Static site generator
Project description
Stone
Yet another static website generator, with plugin support.
Used by (www|blog).half.systems to convert Markdown and Jinja2 into HTML.
Installation
$ pip install stone-siteUsage
To get started with stone:
# Create template layout
stone example_site init --site-name 'example.com'
# Generate site
stone example_site generate
# Add a new page
stone example_site newpage --name "About Us"By default Stone is configured to turn Markdown + YAML metadata + Jinja2 templates into HTML but as it has support for custom plugins it can generate anything it has code for.
Site Configuration
Configuration File
Stone generates sites based on the contents of site.json. Each site can specify which backends, generators and renderers to use, custom versions will be loaded from the $HOME/.stone directory.
Example
An example project that generates an example landing page and blog is included in Stone’s project source. you can build it by running:
stone example generateFolder Structure
Stone was originally designed to generate the subdomains of half.systems. The following is the layout of the sites:
.
├── blog
│ └── ...
├── main
│ └── ...
├── site.json
└── templates
└── ...site.json is flexiable about the location of templates and files. As such your not constrained to any particular layout for your site. You could have separate template folders inside each site or one shared in the project root. Each site can specify its template directory
Pages
By default pages are Markdown file, that can have optional YAML metadata that describe the attributes of the page including the title and which template to uses. For example:
template: base.html
title: Hello, World
# This is a header
Here is some lovely content.Stone makes all metadata available to page templates. Any data templates may use can be embedded into a page. For exampled: an author’s name, email, the date the page was written. The behaviour is dependent on the generator and renderers used. See the [renderers](docs/renderers.md) and [generators](docs/generators.md) for more details.
Templates
By default templates are HTML pages with jinja2 markup.
base.html:
<html>
<head>
{% block head %}
<title>{{ title }}</title>
{% endblock %}
<head>
<body>
{% block body %}
<h1>{{ title }}</title>
<div id="post">
<!-- Most likely we are going to pass more html here --->
{{ content|safe }}
</div>
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>Generating
