how to edit the website

Installation

Ubuntu dependencies

sudo apt install ruby-full make gcc gpp build-essential zlib1g zlib1g-dev ruby-dev dh-autoreconf

Update gem packages

sudo gem update

Install Gem bundler

sudo gem install bundler

Clone the website

git clone https://github.com/LibreELEC/website.git

Install Jekyll

cd /path/to/git/website/

bundle install

Run the website from Linux

Run the command from the cloned website folder.

bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload --unpublished --incremental

Run the website from Windows (WSL2)

It is possible to run Ruby natively in Windows but this is difficult to do. So in our example we just run it at WSL and bypass all those problems.

Run the command from the cloned website folder.

bundle exec jekyll serve --force_polling --livereload --unpublished

Display the website

After starting the server the website is autogenerated at every change excluding changes at _config.yml and packages.json that requires a restart of the server.

The website is now located at http://127.0.0.1:4000/ .
