Very cool

I don't know how much I could help but it looks like a fun way to learn more about git and what a static website entails as opposed to whatever is in effect now.

I am having trouble finding where to register.

I keep getting 'bad gateway' error here: https://repo.anhonesthost.net/rho_n/hpr_generator

If I go to anhonesthost.net it is an 'Index of' page, where there is a link to cgi-bin, that leads to '403 forbidden' when clicked.

The git clone command run in linux connects but asks for a password.

Where can I sign up to be a member?

Repo Location

It looks like we killed repo.anhonesthost.net.

Can the hpr_generator repo be moved to gitlab.com? Moving the repo would eliminate the need for an additional read only mirror, and we could take advantage to gitlab's CICD.

Automated build on Gitlab

I was able to get Gitlab CICD to build the HPR static site.

First step was creating a mirror of the HPR generator repo:

git clone gitea@repo.anhonesthost.net:rho_n/hpr_generator.git git remote add gitlab_mirror git@gitlab.com:norrist/hpr_generator_mirror.git git push gitlab_mirror main

Then I created a Gitlab CICD pipeline to: - check out the hpr site generator from the mirror - load the HPR daily mysql dump into a mysql database - build the site - publish to gitlab pages.

The CI project is https://gitlab.com/norrist/hpr_generator_build

The build is published at https://norrist.gitlab.io/hpr_generator_build/

Sweet! nice work norrist

I was thinking of having a mirror on Gitlab or my own Gitea instance, but now that you've done the heavy lifting.... ;)

One minor modification to your site.cfg and your Gitlab pages will have the audio files and transcripts pointing to the correct spot on archive.org

RE: Registering at https://repo.anhonesthost.net

Hi Mechatronic, if you goto https://repo.anhonesthost.net -- at the top right of the page there is a register button which takes you to a form to fill out.

It is not an automated process. It may take a day or two for your registration request to be processed.

I am looking into mirroring in a public location, just haven't made time to do that yet
