Privacy Guides Privacy Guides

Your central privacy and security resource to protect yourself online.

About

Privacy Guides is a socially motivated website that provides information for protecting your data security and privacy. We are a non-profit collective operated entirely by volunteer team members and contributors.

Our current list of team members can be found here. Additionally, many people have made contributions to the project, and you can too!

Contributing

Developing

  1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org
  2. Install Python 3.6+
  3. Install mkdocs-material: pip install mkdocs-material
  4. Serve the site locally: mkdocs serve
    • The site will be available at http://localhost:8000/

Your local site will appear slightly different, because the production version of the website uses a private/custom build of mkdocs-material with additional features.

Team members with access to mkdocs-material-insiders should instead:

  1. Clone this repository and submodules: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org
  2. Install Python 3.6+
  3. Install pipenv: pip install pipenv
  4. Start a pipenv shell: pipenv shell
  5. Install dependencies: pipenv install --dev
  6. Serve the site locally: mkdocs serve --config-file mkdocs.production.yml
    • The site will be available at http://localhost:8000
    • You can build the site locally with mkdocs build --config-file mkdocs.production.yml
    • This version of the site should be identical to the live, production version

Releasing

  1. Create a new tag: git tag -s v2.X.X -m 'Some message'
    • View existing tags
    • Tag numbering: Increment the MINOR (2nd) number when making significant changes (adding/deleting pages, etc.), increment the PATCH (3rd) number when making minor changes (typos, bug fixes). Probably leave the MAJOR number at 2 until a massive redesign (v1 -> v2 was the Jekyll to MkDocs transition).
  2. Push the tag to GitHub: git push --tags
  3. Create a new release selecting the new tag
    • Title the release the same as the tag version number without the v, i.e. 2.X.X
    • GitHub should let you auto-generate release notes, otherwise copy notes from the changelog
  4. Publish release, it will be deployed to the live site automatically
