Remove or fix the Activity from Homepage

[evalica]

Currently the "Activity" feed is not working, so we display just an empty heading.

We should fix it.

Related: #12

What should be displayed there?

[evalica]

It used to be the activity from GitHub: creation of issues or commits.

[RDIL]

Maybe we accomplish this with webhooks or GH api calls?

Hello admin, I would like to work on this issue. Please guide me further and assign me this issue.

[RDIL]

Thanks @NirmalKumarJoshi ! @evalica should be able to guide you further.

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

Thanks @RDIL and @evalica

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

@RDIL At the time of installation it is given that you have to be the member of the organisation. What to do?

[RDIL]

@NirmalKumarJoshi there is a join button somewhere on the website.

[ei8fdb]

@NirmalKumarJoshi I've not gone through the installation, but I (think) it means joining the Open Source Design organisation.

Can you tell me where this occurs?

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

Yeah I joined it. Thanks.

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

I am facing these errors while installation

[RDIL]

@NirmalKumarJoshi run the following commands in your terminal:

gem install github-pages
gem install nokogiri -v '1.10.1' --source 'https://rubygems.org'

If any of the commands fail, try putting sudo before them. Hope this helps!

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

No there are still some issues.

[RDIL]

Then just try running

gem install github-pages

or

sudo gem install github-pages

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

There are same errors for this too.

[RDIL]

Hmm,

sudo gem install zlib

?

[NirmalKumarJoshi]

Same error as in above installation. Wait I will setup the things again!

[jancborchardt]

Regarding the original issue: If we keep the section, then we should also load the tweets and forum posts, as activity doesn’t only happen on Github. :)

@NirmalKumarJoshi @RDIL is this following the Installation guide at https://github.com/opensourcedesign/opensourcedesign.github.io#installing ? The install script should normally take care of this – if anything is missing on your setup, could you add that? :)

[thesanjeevsharma]

@evalica @RDIL I would like to work on this issue, as it's still not resolved.

[RDIL]

Let me see

[RDIL]

@thesanjeevsharma the issue is all yours

[thesanjeevsharma]

@RDIL I am stuck with the installation! Tried all above solutions but still getting the same error every time regarding 'nokogiri'. zlib is also installed.

[RDIL]

Let me see if it works for me

@thesanjeevsharma : running bundle update does not retrieve all needed Gems ?

[thesanjeevsharma]

@Jc-L No, It crashes! Let me checkout the fix.

[rishipurwar1]

Is this issue fixed? If not I want to fix it.

[jancborchardt]

@Rishi007-web go to https://opensourcedesign.net/ and check if anything shows below the "Activity" heading. :) If not, then this issue is not fixed yet and you are free to work on it :+1:

[rishipurwar1]

Trying to set up the environment. Please tell me, I directly fork and clone the project and then remove the activity area directly without installing ruby and jekll. and please tell me one more thing I have to add some content in activity section or just remove it.

[jancborchardt]

Please tell me, I directly fork and clone the project and then remove the activity area directly without installing ruby and jekll.

It should all work as per the "Installing" section in the Readme: https://github.com/opensourcedesign/opensourcedesign.github.io#installing – if it doesn’t, open an issue so we can see how to fix it.

and please tell me one more thing I have to add some content in activity section or just remove it.

Check what it is supposed to show – as far as I remember it should be our Twitter stream. It would be nice to fix that. :)

[Erioldoesdesign]

I don't see the 'activity' section on the website anymore so I'm tempted to say this issue was fixed somehow?

But I also created a new issue in the repo for new folks to stress test the installation process and document that in an .md somewhere in this repo :)

If someone who 'knows' if this is complete wants to close this issue they can 😄
