Airport Codes

A website that tries to make sense of those three-letter airport codes.

Contributing

If you'd like to add an airport or fix an error, please:

Working Locally

This repo has a lot of images, so may take some time to clone. If you'd like to speed up that process, you can clone only the latest (and not the entire commit history) by cloning with this command:

With SSH:

git clone --depth=1 git@github.com:lynnandtonic/airport-codes.git

With HTTPS:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/lynnandtonic/airport-codes.git

To build the site locally:

npm install
npm run dev

Adding/Editing Airport Content

Airport content can be found in /data in individual files. Use the three-letter airport code as the filename (e.g. phx.json).

Content in each json file:

  • id = three-letter code (e.g. phx)
  • code = three-letter code (phx)
  • name = airport name (Sky Harbor International Airport)
  • city = primary city name (Phoenix)
  • state = state name, if applicable (Arizona)
  • stateShort = state abbreviation, if applicable (AZ)
  • country = country name (USA)
  • description = description, accepts markdown, use * for emphasis on letters
  • imageCredit = name of photographer
  • imageCreditLink = URL of photographer's Flickr page

You can also optionally add for aid in searching:

  • city2 = another city or county the airport may be known for
  • city3 = another city or county the airport may be known for

Adding a json file to /data will automatically render it. You do not need to manually add the path anywhere.

Images

  • Please use photos from Flickr that are licensed under Creative Commons.

  • If photos are not available on Flickr, please use Wikipedia with the same license.

  • Please save out 4 sizes of each image as a JPG with the filename convention code-photographer.jpg

    • Card, 250px height, put in assets/images/card
    • Small, 500px width, put in assets/images/small
    • Medium, 900px width, put in assets/images/medium
    • Large, 1500px width, put in assets/images/large
  • Please optimize images

  • Add variable and photographer name to /assets/globals/image-names.styl. The photographer name must match how it is spelled in the image file name. So if an image is named abq-david-basanta.jpg you would add 'abq': 'david-basanta' to the image-names.styl.

Editing Templates

Most site content is written in Jade templates which produce the site HTML.

The Jade files are located in /templates and /src/views/templates.

Note that these aren't markdown files and the syntax and whitespace you use does matter quite a bit. See the Jade documentation to see how to use Jade.

Editing CSS

This site uses Stylus for preprocessing. Please follow the established indentation and commenting patterns.

Stylus files are located in /assets.

Declaration Order

Please use the following loose declaration order:

  • Box-model properties
  • Display and Positioning
  • Backgrounds
  • Borders
  • Box Shadows
  • Fonts and Colors
  • Other
