Documentation

Overview

Present displays slide presentations and articles. It runs a web server that presents slide and article files from the current directory.

It may be run as a stand-alone command or an App Engine app.

The setup of the Go version of NaCl is documented at: https://golang.org/wiki/NativeClient

To use with App Engine, copy the files in the tools/cmd/present directory to the root of your application and create an app.yaml file similar to this:

runtime: go111

handlers:
- url: /favicon.ico
  static_files: static/favicon.ico
  upload: static/favicon.ico
- url: /static
  static_dir: static
- url: /.*
  script: auto

# nobuild_files is a regexp that identifies which files to not build.  It
# is useful for embedding static assets like code snippets and preventing
# them from producing build errors for your project.
nobuild_files: [path regexp for talk materials]

When running on App Engine, content will be served from the ./content/ subdirectory.

Present then can be tested in a local App Engine environment with

GAE_ENV=standard go run .

And deployed using

gcloud app deploy

Input files are named foo.extension, where "extension" defines the format of the generated output. The supported formats are:

.slide        // HTML5 slide presentation
.article      // article format, such as a blog post

The present file format is documented by the present package: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/polaris1119/tools/present
