Open Mic session is an activity going on approximately every other week. A KBSS team member or a guest presents an interesting topic to the rest of the team and anyone willing to listen.
It consists of two posts:
- Open Mic Announcement: includes when and where the next open mic
session will take place.
- It should be published around two weeks before the session
- We should update the topic of the session at least 3 days before the session
- Open Mic Session: includes the session materials (video and presentation)
If you have access to GitHub actions (tab Actions
) of this repository, they can help you create posts semi-automatically.
Otherwise, you have to do it manually.
There are two GitHub that can be used to create posts: one for sessions and one
for announcements. The actions can be started using Run workflow
button
which opens a modal dialog to enter required information (e.g. date of the session). After a successful run of the workflow, a pull request (PR) is created, which one
can revise and fine-tune.
There are two templates, one for sessions and one
for announcements. Templates are located in the _drafts
folder and
contain instructions:
- CREATE A COPY TO THE _POSTS FOLDER AND RENAME IT TO [date]-[name].markdown and then follow instructions in it how it shall look like. Use the current date for the file name, otherwise it will not be displayed.
- Create new post both for announcement and past session.
- Create a PULL REQUEST and send it for REVIEW and MERGE
- KBSS calendar: includes info where and when the session takes place
- KBSS website: it should contain a public link to join the session
