grzm / meetup-collab Goto Github PK

Repository for collaboration projects at meetup events.

The code for each collaboration event is in a directory named by date. For example, the code for the event on 2017-12-13 is in the collab-2017-12-13 directory. current is a symlink pointing to the current collaboration activity.

Each collaboration event directory contains subdirectories, one per collaboration group (e.g., group1, group2, group3), as well as a group-template directory which is (unsurprisingly) the template from which each per-group directory is copied.

While this is intended to be used with a remote collaboration server (where people at a collab event all log into a remote host), it can also be used on individual machines. Clone this repo and have at it!

If at an event with a remote host, the event organizers will likely have event-specific login information. It will typically involve logging into the remote host and either cd'ing into meetup-collab/current/groupX (where X is your group) or some other session-specific environment (such as tmux).

The seed-template script provides a convenient way to set up a group directories for a collaboration event based on an existing git repo.

For example, to set up group directories for an event on 2017-12-13 based on Carin Meier's Alice in Wonderland katas, run

script/seed-template -d 2017-12-13 -r https://github.com/gigasquid/wonderland-clojure-katas

The current symlink will be set to collab/2017-12-13.
