TSWoW Wiki

This is code backing the Wiki for TSWoW, hosted through GitHub pages. You can view the wiki here.

Development

This wiki uses the minimal-mistakes jekyll theme, you can see their documentation for how the project is structured. We use some custom css in _sass, a redirect at _layouts/home.html and some custom javascript to render edit/author links, but otherwise this is a fairly standard installation.

Some notes for testing and developing this wiki locally:

• Check out GitHubs guide for previewing Jekyll sites

• Many paths are currently hardcoded to the tswow wiki url specifically, especially for editing and author data.

• The homepage redirect does not work when hosted locally, but you can still access the homepage by clicking the Home button.

• We use the GitHub API to query author data from the browser, and since this is rate-limited to 60 requests per hour and IP we cache that information in localStorage for 24 hours per page.

• Changes to _config.yml requires you to restart the server process, it does not reload like the other files.
