Static site generator plugins all the way down.

Project description


Markata

Markdown and Data, plugins all the way down

Example

Here is markata creating my personal site of several hundred pages in ~16s.

Here is markata doing a near instant with a fresh cache.

I am still learning what this will be. Code is completely in develop branch and likely to change significantly.

Motivation

I want a simple static site generator built off of plugins that are super easy to create, and intuitive to use. I want to create content in markdown and not have to put much thought into seo meta tags or generating og images. The final site should be lightweight, and not weighed down heavily with MB's of unused css/js.

⚡ Fast enough site generation

🔌 Pluggable

🧠 Intuitive

🐍 Familiar language

🖼 OG:image out of the box

🎯 SEO out of the box

Using Markata

The docs are still a work in progress, but the [base_cli](https://markata.dev/markata/plugins/base_cli/) walks through how to effectively use the markata build command. At this point Markata is far from stable and will change quite a bit, should you choose to use it on real site make sure you pin to the version that you want to build from. I will let you know as it becomes more stable and ready to use without diligence of pinning to the version you want.

Honestly A big motivation for me was wanting to learn and understand how to create a project that is completely plugin driven. This is highly a learning project for me, and it has grown into something I use each and every day.

Development

Currently everything is on the develop branch. As its still a heavy work in progress and likely to change significantly.

Examples Gallary

Markata.dev

Yes, markata builds its own docs

Home page, created with index.md

base_cli plugin documentation generated with the docs plugin

WaylonWalker.com

Waylonwalker.com is created completely through markata

Post Page

archive page created through custom plugin

images.WaylonWalker.com

Waylonwalker.com currently has the built in cover image pluugin disabled for quick builds as it it a constantly evolving site with a lot of posts. The cover images are generated in a second repo by loading article data in from markata.json and running the covers plugin.
