# Website Template
|
||||
|
||||
This repository is a **template** for the platform's websites. It ships as a
|
||||
complete, buildable reference site whose identity is the neutral placeholder
|
||||
**`Site`** / **`site`**. You generate a real site from it in two steps: create
|
||||
a fresh repository, then run the bootstrap script to stamp in your site's
|
||||
display name, slug, and canonical URL.

All four packages are **vendored**, not fetched: the service depends on them by
|
||||
relative path, so each generated repository owns its own copy. That is
|
||||
deliberate — a generated site is fully self-contained and can diverge freely.
|
||||
The trade-off is that engine fixes are propagated to existing sites by hand (or
|
||||
by re-generating and porting content).

## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- Swift 6.3 toolchain (every manifest is `swift-tools-version:6.3`).
|
||||
- Docker — optional, for the containerized run/deploy workflow.
|
||||
- The Hummingbird CLI (`hb`) — optional, only for `make site-run`.
|
||||
- Docker — optional: the containerized run/deploy workflow, the local PostgreSQL
|
||||
instance (`make db-mount`), and the asset-optimization preview.
|
||||
- Hummingbird CLI (`hb`) — optional, only for `make site-run`.
|
||||
|
||||
See [the service README](Services/Website/README.md) for configuration keys,
|
||||
persistence, testing, and deployment.

## Generating a new site
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Create a repository from this template
|
||||
|
||||
On Gitea, mark this repository as a template once (repository **Settings →
|
||||
Template → “Template” checkbox**). New sites are then created with the
|
||||
**“Use this template”** button, which produces a fresh repository with its own
|
||||
history — no template commits carried over.
|
||||
On Gitea, mark this repository as a template once (**Settings → Template →
|
||||
“Template”**); new sites then come from the **“Use this template”** button, each
|
||||
with its own history.
|
||||
|
||||
> No Gitea button? Just clone this repo, `rm -rf .git`, and continue — the
|
||||
> bootstrap script offers to re-initialise git for you.
|
||||
> No Gitea button? Clone this repo, `rm -rf .git`, and continue — bootstrap
|
||||
> offers to re-initialise git.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Bootstrap
|
||||
|
||||
Clone the new repository, then from its root run:
|
||||
From the new repository's root:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
make bootstrap # or: ./Scripts/bootstrap
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You'll be asked for:
|
||||
|
||||
| Prompt | Example | Rewrites |
|
||||
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||
| **Site display name** (PascalCase) | `Loud` | Server name (`LoudWebsite`), `Loud.xcodeproj`, README title. |
|
||||
| **Project slug** (lowercase) | `loud-ams` | Container owner, database name/user, Compose project name. |
|
||||
| **Canonical site URL** (scheme + host) | `https://loud.amsterdam` | The `Sitemap:` reference in `robots.txt` and the `<loc>` entry in `sitemap.xml`. |
|
||||
|
||||
The canonical URL defaults to the reserved placeholder `https://site.example.com`;
|
||||
leaving it there is allowed (the script warns), so you can bootstrap before the
|
||||
domain is decided and set it later in the two crawler files.
|
||||
|
||||
The script rewrites the placeholder occurrences in place, renames
|
||||
`Site.xcodeproj`, optionally starts a fresh git history, and then removes
|
||||
itself along with this file and the root `Makefile`. It refuses to run outside
|
||||
the repository root, and validates the URL before touching anything — a
|
||||
rejected value leaves the tree untouched, so it is safe to re-run.
|
||||
|
||||
Accepting the default display name (`Site`) is supported: the rename is skipped
|
||||
and the placeholders simply stay in place.
|
||||
- The URL defaults to the reserved `https://site.example.com`; leaving it is
|
||||
allowed (the script warns) and can be corrected later in the two crawler files.
|
||||
- Keeping the default display name `Site` is allowed too: the Xcode rename is
|
||||
skipped and the placeholders stay in place.
|
||||
- The script refuses to run outside the repository root and validates the URL
|
||||
before writing, so a rejected value leaves the tree untouched.
|
||||
- It rewrites in place, renames `Site.xcodeproj`, optionally starts a fresh git
|
||||
history, then deletes itself, this file, and the root `Makefile`.

||||
|
||||
### 3. Fill in the content
|
||||
|
||||
Bootstrap leaves reminders, but in short:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Copy & localization** — `Services/Website/Sources/Library/Catalogs/Localizable.xcstrings`
|
||||
(English only out of the box) and the landing / 404 pages under
|
||||
`Services/Website/Sources/Library`.
|
||||
2. **Static assets** — `Services/Website/Resources/Static` (CSS, JS, favicon, icons).
|
||||
The manifest's `name` / `short_name` are empty and are not rewritten by bootstrap.
|
||||
3. **Head metadata** — the pages ship no `summary`, `canonicalURL`, `socialCard`, or
|
||||
`structuredData`, so there is no meta description, no link preview, and no JSON-LD
|
||||
until you supply them. See
|
||||
[Page metadata](Services/Website/README.md#page-metadata).
|
||||
4. **Secrets** — set a real `DATABASE_PASSWORD` in a git-ignored
|
||||
`Services/Website/.env` (the committed `.env.local` is an example only).
|
||||
5. **Domain models** — the `Persistence` package ships a sample
|
||||
`ExampleRecord` / `ExampleRepository`; replace it when you add real data.
|
||||
`structuredData`: no meta description, no link preview, no JSON-LD until you
|
||||
supply them. See [Page metadata](Services/Website/README.md#page-metadata).
|
||||
4. **Analytics** — the cookieless [Umami](https://umami.is) tracker ships **off**
|
||||
(`analytics.websiteID` is empty, so no third-party script is requested).
|
||||
Enabling it, in order: point `String.Analytics.origin` at the instance you
|
||||
report to, allow that origin in `security.contentSecurityPolicy` (`.env.local`
|
||||
already does; `docker-compose.yml` falls back to a `'self'`-only policy), then
|
||||
set `ANALYTICS_WEBSITE_ID`. `ANALYTICS_DOMAINS` limits which hosts report;
|
||||
`ANALYTICS_RECORDER` opts into the session recorder. See
|
||||
[Analytics](Services/Website/README.md#analytics).
|
||||
5. **Secrets** — set a real `DATABASE_PASSWORD` in a git-ignored
|
||||
`Services/Website/.env`; the committed `.env.local` is an example and defaults
|
||||
the password to the slug.
|
||||
6. **Domain models** — replace the `Persistence` package's sample `ExampleRecord`
|
||||
/ `ExampleRepository`. The default driver is in-memory SQLite, migrated on
|
||||
every boot; a real site sets `DATABASE_DRIVER=postgres` and migrates out of
|
||||
band (`swift run Website --database-migrate`). See
|
||||
[Persistence](Services/Website/README.md#persistence).
