Adding your collection data
Before adding your collection data, take note of the project’s structure, including:
| directory | purpose |
|---|---|
_data |
where raw, unprocessed images and metadata files go. these will not be output to the compiled static site. |
_qatar |
where the pages for each collection item in the qatar collection were generated. if you have a collection called photos the pages will be generated to a directory _photos. |
img/derivatives |
where the image derivatives are generated after running the wax:img:derivatives task |
More information on Jekyll directory and file conventions can be found in the Jekyll documentation.
Delete demo data and files and directories generated by wax tasks
After exploring the site and its files, delete the following demo files and directories:
_qatardirectoryimg/derivativesdirectory
You can do this manually or you can run the command
bundle exec rake wax:clobber qatar
Also delete any qatar files and folders within _data.
Swap in your collection data
- Drag your own directory of images (named after your collection) into
_data/raw_images - Drag your own metadata records (i.e. your .csv, .json, or .yml file) into
_data
