Blog Generator - my own static site generator

Write in Markdown, publish in HTML.

I'm GeraBlog Image created by https://robohash.org/

Rules

  • The texts must be written in markdown.
  • The first line of file will be the post title # mark.
  • The second line is a blank line.
  • The third line will be the description of text, with ## mark. Will be in meta description of generated html.
  • The filename MUST begin with a date: 2016-12-31-this-is-a-post.md.
  • The texts must be in a subdirectory of texts. Each subdirectory will be assigned a category.
  • Change the layout by changing files in templates dir, which uses Tenjin as template system.
  • JS and CSS files put in assets/{css, js}.
  • The images used in the posts should be placed in a images subdirectory, within the category directory: texts/ruby/images/pinkpanter.jpg. In the post, put the reference as ![Pink Panter](images/pinkpanter.jpg).
  • Images used in posts MUST be placed in the same levelCATEGORY/images.
  • By default, GeraBlog uses prism to highlight the syntax of the codes. The language indicated will be the category in which the text is. For example, the file ruby/2016-12-31-ruby-rocks.md if it has some source code, it will be marked as lang-ruby.

Sample text:

# This is the title
