CoNexDat website

Static site for the Grupo de Redes Complejas y Comunicación de Datos at FIUBA — built with Jekyll on top of the academicpages template, with jekyll-polyglot for ES/EN/FR and jekyll-scholar for BibTeX-driven publications.

Published at https://conexdat.github.io/. The legacy URL https://cnet.fi.uba.ar/ 302-redirects here; the FIUBA Apache box stays online only for serving bulkier datasets.

Local development

Requires Ruby 3.2+ (with Bundler).

bundle install
bundle exec jekyll serve --livereload --config _config.yml,_config.dev.yml

Open http://localhost:4000/, http://localhost:4000/en/, http://localhost:4000/fr/.

Layout

• _config.yml — site config + polyglot + scholar
• _pages/<page>.md / <page>.en.md / <page>.fr.md — one file per language
• _data/members.yml — group members (current / external / alumni), trilingual
• _data/projects.yml — research projects, trilingual
• _data/news.yml, _data/highlights.yml — home-page panels
• _data/navigation.yml — top nav with localized labels
• _bibliography/*.bib — publications (rendered by jekyll-scholar)
• _includes/people-list.html, projects-list.html — shared layouts
• _includes/masthead.html, head.html — overridden for i18n + favicon
• images/ — logo, favicon, profile picture

Deploy

Pushes to main trigger .github/workflows/deploy.yml, which builds the site under Ruby 3.2 and publishes _site/ to the gh-pages branch via peaceiris/actions-gh-pages. GitHub Pages is configured to serve from gh-pages.

The github-pages gem is not used because GitHub's auto-build sandbox does not whitelist jekyll-polyglot or jekyll-scholar.

Migrating new content

The _data/ files are the single source of truth. To add a member, project, or news item, edit the corresponding YAML — the translation columns (es: …, en: …, fr: …) keep all three languages in lock-step. To add a publication, drop a BibTeX entry into the appropriate _bibliography/*.bib.
