHub Pages website with Ubuntu.

  • Clone this repository (e.g. with GitHub Desktop)

  • Not strictly necessary: install Snap:

    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install snapd
  • Install Jekyll and related prerequisites:

    cd
    
    # Test that prerequisites are already installed (each command shows how to install the related prerequisite if missing)
    ruby -v # if missing, install it with e.g.: snap install ruby --classic
    gem -v
    cc -v
    g++ -v
    make -v
    
    # Install Ruby
    sudo apt-get install ruby-full build-essential zlib1g-dev
    echo '# Install Ruby Gems to ~/gems' >> ~/.bashrc
    echo 'export GEM_HOME="$HOME/gems"' >> ~/.bashrc
    echo 'export PATH="$HOME/gems/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
    source ~/.bashrc
    
    # Install jekyll and bundler
    gem install jekyll bundler
  • Update the bundler version in Gemfile.lock. (Gemfile.lock is removed, so that Bundler will fetch all remote sources, resolve dependencies and install all needed gems. In general, this also fixes Dependabot security updates on vulnerabilities.)

    cd ~/Documents/GitHub/osm-carto-tutorials
    rm Gemfile.lock
    bundle install
    
    # Alternatively, you can run "bundle update --bundler"
  • Finally, serve the website

    bundle exec jekyll serve
