This is the website of the pandanistas. A community of open source developer with the goal of increasing the diversity in pandas contributors, as well as the broader open source community
The website is built using Jekyll, a Ruby (yes, Ruby ;) static website generator supported by GitHub pages. To build the website locally you need to:
- Install ruby and ruby-dev
dnf install ruby ruby-develon Fedora, CentOS and RedHatapt-get install ruby-full ruby-devon Debian and Ubuntubrew install rubyon MacOS- More information about installing Ruby is here https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/.
- Install Jekyll with
gem install jekyll bundle. - Install dependencies with
bundle installin the project directory. - Run the server with
bundle exec jekyll serve. - Open the rendered website at http://localhost:4000/
Send a pull request adding a new file _chapters/<your-chapter-name>.md, where
<your-chapter-name> is the name of your chapter in ascii lowercase, and
separating words with underscore (e.g. london_pyton_sprints).
The content of the file has a header section with some fields (started and finished with
---), and the main description of the chapter afterwards.
We are using markdown files to store your data and they can contain either markdown tags for text formatting or pure html - it is up to you how to style your content.
The image that will represent your chapter should be in jpeg format. The size the content is optimized for is: 1920 x 600 px.
Please name it <your_chapter_name_1920x600px.jpg>.
This is the format:

Here you can add any information about your group. How it started, which are the goals,
what people can expect from it.
This is a good time to remind you, that no sort of discrimination (gender, religion,
age, sexual orientation...) is tolerated in the Python sprints (or in the Python
community in general). And as an organizer you must not allow any sort of harassment
in the events. Feel free to add in your chapter description to policies you have to
make sure the events are as diverse and welcoming as possible.

The content of your chapters description goes below ---.
Before sending an event, you need to have your chapter set up. See the section How to add your chapter for more information on how to do it.
You can also add a sponsor, to give credit to the companies/institutions supporting your group with a venue, pizzas, beers... And if you are sprinting in a project not in the system, you may also want to add it.
To create an event, you need to add a new file to the _posts directory with the file
name following the format YYYY-MM-DD-slug-of-the-event.md. Were YYYY-MM-DD is the
date of the event (this will be the date shown on site), and the slug of the event is the title in a format URL friendly
(only lowercase ascii letters and numbers, separating words with hyphens). For example
2017-12-31-django-bugfixing.md could be the name of a sprint "Django bugfixing"
happening on December 31st of 2017.
The content of the file has a header section with some fields (started and finished with ---), and the main description of the event afterwards. This is the format:
---
category: "<same-as-category-of-your-chapter>"
title: "Short summary of your event"
level: "Target audience of the event (e.g. Beginners, All levels, Advanced,...)"
time: "hh:mm"
rsvp_link: <url-of-your-meetup-eventbrite-etc-page>
project: <id-of-the-project-you-will-work-on>
sponsor: <id-of-the-sponsor-for-the-event>
---
This space is the main description of the event, where you can provide further details.
Note that you don't need to add information about the project, as the description of the
project, the logo, and the environment set up instructions should be rendered automatically
after specifying the id of the project.
Also, by specifying the id of the sponsor, a box with its information will appear.

The content of your event's description goes below ---.
You may want to copy one of the last events in _posts to be used as reference.
If you need to add your local sponsor which is not already in the _sponsors folder you can do so easily.
To add a sponsor logo please copy it to the static/images/sponsors folder with a name matching the obj_id of your sponsor.
We use png files for our sponsors. The maximum size is: 258px x 82px so please scale them down to match one of those dimensions.
Create an <name_of_your_sponsor>.md file using the format below:
---
obj_id: <unique_identifier_of_your_sponsor>
name: "name of your sponsor"
logo: <relative path to your sponsor logo>
link: <website link to your sponsor>
address: "sponsor's full address"
lat: <float-number-with-latitude-for-the-marker-in-the-map>
lng: <float-number-with-longitude-for-the-marker-in-the-map>

Here you can place a short description of your sponsor's business etc.
