This is the site for BSides Goldie (BSides Gold Coast) that is deployed via GitHub Actions to GitHub Pages.

It's a Jekyll site.

I've made an effort to start extracting some year-over-year changes into site config variables to ensure a consistent messaging across the website. But some things in our current site are not conducive to this. A rough outline of steps needed for year-over-year is as follows:

• Update all values in _config.yml for the appropriate values for your event.
• Update _includes/map.html to point to your address (if you choose to use the map, otherwise we can control showing map with a boolean)
• Update index.html#citystate with the city/state of your event. Even if you're not providing the whole address online, you should provide city and state to help people estimate their plans.
• Update venue.html to include whatever level of detail you are comfortable with for your venue. Ensure you remove the previous host's details (e.g. if it says Google and you are not representing Google, make sure you change this)
• Change the logo for your event's logo. This should typically change every year. Reach out to Paul if you want contact info for the designer of a previous year.
• If you wish to publish a schedule, use schedule.html to do so

It is unlikely that, as a host, you will need to change any content on about.html, code.html, or guidelines.html. These are typically pretty static year over year.

Changes made to this repo are made live immediately.

Ideally you will make changes locally, test that it looks fine, then submit a Pull Request and get the changes merged into master.

To view the site locally you'll need to render it with Jekyll, a Ruby static site generator.

Here are some instruction from GitHub Pages on how to do this.

This setup assumes you're using macOS with no Ruby environment:

1. brew install ruby

2. Append the following line to your ~/.bash_profile (or whatever is appropriate for your shell). Make sure the Ruby major and minor versions are correct so the path resolves. If you're not sure, bundle will tell you what the path should be.

export PATH=/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:~/.gem/ruby/2.6.0/bin:$PATH

3. gem install --user-install bundler

4. Clone this repository, and inside the repo run bundle install

Once you have Jekyll installed via bundler, you should be able to run a local Jekyll server and access it at localhost:4000:

bundle exec jekyll serve
