pagegen

You can see an example output of this program located at: https://www.evildojo.com/pagegen/index.html

A static page generator built on a C-file, some bash scripts, and markdown.

This page is under development, as is the rest of this project.

If you have any questions, contact me on twitter @mbelltech.

Before Use:

1. Run make.
2. Edit style_gajs_header.txt to hold the following:
   • Your style.css
   • Your Google Analytics (or whatever)
   • Your site header (which will show up on every page generated)
3. Edit footer.html to hold your site footer.
4. Create a file that contains, one per line, each keyword you would like to appear in the meta keywords tag.
5. Configure the file b.

PAGESDIR="./pages"
OUTDIR="./test"
INEXT="md" # infile extension
OUTEXT="html" # outfile extension
FOOTERFILE="footer.html" # file containing footer
SITE="evildojo v0.1"
STYLEGAJSHEADER="style_gajs_header.txt"
KEYWORDS="keywords.txt"

6. List the pages that you'd like to build, one per line, excluding output extension (so, just the base filename), in the file pages.txt.
7. Make sure that you have the program pandoc installed on your system.
8. Make sure that you have the program rsync installed on your system.
9. Configure the file up.

FLAGS="-av --progress"
FILES="test/*.html"
USER="user"
SERVER="0.1.2.3"
LOCATION="/home/user/www/."

10. You're good to go!
