Coeur - static site management

Coeur is just another Python tool to generate static sites with thousands of pages, with a bit of extra power.

Name explanation

"cœur" is a French word for "core" or "heart".

This tool is called Coeur for two personal reasons: 1. it will be the core of my blog-farm; 2. one of my favorite places is the Sacre Cœur in Paris.

How to install

Coeur is a common python package, you can install from pypi:

pip install --user blog-coeur

The command to be used is blog-coeur and get help to start to use:

Module CMP - Content Machine Processor

The CMP module was designed to simplify content creation powered by the OpenAI API.

How to Use

The content will be created as posts inside the blog's SQLite database, which is generated by the ssg module. It's important to start your project using the ssg command.

Assuming you already have the blog created with Coeur, you need to set up your OpenAI key in the .env file and then you can use the cmp module as follows:

blog-coeur cmp title-to-post "Aguas de Lindóia" --custom-prompt="Create a full article about the city, need to be funny and talking in a positive way about the place"

The first parameter is required and will be the title of the post.

It is highly recommended to use a custom-prompt to enhance your experience and get better results. This prompt can be in any language.

You can also set the img-url parameter to include an image in the post. This needs to be a valid image URL, such as one hosted on S3.

Module PDS – Post Distribution Service

This module will help us to automatically publish the blog posts on social media.

blog-coeur pds publish [OPTIONS] CHANNELS:{instagram}...
