Usage

General usage

The best way to update your profile is via creating a pull request. You will need to fork this repo, make modifications in your fork, and then make a pull request to this repo. You can find details on how to do this on many GitHub tutorial pages.

Profile update

subject to change

In order to update your profile, create _assets/member_profile/yourname folder containing picture.png and profile.md. You can use standard Markdown and LaTeX-like syntax in profile.md. Check out the sample iguana/profile.md.

Once you are done creating the folder, put \insertprofile{yourname}{Your Name}{yoururl}{your (at) email.address} inside members.md. yoururl is the url of your personal website, or the path to your personal page within the group website, as described below.

Creating your own page

This step is optional. If you do not have a personal website, you can host a mini personal website within the group website. Create /members/yourname/index.md. And start populating it with Markdown. You can write whatever you want there, but the following macros will give you a good default landing page:

\insertprofilepage{yourname}{Your Name}{ your (at) email.edu }

# Publications

\publist{https://arxiv.org/a/your_author_profile.html} # use your arXiv author profile
\publistarxivsearch{https://arxiv.org/a/your_searchresult.html} # use your arXiv author profile

yoururl of the resulting page is /members/yourname/.

How to launch a Franklin server

1. Install most recent version of Julia.
2. Navigate to the repository and launch julia.
3. In the REPL, do the following

julia> using Pkg
julia> Pkg.activate() # make sure it activates to "groupwebsite"
julia> Pkg.instantiate()
julia> using Franklin
julia> serve(port=8888) # choose a port number you like

This launches a server at the specified port. You can portforward it and access the server via your browser. The server live-updates its content, so you can edit files and see changes in real time.

If you introduce parsing errors, the server stops running. You can call serve() again after fixing the errors.
