Dave Morriss b4448caf16 Fixing 'absolute_url' 
site-generator:

    Added all the modules that the script and the templates use to make
    it explicit what is required.

templates/shared-utils.tpl.html:

    Added a new TT² macro called 'absolute_url' which takes two
    arguments, the base and  the path or relative URL. It's fairly
    primitive but seems to work.

templates/content-about.tpl.html,
templates/content-recording.tpl.html,
templates/content-request_a_slot.tpl.html,
templates/content-requested_topics.tpl.html,
templates/page.tpl.html:

    All calls to 'absolute_url' changed to use two arguments, and the
    link definitions adjusted to match this change.

hpr_generator

Static web page generator for the Hacker Public Radio website.

Installation

  • Clone or download this repository
  • With SQLite
    • Create the sqlite3 database from the hpr.sql MySQL dump file available on hackerpublicradio.org. The default name for the database file is "hpr.db" and should be located in the root of the project directory. The name and location can be set in the site.cfg file.
    • An "update-hpr.sh" helper script is available in the utils directory. This script will download the hpr.sql file, convert it to the SQLite hpr.db file, and regenerate the website using the site-generator.
      1. cd into the root of the project directory
      2. Run ./utils/update-hpr.sh
    • SQLite v3.8.3 or greater is recommended. CTE WITH clauses are used in some template queries. Must convert WITH clauses to sub-queries when using earlier versions of SQLite.
  • With MySQL
    • Create database hpr_hpr in the MySQL server from HPR dump file.
      • sudo mysql --host=localhost < hpr.sql
    • Create a user that will be used by the site-generator.
      • Suggested username: hpr-generator
      • CREATE USER 'hpr-generator'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<password>';
    • Limit the user's privileges to EXECUTE and SELECT
      • GRANT SELECT ON hpr_hpr.* TO 'hpr-generator'@'localhost';
      • GRANT EXECUTE ON `hpr_hpr`.* TO 'hpr-generator'@'localhost';
  • Install the needed Perl modules using preferred method (distribution packages, CPAN, etc.)
    • GetOpt
    • Pod::Usage
    • Config::Std
    • Template
    • Template::Plugin::File
    • Template::Plugin::DBI
    • DBI
    • Tie::DBI
    • DBD::SQLite or DBD:mysql
    • Date::Calc
  • See the Getting Started tutorial (GETTING_STARTED.md) for more details on installing the HPR generator.
