This repository hosts the content of the Bazel blog, available at https://blog.bazel.build/

Send a Pull Request adding a file to https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-blog/tree/master/_posts using the following filename format: <year>-<month>-<day>-<title>.md This filename format is required by the Jekyll processor.

Begin your post with the following lines:

---
layout: posts
title: <whatever>
---

If you omit the layout, the blog post will not be formatted properly. If you omit the title, it won't have a title.

Write the body of your post below the "---". If you have headers in your post, use H2 and smaller headers (in makedown H2 is denoted by ##).

To build the site, you will need Jekyll version 2.5.3 or above. For instance, it can be installed with apt-get install jekyll on recent Ubuntu (tested on 16.10).

To deploy the site, you will need gsutil and to authenticate with gcloud auth login.

To stage the site, run bazel run //:site.

See the Jekyll site if you need more info.

To deploy a build of the website, run bazel run //:site -- --push.
