Automation to render my university notes as a webpage.

👉 here! 👈

Notes written in markdown using the atom text editor:

• atom
• markdown-preview-plus
• atom-image-assistant

Markdown is stored in AWS S3 and rendered with python in AWS Lambda. Deployed with Zappa.

Python packages:

• boto3
• flask
• flask_misaka

Web libraries:

• MathJax
• HighlightJS
• TocBot

Sources of inspiration:

• Infra tutorial
• Flask tutorial

I have set an alias upnotes which basically calls s3_upload.py to upload all .md and image files to the S3 bucket that holds the static content.

I may need to change the behaviour of this down the line if there are a lot of images. Potentially check for existing images in the bucket and only upload any missing ones. Maybe diff existing ones?

Running upnotes css uploads the custom .css files for when I make changes to the styling.

If any changes are made to the .html templates, the app has to be re-deployed via zappa update dev.
