This is a white label multi-tenant platform for us and our code school friends to use to manage our curricula. It's built on top of Hugo and Netlify CMS.
The platform, layout, styles and components are all developed in the Hugo module /common-theme.
The content is developed in the Hugo module /common-content. This content is all headless blocks. It doesn't create any pages on your site unless you call it somewhere.
Multi-language support is provided by Hugo's i18n support.
Each org builds its own Hugo site that uses the common theme and content modules, and then makes any customisations they need and deploys it wherever they want.
To develop a specific site, cd into the relevant sub-directory and follow the instructions in the README.md file.
- In the root of this repo, run:
hugo new site org-<your-org-name>
cd org-<your-org-name>- Initialise your new site as a hugo module, as only modules can import modules:
hugo mod init github.com/CodeYourFuture/curriculum/org-<your-org-name>Then add the common theme and content modules as hugo modules to hugo.toml:
[module]
[[module.imports]]
path = "github.com/CodeYourFuture/curriculum/common-theme"
[[module.imports]]
path = "github.com/CodeYourFuture/curriculum/common-content"
[[module.imports.mounts]]
source = "en"
target = "content"Look at the org-cyf and org-mcb examples for more details and options.
To customise the css, make a dir assets/custom-theme and throw any scss in there. It will be compiled and added last.
To add site logo/s, make a dir and add svgs to assets/custom-images/site-logo/. They will be added to the site header.
Add your content to content/ and customise the site config in config.toml. Please contribute any improvements you make back to the common theme and content modules.
For each module you import, add a replace directive to your go.mod file - if you forget to do this, you won't get live updates to your site when shared content changes. CI will remind you if you forget.
Check org-cyf/README.md on how to set up your local environment. Once that is done you can cd into the site you wish to develop, and run npm run start:dev to get a live preview.
