The GridPP New User Engagement Programme: Selected Case Studies

This document presents a selection of case studies from the GridPP New User Engagement Programme.

Getting the images

The images used in the document are not stored in this repository. You can get them using the script in assets/images:

$ cd assets/images
$ source get_images.sh

Generating the case studies

The case studies themselves are not written in .tex format; rather, the information has been put into a JSON file that is then read into a Python wrapper class.

To generate the TeX for the case studies document, please use the make_casestudies.py script provided.

$ python make_casestudies.py data/casestudies.json ./.

Testing

To run the tests on the code, use:

$ nosetests --exe --nologcapture

ToDo

• Implement full unit testing for the wrapper classes.
• Implement the HTML case study generation.
