set up server site building

[crmackay]

• look at github webhooks (https://developer.github.com/webhooks/)
• install hugo binary (no dependencies) on Bib...
• write script to receive webhook payload --> git pull --> build site --> move to proper directory

[purcaro]

looks like several python options exist for github webhooks:

BIB only has python 2.6, and it looks like pelican doesn't like it (I get syntax errors when trying to import pelican)

setup a new user on BIB and install a virtualenv?

[crmackay]

Are there ports available on bib (eg 8080) or do we need todo some sort of
reverse proxying via apache?

Of course it only has 2.6....

Not sure what the best way is on that server (I'm sure there's all sorts of
stuff all over the place).

We would need 2.7, pelican and it's dependencies all pointing to each
other.

Env might work but if we have to use apache for the web hook it needs to be
active for the apache user no?

Maybe just have an updated python2.7.9 interpreter somewhere, directly call
it in the main pelican script, and put the updated dependencies nearby (or
append the python path)?

--this is all very hackish because I don't know any better. Where's
docker?...

We'll setup docker on bib7 for all the bootstrappers sebsite stuff, and
then setup proxy pass on bib

ok cool.

I'll just get going on making the "content" parts of the sites ( the add-blog branch) ...

the automatically git pulling and building feature will be nice to have so we can just proofread drafts (via pull requests) commit them and they auto build and deploy, but if we can't do that right away, it's easy enough for us to just build the static site and pull it onto bib every so often...
