To build this you need to install
- make
- graphviz
- python virtualenv
In the virtualenv
pip install -r requirements.txt -c constraints.txt
For development we currently use Noble as our build platform.
And all python versions are pinned in the constraints file to make sure that things are reproducible.
To upgrade the system validate that things are working and then use pip freeze > constraints.txt to lock in the versions to upgrade.
For local testing of the current tree use:
make html
sensible-browser build/html/index.html
To test building the multisite version deployed to the website use:
make multiversion
sensible-browser build/html/rolling/index.html
NB: This will ignore local workspace changes and build from the branches.
