⚠️ DO NOT MAKE CHANGES TO THE creativecommons/creativecommons.github.io REPO DIRECTLY.
This site is built using Lektor. All changes to opensource.creativecommons.org (creativecommons.github.io) must be made here and deployed via lektor (see Deployment, below).
The Creative Commons team is committed to fostering a welcoming community. This project and all other Creative Commons open source projects are governed by our Code of Conduct. Please report unacceptable behavior to [email protected] per our reporting guidelines.

Make sure you have:
To install these, execute the following commands:
For macOS:
brew install pipenv
brew install node
For GNU/Linux:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kennethreitz/pipenv/master/get-pipenv.py | python
sudo apt update
- Install Node.js
sudo apt install npm
- Clone this repository.
- Open your command line interface and
cd
to the repository root directory. - Run
pipenv install
to create a Python virtual environment and install the requirements for this project.
pipenv
doesn't always provide the best error messages (Provide better error
message if the project’s virtual environment is broken). If all
else fails, try removing the virtual environment and reinstalling:
pipenv --rm
pipenv install
- Run
pipenv run lektor server -f webpack
to start the Lektor development server. - You will be able to see the website at
http://localhost:5000/
.- The Lektor server will rebuild the site every time you change any content.
-
Should you get series of type errors that looks something like
npm ERR! typeerror Error: Missing required argument #1
, after runningpipenv run lektor server -f webpack
, this is most likely due to running an older version of Node.js.As stated earlier in the prerequisites, you should be running Node.js version 12+. Follow this tutorial to upgrade your node version (for GNU/Unix systems).
-
Should you get an
OSError: [Errno 28] inotify watch limit reached
after running any command, this means that your system file watcher is running out of alloted handles, usually because the workspace is large and contains many files.The solution is to run:
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
This increases your
inotify
watch limit (for the session) to 524288, which is the maximum value and is also enough to allow the setup go through. You can learn more about file watchers from this blog post or from the VS Code documentation.
We have continuous deployment set up. To deploy, push your code to the master
branch (or make a pull request against the master
branch. GitHub Actions
builds and deploys the site whenever it detects new commits on the master
branch.
The GitHub Actions configuration is located at
.github/workflows/lektor-build-deploy.yml
.
⚠️ For reference only, you should not need to not do this.
When you are ready to deploy a new version of the site, run lektor deploy
(assuming you have your GitHub SSH key already set up and you have access to
the creativecommons/creativecommons.github.io repository). That's
it, it's live on production!
Here's how the code is structured in the top level of the repository:
assets
: This directory contains the JavaScript and CSS files for the project built via webpack. Most of the JavaScript and CSS is third-party code and loaded via CDN so this is pretty empty.content
: The content of the site lives here. Here's an explanation of how content works in Lektor. This is probably what you'll be modifying most often.models
: All content in Lektor is associated with data models to define their schema. Currently, we only use the defaultpage
model that ships with Lektor.templates
: This is where the Jinja2 templates that render content are stored. See the Lektor template documentation for more information.webpack
: This is where all the webpack config files as well as Sass and JavaScript files for the project resides. The JavaScript and Sass files are compiled and saved in the assets folder during lektor build process.
