Standards: Generating Subdomains
Introduction
Both commonly shared host websites, contact4bdsm.net (c4b.net or c4b) and mastersparks.net (ms.net or ms) share common architecture and structure.
- A three panel (banner,body,footer) frame based html
- A custom content management system (CMS)
- Focus upon Full Screen browser viewing and keyboard keys/functions for screen navigation
- Extensive use of Graphics & Sound to compliment content themes and topics
- usage of reStructuredText as the standard for templating and rapid html prototyping
- utilization of awk, sed, bash (PowerShell) to develop custom utilities and standardized infrastructure
- provision (hooks) for future enhancement of the the Q&A theme to be replaced with WordPress
- extensive use of Apache Server's .htacess functionality to impliment security and manage user focused views
Web Development Standards
Blah, Blah, Blah
- Minimize manual update(s) of generated html - automate (gawk) revision of rest2html generated output
- Standardize on common tokens/attributes/identifiers
- Utilize global css attributes for layout specifications
- References to graphics by http: rather then relative reference addressing
- Standaridized metadata specification nominclature and structure
- Resasonable On-Line Documentation & Help Facility
- Consistent Navigation and Layout throughout
- Utilize Javascript and libraries where benefitial
- Use Python for programming tasks
- Documention of the WebDev process and relationships
Program Inventory
Hmmm Use a Table with "invisible" Lines or keep Lines & Columns?
| "control-skel.html": | |
|---|---|
| Defines the number of frames and their attributes. | |
| AWKc4b.py: | edit result from step 2 (pgmname.rest) with narrative subject matter text and appropriate reST directives set baseline parameters for reStructuredText (icon, margins, background, default text size) .. edit reSTstd.awk |
| updates-skel.awk: | |
| set baseline parameters for reStructuredText (icon, margins, background, default text size) .. edit reSTstd.awk | |
| update.awk: | set baseline parameters for reStructuredText (icon, margins, background, default text size) .. edit reSTstd.awk |
| "banner-skel.html": | |
| Contains the Header and | |
| "body-skel.html": | |
| Contains the Topic Names and htperlinks | |
| "footer-skel.html": | |
| This is the "footer" for each Menu | |

Procedural Steps
Here follows a list
- set baseline parameters for reStructuredText (icon, margins, background, default text size) .. edit reSTstd.awk
- generate baseline reStructuredText (.rst) code. using programe restbaseline.bat
- edit result from step 2 (pgmname.rest) with narrative subject matter text and appropriate reST directives
- edit generate skeleton html (rest2html)
- edit update.awk to specify specify domain and relevant
- copy skeleton source and dependency related source
- apply updates.awk to skeleton modules to complete source
- generate all html source via rest2html
- generate all pdf source via rest2pdf
