## Installation



Just follow the instructions below, and then you can change the content of the pages and site settings.



- [Download the package](https://github.com/carlesloriente/bootstrap-theme-jekyll/archive/refs/heads/main.zip) or clone the project running the command:

   git clone --recursive [email protected]:carlesloriente/bootstrap-theme-jekyll.git

```



- Install Ruby Gems and other dependencies, run the command:



```bash

  sh bin/install.sh

```



### Configuration



1. Update with your settings the configuration file `_config.yml`:

   - `landing` (Setting for the theme landing site, please set to `false`)

   - `title`

   - `author`

   - `url`

   - `timezone`

   - `description`

   - `full_description` (Setting for the theme landing site, please set to `false`)

   - `gh_repository` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `email` (Set to a working email address, and then if you want to enable the contact form, create a free account at [Formspree](https://formspree.io))

   - `formemail` (fill in with your Formspree code; after that, fill out and send the form on the contact page, check your email and verify if you are receiving the messages)

   - `twitter_username` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `github_username` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `facebook_username` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `instagram_username` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `linkedin_username` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `kofi` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `google_site_verification` (Optional; if not needed, comment it out)

   - `disqus_shortname` (To enable the comments feature, create a free account at [Disqus](https://disqus.com), and fill in with your Disqus shortname, if not needed; comment it out)



### Add your content



You need to create new posts/articles inside the folder named `_posts`. The files should be in markdown format. Use one of the sample files to learn more about the syntax and [Front Matter](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/) settings. Remove the unwanted files.



> **⛔** Posts should be named YEAR-MONTH-DAY-title.MARKUP (Note the MARKUP extension, which is usually .md or .markdown).



### Setup local environment



Use the Jekyll build and web server command `bundle exec jekyll serve` or set up the local development environment (*recommended*).



#### Use HTTPS



Suppose you want to use HTTPS in your environment and eliminate browser warnings when developing. In that case, the bundle comes with handy pre-generated certs.



Navigate to folder `bin/certs` and execute the following command to validate certs and update the CA trust DB.



```bash

  openssl verify -CAfile ca_selfsigned.crt wildcard.local.crt && sudo cp ca_selfsigned.crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/ && sudo update-ca-trust

```



- Modify your /etc/hosts file adding `127.0.0.1 bootstrap-theme.local`. Depending on your setup, there will already be an entry for 127.0.0.1; add bootstrap-theme.local after the last argument.

- Execute the command `sh bin/build-local.sh`, which will build the site files, launch the Webrick web server using the `_site_local` folder as webroot, and open your browser.

- For the first time only, you must make your browser trust the wildcard domain cert.

  - Mozilla Firefox: After opening the URL `https://bootstrap-theme.local:8000`, the message "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead" is shown; click the `Advanced` button and then `Accept Risk & Continue`.



> **ⓘ** Check this gist to create your own CA and wildcard cert.



### Host your site



#### in GitHub-Pages



You can host your site using GitHub Pages. Follow the [official guide](https://docs.github.com/en/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/creating-a-github-pages-site).



> **ⓘ** GitHub Pages hosting is free; you need an account and repository.



#### in Amazon S3 bucket



You can host the site using an S3 Bucket; please follow the [AWS guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/WebsiteHosting.html).
