This repository lets you create WCAG EM Reports using Eleventy.

• Write issues as Markdown files
• Create reports in English or Dutch
• Automatically output a score card in the report

Eleventy is a static site generator. In this project we use it to combine all Markdown files into one HTML file that is a report.

Some more context in: Introducing an Eleventy starter project for WCAG reports

This is a side project, it comes with no warranty.

1. On the command line, install Eleventy globally with npm install -g @11ty/eleventy
2. Get the project files; best fork this project, then clone your copy.
3. When the project files are on your computer, go to folder that contains the project files
4. Run npm install to install all dependencies this project needs.
5. Run npm run dev or eleventy --serve to start a local server and look at the reports
6. Customise the reports: add your own logo, colors, typography and content. There is cipsum everywhere/
7. Create a new report

From now on, you'll onlly need to run that last step: npm run dev or elevent --serve.

You can run npm run add-report, which will ask for a name and duplicate the example folder with that name.

1. Copy the demo folder and give it a unique name (for instance: “mysite”)
2. Add “mysite” into reports.json. This will tell 11ty to group its issues.
3. Provide meta data in mysite/index.njk

1. Add issues as Markdown files the report's folder
2. Add metadata as YAML frontmatter

Issues accept some meta data to help create the report:

1. After initial setup, run eleventy --serve to start a server, this should show you links to all your reports

This tool is meant to help generate WCAG EM reports effectively. Nothing is set in stone, you can change it to your liking.

This section explains where things live.

There are a couple of reporting-related filters available.

Creates a link to a success criterion in the WCAG QuickRef, based on a WCAG SC number.

The mapping from number (e.g. 1.1.1) to slug (e.g. non-text-content) is done in .src/data/sc_to_slug.json.

For instance:

{% 1.1.1 | sc_uri(targetWcagVersion, language) %}

where:

• language is the page's language (required)
• targetWcagVersion is the WCAG version you're evaluating against, for example 2.1 (required)

displays: https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/?versions=2.1&showtechniques=248#non-text-content

This can be used in a link, like so:

<a href="{% 1.1.1 | sc_uri(targetWcagVersion, language) %}">1.1.1</a>

And this content can be variable. If the SC number is in a variable called sc, this is how to link:

<a href="{% sc | sc_uri(targetWcagVersion, language) %}">{{ sc }}</a>

A table of results can be generated like this:

{% sc_table issueList, language, targetLevel %}

where:

• issueList is an object with all issues for this report (assumes each issue has sc in front matter with a number, like 1.1.1) (required)
• language is the page's language (required)
• targetLevel is the evaluation target, one of these options: A, AA or AAA (required)
• targetWcagVersion is the WCAG version you're evaluating against, for example: 2.1 (required)

With the sample_image shortcode, you can output the URL of a screenshot for a sample.

{% sample_image id, reportName %}

You'll need to add the id of the sample (e.g. sample-1) and the folder name of the report (e.g. example).

This will then output either images/sample-1.png (if it exists) or the URL to a default image.

The default can be changed by updating .src/reports/example/images/default-screenshot.png.
