RiC Resource List

Usage

Can be browsed as a website. Additions and edits can be made via the website or by making a pull request changing the master document at master-document/resource_list.csv.

Architecture

Has the following components.

  • A static website, consisting of the HTML files in this repository along with the CSS file. No Javascript is used.
  • A master document master-document/resource_list.csv from which the static website is generated.
  • A very lightweight backend living in the cloud, fired as needed (function-as-a-service), functioning as a reverse proxy towards GitHub for adding or editing resources via the website.
  • Three GitHub Actions. Two are triggered by the backend upon a resource addition or edit; they create a pull request to update the master document. One re-generates the site upon the merging of such a pull request.

Guide to the scripts:

  • Re-generation of the site is by means of scripts/generate_site.sh, which calls scripts/resource_list.py numerous times. The latter is the heart of the tool.
  • The on-demand function which serves as the backend/reverse proxy in the cloud is defined by scripts/handle_submission.py.
  • The handling of the form submissions from the website for adding or editing a resource is carried out in scripts/update_master_document.py.

Deployment

To make any changes to the GitHub Actions, one can simply edit the relevant files in scripts and make a pull request.

Deployment of the cloud backend is covered in the README file in scripts.
