Create and install projects

Note

Tarbell requires Git to install project and blueprints. does not support interactive Git sessions. If Git attempts to open an interactive prompt when accessing a private repository via HTTPS, Tarbell will exit with a warning.

Create a new project with tarbell newproject <projectname>

Run

tarbell newproject

You’ll be asked a few questions, such as which path you’d like to create the project on, whether you want to use Google spreadsheets, and whether you want to instantiate a git repo. (See the tutorial for more details.)

When you’re done, run a preview server

tarbell switch myprojectname

You can now open up /path/to/myprojectname and start editing the “index.html” file.

Install an existing project with tarbell install <repository-url>

Note

The project must include a tarbell_config.py file and be able to be cloned with Git. If the project uses Google spreadsheets, your Google account must be able to access the spreadsheet in question.

Run

tarbell install https://urltorepository.com/projectname

e.g.

tarbell install https://github.com/sc3/crime-punishment
