{% comment %} See instructions in the comments below for how to edit specific sections of this workshop template. {% endcomment %}

{% comment %} HEADER

Edit the values in the block above to be appropriate for your workshop. If the value is not 'true', 'false', 'null', or a number, please use double quotation marks around the value, unless specified otherwise. And run 'make workshop-check' before committing to make sure that changes are good. {% endcomment %}

{% comment %} Check DC curriculum {% endcomment %}

{% if site.carpentry == "dc" %} {% unless site.curriculum == "dc-ecology" or site.curriculum == "dc-genomics" or site.curriculum == "dc-socsci" or site.curriculum == "dc-geospatial" %}

It looks like you are setting up a website for a Data Carpentry curriculum but you haven't specified the curriculum type in the _config.yml file (current value in _config.yml: "{{ site.curriculum }}", possible values: dc-ecology, dc-genomics, dc-socsci, or dc-geospatial). After editing this file, you need to run make serve again to see the changes reflected.
{% endunless %} {% endif %}

{% comment %} Check SWC curriculum {% endcomment %}

{% if site.carpentry == "swc" %} {% unless site.curriculum == "swc-inflammation" or site.curriculum == "swc-gapminder" %}

It looks like you are setting up a website for a Software Carpentry curriculum but you haven't specified the curriculum type in the _config.yml file (current value in _config.yml: "{{ site.curriculum }}", possible values: swc-inflammation, or swc-gapminder). After editing this file, you need to run make serve again to see the changes reflected.
{% endunless %} {% endif %}

{% comment %} EVENTBRITE

This block includes the Eventbrite registration widget if 'eventbrite' has been set in the header. You can delete it if you are not using Eventbrite, or leave it in, since it will not be displayed if the 'eventbrite' field in the header is not set. {% endcomment %} {% if page.eventbrite %} Some adblockers block the registration window. If you do not see the registration box below, please check your adblocker settings.

{% comment %} SCHEDULE

Show the workshop's schedule.

Small changes to the schedule can be made by modifying the schedule.html found in the _includes folder for your workshop type (swc, lc, or dc). Edit the items and times in the table to match your plans. You may also want to change 'Day 1' and 'Day 2' to be actual dates or days of the week.

For larger changes, a blank template for a 4-day workshop (useful for online teaching for instance) can be found in _includes/custom-schedule.html. Add the times, and what you will be teaching to this file. You may also want to add rows to the table if you wish to break down the schedule further. To use this custom schedule here, replace the block of code below the Schedule <h2> header below with {% include custom-schedule.html %}. {% endcomment %}

Schedule

{% if site.carpentry == "swc" %} {% include swc/schedule.html %} {% elsif site.carpentry == "dc" %} {% include dc/schedule.html %} {% elsif site.carpentry == "lc" %} {% include lc/schedule.html %} {% endif %}


Setup

To participate in a {% if site.carpentry == "swc" %} Software Carpentry {% elsif site.carpentry == "dc" %} Data Carpentry {% elsif site.carpentry == "lc" %} Library Carpentry {% endif %} workshop, you will need to complete the Pre-workshop setup steps below. In addition, you will need an up-to-date web browser (e.g. Chrome or Firefox). You will not be able to participate in the workshop if you do not complete these steps ahead of time.

We maintain a list of common issues that occur during installation as a reference for instructors that may be useful on the Configuration Problems and Solutions wiki page.

If you get stuck, join the CoderSpaces Slack workspace and ask for help in the #install-party channel. We monitor that channel and will help you out as soon as we can!

Pre-workshop setup steps

All installation steps are required prior to receiving workshop Zoom link/meeting ID. Installation will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete. Help is available in the #install-party channel or email ([email protected]) to set up a time for 1:1 installation troubleshooting.

  1. Install the following software (all instructions are below).
    • Zoom (make sure you have the latest version)
    • A Unix shell (e.g. bash, zsh)
    • git
    • R
    • RStudio, an integrated development environment for R
  2. Create a GitHub account if you do not already have one. You'll need to know the email associated with your account during the git lesson of the workshop.
  3. After you have installed everything above, download un-report.zip. You'll need the files included during the workshop.
    1. Move un-report.zip to your Desktop and unzip it (usually double-clicking it will work).
    2. Start up RStudio. In the upper left menu, select File > Open. In the window that opens, go to the un-report/ folder on your Desktop and select the file check_setup.R to open it in RStudio.
    3. Click the Source button to run the script. This script will make sure that everything is installed and setup correctly. You should see output printed to the console window (usually the lower left pane in RStudio).
    4. Take a screenshot of (or copy & paste) the console output and send it via email to the lead instructor ({{email}}). Be sure to include the line starting with source(" to the end.
If at any point you get stuck or run into problems, please don't hesitate to ask us for help!
