GITHUB: HOW TO CREATE A WEBSITE WITH GITHUB PAGES?

Many of us have created sub pages from domains who let us host some space for free like .me, .wordpress.com, .blogspot.com. We used such domains for displaying our profile online. Back in 2008, Github announced GitHub Pages. GitHub Pages allow you to publish web content to a github.com subdomain named after your username. We don't need to worry about the database and many other tedious process of hosting and having it available 24*7.

CREATING GITHUB PAGES

You don't need any technical expertise to publish your web content. You can create a GitHub page following few steps which I'll be explaining in today's blog. Before that I will be explaining different ways of publishing a page at GitHub.

First way of publishing GitHub page is easy one. You can create a page from settings of your repository.

Second way of publishing a GitHub page is directly adding content to the repository. These contents within your repository will point to the github page.

Third way is by using Jekyll framework which helps you to create a blog like website just by pushing the content to your repository.

In this blog I'll explain first two ways of publishing GitHub pages. Using Jekyll Framework is not that hard. I've tried building GitHub pages with Jekyll Framework, but I'm not prepared right now to demonstrate. I'll be writing another blog to explain how to use Jekyll framework for building Blogs with Jekyll Frameworks.

First Method

Create a repository and keep the repository name exactly the same which is something like: your-username.github.io
This is the default GitHub page that will be displayed. In case you want to create a repository page for any of your project. You need to keep it in mind that Url for your repository's page will be appended to your main github page
Make sure your repository has any of these two files: README.md or index.html
This tells GitHub Pages that the repository contains web contents that needs to be hosted.
Go to Settings of your Repository. Scroll down and you will see this GitHub Pages:
Choose a theme. There are a number of themes available for creating the Github Pages:
Select one of the theme and save the changes and you can see the github page build already.
Browse it whose url is: your-username.github.io

SECOND METHOD
Well second method came in the middle of first step because this has something to do with the first Image above i.e. the GitHub Pages Section.

Github pages are disabled by default. Click None and you will see three options

In your master branch if you are going to display the README file as the default information. Choose Master Branch.
If all your web pages are hosted in the master branch and your index.html is hosted in aster Choose Master Branch.
If you have an ongoing project codes in the repository and you plann to separate the project's Wiki that will be displayed as github page in a separate folder, name that folder as docs. Then select the second option.master branch /docs folder.

These are two easy methods of hosting your github Pages. The third One i.e. using Jekyll Framework, I'll soon be writing a blog post about it and explain steps by steps how to use it for creating a GitHub Pages.

GITHUB: Shorten your GitHub Repository Url with GIT.IO

Today's Article is a quick glance about this less known feature provided by Github: GIT.IO . What GIT.IO does is shortens your repository's url. Seems pretty basic us, but this actually plays a significant role for those who always stick to GIT BASH.

Most of us during our web application development use the Command Line Interface. They are so ease to use rather than using drag and drops or simultaneous clicks for a single task. CLI is next cool technology trend that every software framework are fascinated about. So whenever we start a new project we initialize the project configuration via Command Line Interface.

I do some AngularJs Web App development. Talking about my way of configuring projects i normally do npm init which within next steps asks for the github repository. So either I need to copy paste the git repository or type it manually. And here by shortening the repository url with the help of GIT.IO all we need to keep not of is the fiveunique characters linked with the git.io url like shown below:

Here I shorten url of a repository that belongs to a organization that I'm involved with:

Later this long url turns out to be short with just 5 characters appended to git.io.

It would have been even more helpful if github could provide short urls for any Url. But git.io only shortens GitHub.com URLs.

How To Integrate Disqus in Blogger?

Disqus (pronounced discuss) is a worldwide blog comment hosting service for web sites and online communities that uses a networked platform. The company's platform includes various features, such as social integration, social networking, user profiles, spam and moderation tools, analytics, email notifications, and mobile commenting.

Why Disqus?

User can post comment, vote comment, flag comment and share comments to social networks. Also they can subscribe to comments.
You will get notification to your email for each new comment.
A commenter can attach media files (image, video) in their comments.
You can see your site’s comment activity in a graph.
You can set custom avatar for comments for those who don’t actually display their avatar.
Commenter can post their comment as guest or they can post using their open ID.
Disqus adds real time threaded comments and shows a related discussion below comments which reduces your bounce rate.
You can make money from Disqus by showing recommendations just like nRelate related posts.

There are two different way to integrate disquss in any of the content management system(CMS). You can either do all the configuration from the disqus website or do it from your blog gadgets and templates.You just need to choose a platform and follow the instruction.

As our site is hosted in blogger. I did exlpore ways to integrate blogger and disqus. I wanted to integrate it so much because this medium of comment posting is similar to that of some of the great news sharing sites reddit and 4chan. Like these sites, disqus also maintains the threads within thread, vote ups, as well as the recommendation of comments and sharing them. You can not only expect if your blogger read the blogs but with the help of disqus now you can also get their valuable feedback.

Configuration from blogger(Manual work):

In your blogger Dashboard , Click "Layout", and Click "Add a Gadget below the blog text area of your layout where your blog is posted.
Clicking the "Add a Gadget", you will see the collection of Gadgets made available by blogger as well as third parties. Search for "HTML/Javascript"
Enter the title of the gadget as "Disqus".
Save the gadget and also save the arrangements.

Now we will add a disqus code inside that gadget from our Template section. Before doing that make sure that you have created a disqus account. If not signup now it is too easy, Signup and get a username.

Now again go to the dashboard and Click "Template". Then click "Edit HTML".
After that click within the code area and find the text "Disqus". (Searching is done by CTRL+F key combination)
After you find the code block expand the code division.
Find the code snippets withing that division and remove them.
Instead of those codes you just deleted, copy the code mentioned below:

That's It. Now Save your template.
Don't forget to hard refresh your blog( Which is generally done by pressign CTRL+ F5)

You Should now see a disqus comments area just below your website. Cheers1

How to replace a string in a file(s)?

Working with Files and strings in a file in Unix is what a beginner shell script learner wants to do after s/he learns the very basic commands via terminal. So I found this really really really important resource on unix.stackexchange.com which describes multiple operations on strings in files.

The link mentioned below answers following questions.

replace string `foo` with `bar` in all files in the current directory?

do the same recursively for sub directories?

replace only if the file name matches another string?

replace only if the string is found in a certain context?

replace if the string is on a certain line number?

replace multiple strings with the same replacement

replace multiple strings with different replacements

Quora Q&A: Does Anyone Actually Use Desktop Linux?

After a long time I logged in to Quora and while I was going through the Q&As which were displayed on my Screen I saw this question Does Anyone Actually Use Desktop Linux? Being an Open Source Enthusiast and also a Technical Volunteer for Help Nepal Network's E-Library Project, I believed this question needs a solid answer. Well while I saw the question it already had 100+ answers, But I still took chance to answer my experience about Desktop Linux.
And here is my answer:

Why Not?

Edubuntu installed on KU Lab for Training E-LIBRARY Volunteers

Here at Kathmandu University, Nepal our computer lab's hundreds of Desktop user FEDORA and Ubuntu. I can happily say that everyone here at University is familiar about OpenSource Technologies

We volunteers from Kathmandu University Open Source Community have established E-Library using Edubuntu(A UBUNTU Distribution for Educational Purpose).

The library is set up using LTSP Package. In a school there are one one server and 10clients. The E-Library is used by students from Class one to 8. Which is on average 200students from one school use those computers daily. And till the date, there are almost 30+E-Libraries in Nepal. Project is a joint collaboration of HELP NEPAL NETWORK and DoCSE, KU with the Moto ONE E-LIBRARY PER DISTRICT

Clone a System using Clonezilla

For me Cloning is another term for copying. Cloning is performing a mass copy paste operation but not just normal files like movies and documents. You want to clone an operating system in multiple blank hard disks, what will you do? Will you insert the bootable CS/USB everytime in all of those machines and install them on and on taking a week? I suggest you not to, because I've an alternative which can perform that task. And that is "CLONEZILLA"

Clonezilla is a partition and disk imaging/cloning program which helps us to install or creating a working system via system deployment. We can also perform system recovery tasks with Clonezilla. We can download the iso from its official website.

There are two types of Clonezilla which can choose based upon our need and they are: Clonezilla live and Clonezilla SE (server edition).

Clonezilla live is suitable for single machine backup and restore.
Clonezilla SE is for massive deployment, it can clone many (40 plus!) computers simultaneously.

Clonezilla saves and restores only used blocks in the hard disk. This increases the clone efficiency. With some high-end hardware in a 42-node cluster, a multicast restoring at rate 8 GB/min was reported.

Today I will be demonstrating the Clonig Operation on my blog:

Here are few things which you will need prior to begin Cloning.

Clonezilla iso
Bootable Pendrive(conezilla bootable)
A source hard drive for clonning
A destination hard drive to clone.

1. Download Clonezilla iso file and make a bootable pendrive and boot from it.

2. It will show the boot menu as in the Image 1 below.

Image 1

3. Choose the Clonezilla live (Default settings, VGA 800x600) option and press enter.

Image 2

4. Choose your preferred Language

Image 3

5. Now Choose Don’t touch Keymap option as in Image 3.

6. Choose Start_Clonezilla Start Clonezilla option and press enter as in Image 4 below.

Image 4

7. Choose device-device option and press enter as in Image 5 below.

Image 5

8. Choose Beginner Beginner mode: Accept the default options option and press enter as in the Image 6 below.

Image 6

9. Choose disk_to_local_disk local_disk_to_local_disk_clone option and press enter as in the Image 7 below.

Image 7

10. Be careful in this step, this is the crucial part. Now you have to choose the Hard Disk from which data is to be transferred. So, check the Serial Number of Hard disk from which data is to be transferred (known as SOURCE) and accordingly choose the option with that serial number and press enter. Double Check the serial number of hard disk because it can cause the reverse process which we wouldn’t want.

Image 8

11. Now in this step, it will show only one option which is the hard disk where the data will be copied (Known as Destination). That is in this hard disk we’ll clone our updated data or contents. Be sure and double check if it is the disk where we want to clone our updated hard disk. To be sure Check the serial number of the hard disk.

Image 9

12. Choose Skip checking/repairing source file system option and press enter as in Image 10 below.

Image 10

13. Press ENTER to proceed as in Image 11 below.

Image 11

14. Type Y and press ENTER for confirmation as in the Image 12 below.

Image 12

15. Again for confirmation type Y and press ENTER as in the Image 13 below.

Image 13

16. Now the partition table will be created on the destination disk. You don’t have to do anything in this step just for info, screen like Image 14 will be appeared.

Image 14

17. Now it will ask for confirmation for cloning boot loader to target or destination disk so basically, type Y and press ENTER as in Image 15 below.

Image 15

18. Now the cloning will start and let it be, the screen will look as in Image 16 below.

Image 16

19. After complete cloning, it will ask to continue so press ENTER. The screen is as in Image 17 below.

Image 17

20. Now Power off the system. And the cloning is completed.
