This is the repository containing content found at scitools.org.uk.

The content is generated by running the build.py script at the root of the repository. build.py takes special template blocks from index.html and injects them into the resulting html.

The html in this repository is a combination of generated and static content. The built documentation for tools such as Iris and cartopy must be generated using sphinx outside of this repository and subsequently added here. To do so, create the appropriate folder (e.g. iris/docs/v2.2) with the built documentation (typically created via sphinx). Once the content is in place, consider running tools/symlink_common.py . from the root of the repository. This will look through all files and share any common assets into the shared_assets folder, thus reducing the overall repository size to those that need to clone the repository.

To update scitools.org.uk so that it includes the Iris documentation for the Iris 1.12 release the following steps need to be followed.

1. Build the Iris documentation using sphinx and add it to the scitools.org.uk repo.

$ cd <path_to_iris_repo>/docs/iris
$ make html
$ cp -a build/html <path_to_scitools.org.uk_repo>/iris/docs/v1.12

2. Update the latest symlink.

$ cd <path_to_scitools.org.uk_repo>/iris/docs
$ unlink latest
$ ln -s v1.12 latest

3. Update available versions in iris/docs/version_switch.js.

4. Generate the shared_assets.

$ cd <path_to_scitools.org.uk_repo>
$ python tools/symlink_common.py .

Our contributors list, and Contributor License Agreement (the "CLA"), are currently in the process of change.
There is a long list of earlier SciTools contributors who signed our original CLA based explictly on the LGPL3 License.
However, we are now attempting to re-license all the SciTools projects under a new CLA that will allow us in future to adopt any OSI license, as explained here.

This process will only be complete when all previous contributors have signed the new terms. Until then, we respect the rights of all the original contributors, in addition to those on the new list.

Details of the former, original Iris CLA and contributors list were as follows :

``contributors.json``, in this repo, contains a JSON dictionary of all contributors who have
signed the scitools CLA. It is the definitive source of such contributors.
It is where the [CLA bot](https://github.com/SciTools-incubator/scitools-cla-checker)
looks to determine if a CLA is required.
If you've signed the CLA and aren't yet on this list, please consider submitting a PR
to speed the process up. 
A [rendered view](https://scitools.org.uk/signed_cla.html) of the list is also
available.

The current CLA bot checks for an entry in either the old or the new contributors list.
