Gardening

This script generates static digital gardens. The system processes files to generate a simple HTML page, which can then be served locally or in a server for viewing.

Prerequisites

Python 3.x installed on your machine.

Steps to Run the Project

Clone the Repository:

git clone https://git.xpub.nl/poni/gardening.git
cd gardening

Create a Virtual Environment:

python3 -m venv .

Activate the Virtual Environment:

• On Windows:

    .\Scripts\activate
  

• On macOS and Linux:

    source bin/activate
  

Install Dependencies:

pip3 install -r dependencies.txt

Generate the HTML File

• Add files you want to show in the digital garden to 'website/content/garden/'
• Edit the header and the footer markdown files in 'website/content/misc/'
• Edit, if you want, the config.json file to edit the name of the garden and the colors of the website.

Then launch:

python3 app.py

This script reads the 'website/content/garden/' contents, compress media, converts it to HTML, applies styles, and integrates it into a complete HTML structure.

Test it running un a Local Server:

cd website

python3 -m http.server

Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:8000 to view your digital garden.

PUT IT ONLINE!

Just add the whole 'website/' folder in your server. Don't you know how to do it? Contact me! i will give you some advice -> poni @ habitattt . it

Further

If you delete some or upload new files from the garden folder, re-run the code and it will update itself.

If you want to embed a video or a track from other websites, just copy the embedding options from there and paste it in a .txt file inside the garden folder.

This is hyper-beta. Suggestions are really welcomed! Write to -> poni @ habitattt . it
