pyssgen

pyssgen is a lightweight alternative to hugo and other static site generators. I used it to build my static blog and included the templates and css that I use along with it.

Please note that it's only a side project and might not be suitable for bigger websites.

Installation

via pip

>>> pip install --user pyssgen

via git

git clone https://github.com/ken-soares/pyssgen.git
pip install -r requirements.txt
chmod +x pyssgen/pyssgen/pyssgen.py

Usage

if installed with pip

>>> python3 -m pyssgen <input-dir> <output-dir> (optional: <templates-dir>)

if installed with git

cd path/to/pyssgen
./pyssgen.py <input-dir> <output-dir> (optional: <templates-dir>)
