UNKNOWN
Project description
Since the world needs more static site generators ([it](http://nanoc.ws/about/#similar-projects) [doesn’t](https://gist.github.com/2254924)), I built one. It’s not “all things for all people”. Not a [747](https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll), just a tiny [ultralight](http://www.homebuiltairplanes.com/forums/attachments/light-stuff-area/1382d1204108895-need-free-ultralight-plans-guidance-spratt103_cote_droit.jpg) to automate some things.
Its goals are simple:
Maintain a list of finished posts & unfinished ideas
Render finished posts into an HTML template
Do as little else as possible
The script is altogether ≈130 lines of Python code, and probably won’t ever be much larger (hopefully I’ll cut it down some). I chose [markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/basics) formatting, and [Jinja2](http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/) for templating, and S3 for deployment.
I’m calling it unn because naming things is hard.
Invoked from the command line, it knows how to do 3 things:
unn idea post-slug - start a new draft called “post-slug”
unn build - convert “published” files into an HTML site
unn deploy - deploy the site to S3 (& build it first)
To “publish” a post, I simply move the file from /ideas into /posts, and run unn deploy
It’s not perfect, but it does the job. Feel free to open a PR for improvements.
