canonical.com

The new codebase, to replace the old one.

This is the repository for the canonical.com website.

Architecture overview

This website is written with the help of the flask framework. In order to use functionalities that multiple of our websites here at Canonical share, we import the base-flask-extension module.

Development

The simplest way to run the site is with the dotrun snap:

dotrun

Afterwards the website will be available at http://localhost:8002.

When you start changing files, the server should reload and make the changes available immediately.

Greenhouse API

To work locally on the /careers section of the site, you will need to add a HARVEST_API_KEY environment variable to .env file. You can find this via the Greenhouse admin panel.

Deploy

You can find the deployment config in the deploy folder.
