Gemican

Gemican is a static gemini capsule generator, written in Python, and based on the static site generator Pelican.

  • Write content in Markdown or directly in Gemtext using your editor of choice
  • Includes a simple command line tool to (re)generate capsule files
  • Easy to interface with version control systems and web hooks
  • Completely static output is simple to host anywhere

Features

Gemican’s feature highlights include:

  • Chronological content (e.g., articles, blog posts) as well as static pages
  • Site themes (created using Jinja2_ templates)
  • Publication of articles in multiple languages
  • Generation of Atom and RSS feeds
  • Import existing content from WordPress, Dotclear, or RSS feeds
  • Fast rebuild times due to content caching and selective output writing

Check out Gemican's documentation for further information.

Gemican's source code is hosted on GitHub. If you feel like hacking, take a look at Pelican's internals.

Why the name "Gemican"?

"Gemican" is an anagram of camegin, which means nothing.

Only joking - Gemican is based on the Pelican static site generator, and took its name from that.
