Editing content

The content files are in the content/ directory, in the form of markdown files, in different languages.

The content/calendar directory contains one yaml file with the currently planned walks, see next session on how to edit.

The content/projects directory contains the texts presentation of the different projects.

The content/pages directory contains the other website pages: the index/bio/intro, the gallery (empty because there is no text).

Images can be dropped in the content/gallery folder, name as no importance, a plugin is going to resize them and sort them by hours of the day they were taken (using their metadata).

Adding walk entries

The moonwalk calendar is a yaml file, in content/calendar/. To add a new entry:

1. open the website in a browser and go to the calendar to see what are the next New/Full moon dates
2. either copy the date by hand (with - between 2-digit numbers) or click anything on the related date box on the calendar webpage (it will automatically copy the data)
3. add a new entry in the yaml file by pasting the date (at one more indentation level than the calendar: key)
4. fill with the other fields like so:

  calendar:

    #New Moon walk on the 30.04.22
    30-04-22:
      event_type: 
        en: "Walk"
        fr: "Ballade"
        nl: "Wandelen"
        es: "Paseos"
      start_time: "20:00"
      start_location: "Drève du comte"
      start_location_link: "https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/14502214#map=17/50.79518/4.40096"

Everytime the webpage load it will first get the New/Full moon dates from the API, then see if any entries in the calendar matches one of those date and if it does, add the corresponding informations to it.
