indicomb2 0.6

Faster indicomb with mkdocs markdown support

indicomb2

Faster indicomb with MkDocs markdown support. An alternative to the original indicomb.

This tool is fast enough to run in CI as your docs get built (say goodbye to your cron jobs!), and comes with MkDocs markdown support.

Quick Start

Install the package:

pip install indicomb2

Set up a configuration file (see the example):

indicomb2 -c my_config.yaml

Features

You can configure indicomb2 to perform several tasks:

1. Scrape: The scrape section grabs events from an Indico category and dumps them to JSON. This step is essential for all the other steps.

2. Meeting Summaries: The meeting_summaries section creates a dedicated page listing all selected meetings in the category. View example

3. Minutes Summary: The minutes_summary section creates a dedicated page listing all minutes for selected meetings in the category. View example

4. Topical Contributions: The topical_contributions section appends a table to an existing page with contributions matching specified keywords. View example

Setup Guide

1. Set up a CERN docs site: https://how-to.docs.cern.ch/
2. Add an environment variable INDICO_API_TOKEN with your token from https://indico.cern.ch/user/tokens/
3. Create a configuration file (see the example)
4. Run indicomb2 -c my_config.yaml

Search (Work in Progress)

Instead of looking through events in a specified category, you can also search all of indico with

indisearch --config search.yaml 

see search.yaml and search.py. This needs a bit of improvement (figuring out a way to OR queries), but can be useful to highlight topical talks from accross many categories. Forr example a list of talks about GPUs can be found here.
