Contributing to nextcloud.com website

Please take a moment to review this document in order to make the contribution process easy and effective for everyone involved.

Setup of a local development environment

Quick docker setup

Manual setup

  1. Install Wordpress >= 3.8.1
  • Must be in the document root of the webserver (otherwise images won't load :( )
  • Enter what you like for site title, admin user and password, none of this is stored in git
  1. Setup the repository
  2. Clone the repository in a folder of your choice * git clone git@github.com:nextcloud/nextcloud.com next
  3. In the wordpress installation in the wp-content/themes folder, create a link to the folder you just cloned the repository in under the name 'next'
  4. Activate the theme in Appearance > Themes
  5. Import the website content.xml file
  • First install the Wordpress Import Plugin (via Tools > Import > Wordpress Import > Install Plugin)
  • Select the content.xml file from the repository and click upload
  • Select Import
  1. Copy over config.php.sample to config.php and adjust settings as necessary (defaults will work just fine for local environments)

Development Process

  • Fork the repository
  • Setup your local development environment using the instructions above, changing the remote origin url
  • Submit a pull request to master, on github once the feature/bugfix is complete
  • After review (usually following one or two thumbs up), somebody from Nc marketing merges (typically @jospoortvliet )
  • Deployment on nextcloud.com is handled manually by @jospoortvliet or the Nextcloud sysadmins including @LukasReschke

Notes

  • If you are changing SCSS files during development, following command for automatic compilation is recommended:
    • sass --watch [location to scss files]
  • Only Nc marketing merges things

Testing

The list below covers most pages on our site, copy it in a PR that needs site-wide testing, so one can just quickly click the links and check all pages. This is assuming you have a local setup on 127.0.0.1 for testing - we sadly have no working staging server.
