There are many ways you can contribute to this project:
- Regularly add Sabbath School lesson content
- Provide source (PDF, HTML or any other) of the Sabbath School content
- Create Bible verse parsers for languages that do not have
- Find and correct mistakes in existing lessons
Please note that best way to create folder structure is to use create.js script approach. Below is the
explanation of existing folders & files.
Each quarterly has few parameters that are reflected in the way files and folders are organizes:
- Language
- Quarter
- Type (Could be Adult, Easy Reading, Youth & etc)
- Quarterly Info file
- Quarterly cover image
Folder structure for quarterly looks like that
src/[language code in ISO 639-1]/[quarter_number] - which will point to the root folder of the quarterly
quarter_number - has following format YYYY-QQ or YYYY-QQ-TYPE, where
YYYYis four digit number of yearQQis the numerical value of quarter must be one of [01, 02, 03, 04]TYPEis the short representation of quarterly type. Omitted if adult version of the lesson
Quarterly info file must be named info.yml and placed in the root folder of the quarterly. As you may understand it
is written in YAML format. See for example src/en/2016-04/info.yml for more.
Quarterly cover file must be named cover.png and placed in the root folder of the quarterly. It's a PNG image that represents
the cover of the quarterly.
Quarterly content (weekly and daily lessons) have it's own specific format and structure based on the following parameters:
- Week number
- Day of week file
- Type of reading
- Week info file
- Week cover image
So quarterly structure looks like that:
[quarterly_root_folder]/[week_number]/[read_file]
So main content of Sabbath School lesson is the read_file. This is the markdown type file with the annotation (comment)
section on top. For simplicity follow the numerical approach for days of the week readings (Sun through Sat) naming according
to the numerical sequential value of the day of week. Additional readings like inside stories, teacher comments & etc can be named
according to the type. For example create.js will name them inside-story.md and teacher-comments.md.
This little script will help you to create structure for the quarterly. See below info for the usage
Create the file structure for a quarter in given language. Usage: /usr/local/bin/node ./create.js -s [string] -l [string] -q [string] -c [num] -t [string] -d [string] -h [string] -u [bool] -i [bool] Options: -s, --start-date Start date in DD/MM/YYYY format. Ex: 25/01/2016 [required] -l, --language Target language. For ex. 'en' or 'ru' [required] [default: "en"] -q, --quarter Quarter id. For example: 2016-04 or 2016-04-er (easy reading) [required] -c, --count Amount of lessons in quarter. Typically 13 but can be more [required] [default: 13] -t, --title Title of the quarterly in target language [required] -d, --description Description of the quarterly in target language [required] -h, --human-date Human readable date of quarterly. Ex. Fourth quarter of 2016 [required] -u, --teacher-comments Include teacher comments [default: false] -i, --inside-story Inside story [default: true] -k, --lesson-cover Create lesson cover placeholder images [default: false] Missing required arguments: s, q, t, d, h
When ran properly it will create the structure under src folder. For an example please see src folder that contains
