My blogpost about all the cool opensource stuff happening in our gov is done. 🎉

Slight complication; I just realized that my work laptop doesn't have an IDE or git, and I don't have the privileges to install anything. Normally I'd do a hugo build and push to my site on Codeberg.

I thought I'd manually create a folder, copy and change the index.html of another post in Codeberg Pages, but that didn't work. Solutions anyone?

I'm two cocktails in at the hotelbar so simple solutions please. 😂

Can you not get admin privileges to install vscode at least?

[mijndert@toot.community]

@Gina assuming you have CI set up to automatically build and deploy the website; make the change right in codeberg using the edit button. idk.

@Gina

Windows?

Install ubuntu app

Use WSL2.

Use git and hugo 🙂

@cdecc31c6d9406e9a7d6b0067412aa661d9d31c8035c3fd65c06301d1cac3b92 Nope, I work for government, that would require two forms with at least three people and a commission giving approval.

@mijndert I don't have CI set up :'( I used to always do the build locally (on my other laptop at home)

@Gina could you rent a virtual machine somewhere for a few hours and run hugo there?

[jbouter@fosstodon.org]

@Gina set up codeberg CI to build and deploy for you. Then edit directly in the codeberg editor. But not sure that's a 2 cocktail kind of job.

It may also help to name the file index.html instead of html.index 🙃

Best of luck!

@x_hace Smart, but I just checked; my laptop has WSL but it's blocked 😢

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@jbouter I wanted to do but it requires approval from someone at Codeberg first?? Considering it's getting late in Europe that prob won't happen tonight. 😢

"Codeberg provides a Woodpecker CI instance at ci.codeberg.org.

Onboarding requires a few manual steps, as to prevent the abuse of Codeberg's limited resources. You will need to request access by filling out this form. After submitting, a Codeberg volunteer will review your request and grant you access if your use case is appropriate."

@jbouter lol on the index.html 😂

[jbouter@fosstodon.org]

@Gina @n0toose anything you can arrange for this lovely lass who is a huge influence on open source in the Dutch government? ♥️

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@m4lvin oh derp!! I didn't think of that, but I could totally spin up a server real quick. Thanks! :D

@Gina
ssh to a vps and do everything there

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@lig setting it up right meow

[lig@fosstodon.org]

@Gina
I would probably try my Termux on Android. I bet Hugo could run there. Go is alright on arm64 usually.

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@lig I considered using Termux but man does that seem tedious

[n0toose@chaos.social]

@Gina @jbouter It's a bureaucracy, but if you make a request under https://codeberg.org/Codeberg-e.V./requests and follow the template, you will be automatically approved with a bot (that has had this ability for a week or two). If the auto-approval criteria don't kick in, Codeberg volunteers usually take between 20-180 minutes.

This is to prevent abuse and "remind" people of our ToU, but it's unconventional. If you want, feel free to provide me with a repository link and I'd do it for you if it checks out.

[n0toose@chaos.social]

@Gina @jbouter Keep in mind that Codeberg Pages is actually relatively unstable and we have been working on solutions to improve its availability - if you're trying to host a "high-stakes" blog (dutch gov dept?), we would like to take a more careful look to help out and not have you get disappointed later down the line.

@Gina
Yeah, it wasn't my first suggestion because of that. I needed to tune its onscreen keyboard a bit for it to become kinda ok to type longer commands or do some text editing in Joe.
