## page was renamed from Portal/Building
The portal source lives in module `portal` of [[http://hcoop.sf.net/|our SourceForge project]]'s CVS repository. The main check-out is in `/afs/hcoop.net/user/h/hc/hcoop/portal`.
You should `become_hcoop` before modifying files in the main check-out or running any CVS commands that would modify it.
To build it yourself:
* There are small CGI wrappers which just run compiled binaries in `~hcoop/portal/out/`. `mlt.conf` contains CGI publish path (modify this to suit your system if building locally). These wrappers are generated automatically by `mlt`.
* To recompile and publish on deleuze: {{{
become_hcoop
cd ~/portal
mlt}}}
`header.mlt` and `footer.mlt` are built from assorted other files. Running `make` in a check-out directory should build them. See the Makefile for how they're built. Note that `make` '''won't''' publish changes that you make onto the real web sites; you must use `mlt` for that.
There are some subdirectories of `portal` that contain different web apps, like `app` (the source for join.hcoop.net). You must run `mlt` separately in any of these directories to publish changes in it.
Needed files for building:
* hcoop_header is the one line script `cat /etc/hcoop.header | sed "s/TITLE/$1/g"`
* hcoop_footer is the one line script `cat /etc/hcoop.footer`
* You need /etc/hcoop.header and /etc/hcoop.footer, which are
