A Links page for Online Semesters of IISER Pune
Example Website: https://adch99.github.io/jan-2022
This project is a template website for hosting the various links that are used during an online semester. It's a fairly simple layout and design made using Bootstrap but it turns out to be extremely useful.
- Fork this repo.
- Create a Google Sheet containing all the relevant data of the course
details and links. This is typically crowd-sourced to the whole batch.
The sheet can be downloaded directly as CSV to the
data
directory. This can be automated by the google sheet API script in the repo (requires a google oauth account). An example is Spring 2021 Datasheet - Run the
main.py
script. This uses jinja2 to put all the data in a template from thetemplates
directory. - Enable GitHub Pages for your repo.
- The
iiserid
column for an instructor refers to the number at the end of their page on the IISER Pune website. For example: for Bhas Bapat the url ishttps://www.iiserpune.ac.in/people/faculty-details/135
soiiserid = 135
. This column serves as the main index in the instructors datasheets, so it is very important to make sure that it exists for each instructor and that it is unique. If there is no such page for an instructor, make up a number but make sure it is not used for any other professor (starting from 1000 can be a good idea for such cases).
You will be keeping the links up to date. Get in touch with us to help! Or simply update things on the sheet and let us know, and we would update the site.
This site is made with Neon Glow, a Bootstrap theme, and Jinja2 for templates.
