How to change the website
|
|
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [Tor website](https://www.torproject.org) is hosted at several
|
|
|
|
computers for redundancy, and these computers are together called "the
|
|
|
|
www rotation". The www rotation serves a variety of other websites
|
|
|
|
too, like extra.tp.o, dist.tp.o, and more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
How do you edit one of these websites? Let's say you want to edit `extra`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* First you ssh in to `staticiforme` (using an [ssh jump
|
|
|
|
host](doc/ssh-jump-host) if needed)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Then you make your edits as desired to
|
|
|
|
`/srv/extra-master.torproject.org/htdocs/`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* When you're ready, you run this command to sync your changes to the
|
|
|
|
www rotation:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sudo -u mirroradm static-update-component extra.torproject.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: You want to copy image.png from your Desktop to your blog
|
|
|
|
post indexed as `2017-01-01-new-blog-post`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
scp /home/user/Desktop/image.png staticiforme.torproject.org:/srv/extra-master.torproject.org/htdocs/blog/2017-01-01-new-blog-post/
|
|
|
|
ssh staticiforme.torproject.org sudo -u mirroradm static-update-component extra.torproject.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Which sites are static?
|
|
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The complete list of websites served by the www rotation is not easy
|
|
|
|
to figure out, because we move some of the static sites around from
|
|
|
|
time to time. But you can learn which websites are considered "static",
|
|
|
|
i.e. you can use the above steps to edit them, via:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ssh staticiforme cat /etc/static-components.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
How does this work?
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
If you're a sysadmin and wondering how that stuff work or do anything
|
|
|

back there, look at [howto/static-component](howto/static-component). |
