Join the Team


Calling all students, mentors, and researchers! We’d love for you to join the Cyberteam. The cyberteam site is maintained at hpsee/cyberteam, and you can join as a student, researcher, mentor, or some combination of those three (e.g., a researcher could also be a mentor).

1. Clone the Repository

To add your profile, first fork the repository to your GitHub account, and then clone the fork:

$ git clone https://github.com/<myusername>/cyberteam

or with ssl:

$ git clone git@github.com:<myusername>/cyberteam

Change directory into the root of the repository:

$ cd cyberteam

2. Add your Profile

The profiles are markdown files located in _people. You can copy a template for either a researcher, mentor, or student, and you want to name the file in all lowercase with your full name. It will be used as your identifier across the website.

$ cp _people/_mentor_template.md _people/mickey-mouse.md
$ cp _people/_student_template.md _people/mickey-mouse.md
$ cp _people/_researcher_template.md _people/mickey-mouse.md

If you fall into more than one category, you can copy one of the two, and glance at the other to see if you want to add additional fields. The fields are explained in each of the files, and you can remove extraneous that you don’t want to add. Minimally we require a name, and institution.

3. Add your Headshot

If you want a headshot to go along with your profile, along with adding the basefile name as the “image” parameter in the markdown file, you should add the image to assets/img/people, named equivalently to your markdown file, but with an appropriate image extension (png or jpg).

4. Open a Pull Request

When you are ready, make sure you are checked out on a new branch, add the files, and push to your remote.

$ git checkout -b add/profile-mickey-mouse
$ git add _people/mickey-mouse.md
$ git add assets/img/people/mickey-mouse.png
$ git commit -a -s -m 'adding mickey mouse profile'
$ git push origin add/profile-mickey-mouse

And then when you are ready, open a pull request to the upstream at hpsee/cyberteam. It will be reviewed, and when merged, your profile will be live on the site.
