3.1 trunk/Identity

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.1.1 Goals

ee1f37
ee1f37

The <tt>`trunk/Identity'</tt> directory exists to organize CentOS

ee1f37
corporate identity artworks. 
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.1.2 Description

ee1f37
ee1f37

The CentOS Project corporate identity is the "persona" of the

ee1f37
organization known as The CentOS Project.  The CentOS Project
ee1f37
corporate identity plays a significant role in the way the CentOS
ee1f37
Project, as organization, presents itself to both internal and
ee1f37
external stakeholders. In general terms, the CentOS Project corporate
ee1f37
visual identity expresses the values and ambitions of the CentOS
ee1f37
Project organization, its business, and its characteristics.  
ee1f37

ee1f37

The CentOS Project corporate identity provides visibility,

ee1f37
recognizability, reputation, structure and identification to the
ee1f37
CentOS Project organization by means of corporate design, corporate
ee1f37
communication, and corporate behaviour.
ee1f37

ee1f37

The CentOS Project settles down its corporate visual identity on a

ee1f37
"monolithic corporate visual identity structure". In this structure
ee1f37
The CentOS Project uses one unique name (The CentOS Brand) and one
ee1f37
unique visual style (The CentOS Default Theme) in all its
ee1f37
manifestations. 
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
The CentOS Brands
ee1f37

The CentOS brand is the name or trademark that conncects the producer

ee1f37
with their products. In this case, the producer is The CentOS Project
ee1f37
and the products are the CentOS distributions, the CentOS web sites,
ee1f37
the CentOS promotion stuff, etc. 
ee1f37

56a476

See section trunk/Identity/Brands, for more information.

ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
The CentOS Themes
ee1f37
ee1f37

The CentOS themes are a set of image files connected all together by

ee1f37
one unique visual style. Each theme is organized in different visual
ee1f37
manifestations, in order to cover each visual manifestation of The
ee1f37
CentOS Project (i.e., distributions, websites, promotion stuff, etc.).
56a476
See section trunk/Identity/Themes, for more information.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

Inside a monolithic corporate visual identity structure, internal and

ee1f37
external stakeholders use to feel a strong sensation of uniformity,
ee1f37
orientation, and identification with the organization. No matter if
ee1f37
you are visiting websites, using the distribution, or acting on social
ee1f37
events, the one unique name and one unique visual style conect them
ee1f37
all to say: Hey! we are all parts of the CentOS project.  And,
ee1f37
probably, some vister will say: Can I join the party?  Yes you can, it
ee1f37
is free. :)
ee1f37

ee1f37

3.1.3 Usage

ee1f37
ee1f37

To produce identity artworks, use the following commands:

ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
<samp>`centos-art render 'path/to/dir''</samp>
ee1f37
ee1f37

When <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> refers to one renderable directory under

ee1f37
<tt>`trunk/Identity'</tt>, this command renders identity artworks using
ee1f37
both related design models and related translation files.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
<samp>`centos-art render 'path/to/dir' --filter='pattern''</samp>
ee1f37
ee1f37

When <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> refers to one renderable directory under

ee1f37
<tt>`trunk/Identity'</tt>, this command renders identity artworks using
ee1f37
both related design models and related translation files that match
ee1f37
the regular expression passed in <samp>`--filter='pattern''</samp> argument.
ee1f37

ee1f37

To control the number of files produced by centos-art

ee1f37
command, you need to look into the translation path and provide a
ee1f37
regular expression pattern that matches the translation path, or
ee1f37
paths, related to the file, or files, you want to produce.  
ee1f37

ee1f37

The regular expression pattern you provide to centos-art

ee1f37
command is applied to the translation path from its very beginning.
ee1f37
It is not the same to say <samp>`5/en/01-welcome'</samp> that
ee1f37
<samp>`01-welcome'</samp>, the frist expression matches but the last one does
ee1f37
not.
ee1f37

ee1f37

When using <samp>`--filter='pattern''</samp> you don't need to specify the

ee1f37
file extension. It is removed from translation path before applying
ee1f37
the pattern, so it doesn't count here.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.1.4 File name convenctions

ee1f37
ee1f37

As file name convenction, inside CentOS Artwork Repository, both

ee1f37
text-based and image-based file name produced by centos-art.sh
ee1f37
script has the same name of their translation files without
ee1f37
the <samp>`.sed'</samp> extension. The file extension is set as follow:
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.1.4.1 When text-based files are rendered

ee1f37
ee1f37

Text-based files end up having the same extension of their design

ee1f37
template file.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.1.4.2 When image-based files are rendered

ee1f37
ee1f37

Image-based files always end up having the <tt>`.png'</tt> extension.

ee1f37

ee1f37
Info

Tip

Once <tt>`.png'</tt> images are created, other image formats

ee1f37
may be created using the renderFormats post-rendering
ee1f37
action, inside the image-based related pre-rendering configuration
ee1f37
script.
ee1f37
