Climate Risk Assessment Book

Usage

Building the book

For the first time

If you'd like to develop and/or build this Climate Risk Assesment book, you should:

Clone this repository

 git clone git@github.com:CLIMAAX/crabook.git

Go to the the crabook/ directory that was created by git in the previous step
```
cd crabook
```
Create a Python or Conda virtual environment (example for Conda)
```
 conda create -n crabook python=3.11 pip
```
Activate the environment
```
conda activate crabook
```
Install the libraries, choose:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
installs only the packages required to build the book, while
```
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
```
additionally installs packages for the development of some components of the book, but which are not required during building.
Find the markdown files and edit what you need.
Remove any existing builds by running
```
jupyter-book clean crabook/
```
Finally build the book
```
jupyter-book build crabook/
```

A fully-rendered HTML version of the book will be built in crabook/_build/html/.

Open the file crabook/_build/html/intro.html and navigate to the material you changed to check if everything is as expected.

Once you're happy with the changes, create a new branch, commit your changes and send us a pull request if you'd like to contribute.

Every next time

The Python/Conda environment is needed only for building the book, so you can activate it after editing the files.

Edit the book's source files located in the crabook/ directory
```
cd crabook/crabook
```
Activate the environment
```
 conda activate crabook
```
Remove any existing builds by running
```
jupyter-book clean crabook/
```
Finally build the book
```
jupyter-book build crabook/
```

Useful notes

The _build directory has been added to .gitignore, so when you build the book and add files in git, they will not end up on GitHub.
If you clone the repo in this early phase and work on Jupyter notebooks, you might download some data. Please keep all data in folder named data, as that is also set up in .gitignore and not pushed to the repo.
Please do not add new notebooks to this repo without them being reviewed by project partners.
If you did add some markdown files or notebooks, make sure they are listed in the _toc.yml file too, otherwise they will not be added to the book.

Table of contents switching

TLDR: To have a page show up in our production version of the CRA book, it has to be added to crabook/_toc_prod.yml.

The build process on GitHub in .github/workflows/build-deploy-book.yml contains a step to detect the repository it is started from. If this repository is CLIMAAX/crabook, the default table of contents crabook/_toc.yml is replaced by the file crabook/_toc_prod.yml. This enables us to hide pages in the production repository that are still under development in our test repository without having to edit the table of contents file back-and-forth every time changes are pushed to production.
