CA.gov sites leaderboard

This project measures the performance of State of California websites.

It's an instance of speedlify. Check it out at the following URL.

V3, Feb. 2024

Updated to the latest version of speedlify.

Modifications from stock speedlify

We've added a pathPrefix configuration into the .eleventy.js file. This helps the pages work on the /leaderboard/ subdirectory in GitHub Pages.

We've also added a GitHub Actions workflow at .github/workflows/publish.yml. This workflow builds the site and pushes the latest files into the gh-pages branch of the repo. GitHub Pages hosts the site out of that branch.

Run locally

You'll need a recent version of NodeJS to run this project.

First, install the project's dependencies.

npm install

Next, run the page performance tests. Note: this may take one or two hours to finish.

npm run test-pages

Build the site from the test results. (This is optional, as the next command will perform this task too. We're just adding it here for educational purposes.)

npm run build

Finally, start up the test site.

npm run start

This should give you a test page at http://localhost:8080/leaderboard/.

To summarize...

npm install
npm run test-pages
npm run build
npm run start

Updating the live pages

To update the live site on GitHub Pages, follow the above commands to set up the site on your local machine.

The npm run test-pages command will create new results in the _data/results folder. Create a git commit with those new results, then push the changes up to the main branch on GitHub. The GitHub Action workflow (mentioned above) will take care of the rest.

Updating the list of measured sites

Sites may be added, edited, and removed from the _data/sites/cagov.js file. You'll need to rebuild the site to see the new results.
