Auto-deploying built products to gh-pages with Travis

Auto-deploying built products to gh-pages with GitHub Actions

This is a set up for projects which want to check in only their source files, but have their gh-pages branch automatically updated with some compiled output every time they push.

A file below this one contains the steps for doing this with Travis CI. However, these days I recommend GitHub Actions, for the following reasons:

  • It is much easier and requires less steps, because you are already authenticated with GitHub, so you don't need to share secret keys across services like you do when coordinate Travis CI and GitHub.
  • It is free, with no quotas.
  • Anecdotally, builds are much faster with GitHub Actions than with Travis CI, especially in terms of time spent waiting for a builder.

A short(ish) guide on how to get Jupyter Notebooks up and running on the Bridges supercomputer.

Running Jupyter on a Supercomputer

This quick guide for getting a Jupyter Notebook up and running on Bridges, a supercomputer managed by the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. Bridges is a new machine designed to accommodate non-traditional uses of High Performance Computing (HPC) resources like data science and digital humanities. Bridges is available through XSEDE, which is the system that manages access to multiple supercomputing resources. Through XSEDE, Bridges is available researchers or educators at US academic or non-profit research institutions (see the XSEDE eligibility policies) Allocations are free, but there is a somewhat difficult to understand application process filled with jargon and acronyms that take time to understand. See the XSEDE getting started guide for more information about getting acc

Step by step guide to install nominatim server
I followed these two blogs to install server
1. http://koo.fi/blog/2015/03/19/openstreetmap-nominatim-server-for-geocoding/#Compile_Nominatim
This explains ( and is the main blog which I followed) various steps
2. https://www.linuxbabe.com/linux-server/openstreetmap-tile-server-ubuntu-16-04
This explains how to setup swap files and install tiles if needed.
I will use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as the platform. Just a basic install with ssh server. We will install Apache to serve http requests. Make sure you have enough disk space and RAM to hold the data and serve it efficiently. I used the Finland extract, which was about a 200 MB download. The resulting database was 26 GB after importing, indexing and adding Wikipedia data. The Wikipedia data probably actually took more disk space than the OSM data. My server has 4 GB RAM, which seems to be enough for this small data set.
