blogtopoid 0.0.2-alpha

blogtopoid

This is pre-alpha. Most things don’t work yet.

blogtopoid is a blog generator - it takes a bunch of posts, renders them to HTML and saves them to a web directory.

Structure

Work flow:

• take all documents from pagesdir, render them and save them to outputdir/.
• take all posts from inputdir, render and save to outputdir/YYYY/mm/dd/. post filename must be “YYYYMMDD post title.ext”.
• generate index.html linking all posts.
• generate rss feed including all posts.
• generate listing pages for all used tags.
• pack and copy style files from style/ to outputdir/style/.

Post formats

Currently posts and pages can either be markdown2 or reStructuredText.

In posts and pages {{blogurl}} gets replaced with blogurl from config, in style files {{styleurl}} with blogurl/style.

Usage

• pip install –pre blogtopoid
• run blogtopoid –quickstart
• run blogtopoid
• see post-receive.example for automatically deploying from git commits.

TODO

• implement –post
• TEST!
• make a shipable default template
• paginate index (not relevant with current index)
• check hashes
