Here we are - my new notebook!
So, I moved things over to here: GitHub Pages. Everyone else in the lab has been using these for quite some time.
It took me a bit of time to get everything configured, as I wanted to use a theme, instead of the default “jekyll-now” theme that everyone has has used. This theme (Basically Basic) had all of the features that I felt I needed:
Built-in search
Tag organization
Project (i.e. Categories) organization
Display post date alongside the post excerpt
Getting things up and running just to begin posting wasn’t terribly difficult. I set things up using the “remote themes guide” found in the Basically Basic documentation.
I’ll have to manually transfer the content of those two posts.
I wrote the following script to do that conversion:
Although that script looks short and sweet, it took an inordinate amount of time to make it functional (I really got hung up on the regex in the grep
command). I had to post to Stack Overflow to get it figured out.
