  1. Install a full Ruby development environment.
  2. Create a local clone of the website:
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/gtk-web.git
  1. Change into the gtk-web directory

Pipeline

The pipeline used by the website is the top-level component of continuous integration, delivery, and deployment.

The pipeline defined by the GTK.org uses the Ruby2.5 image. The pipeline consists of a script that runs before the site is tested/deployed. The script that runs before the test/deployment of the website basically installs all the gem/npm dependencies, fetches the API data regarding the GTK from its gitlab instance and then structurizes the website before testing/deploying.

test stage is performed on all branches but master. deploy stage on the other hand is performed only on master branch.
