An unambitious static site generator, no magic inside.
Each page's data and template are defined by yourself, and the route is derived by its file path.
WARNING: this project is still under development.
- Lightweight and intuitive
- Write a SSR site like writing a SPA
- SEO friendly
Make sure you have nodejs >= 14.0.0 and npm installed beforehand, then run
npm install --save muggleAll *.tsx file under directory pages will become a HTML file, as long as it default exports a valid preact component
pages/about/index.tsx->about/index.htmlpages/404.tsx->404.html
Use Head from muggle/client to define something in HTML's <head></head> tag:
import { Head } from "muggle/client";
export default () => {
return (
<div>
<Head>
<title>My Page Title!</title>
</Head>
<h1>Hello</h1>
</div>
);
};Define a named export preload with a async function to populate component's prop page
export default ({ page }) => {
return (
<div>
<Head>
<title>My Page Title!</title>
</Head>
<h1>{page}</h1>
</div>
);
};
// will become <h1>Hello</h1> in HTML
export async function preload(fetch) {
return "Hello";
}
// you can fetch() something from Internet hereCodes in preload function should be platform independent, it will be excuted at both server side and client side.
Surround a file or directory's name with bracket to make it a variable:
pages/blog/[post].tsx->blog/first-post.html&blog/second-title.html
You can access the variable's value in the preload function:
// for `pages/blog/[post].tsx`
export async function preload(fetch, params) {
try {
const res = await fetch(`https://xxxx.com/blog/${params.post}`);
return await res.json();
} catch (err) {
return { error: "Not Found" };
}
}Using Link from muggle/client to make links to the site:
import { Head, Link } from "muggle/client";
export default () => {
return (
<div>
<Head>
<title>My Page Title!</title>
</Head>
<div>
<p>
<Link to="/blog/first-post/">First Post</Link>
</p>
<p>
<Link to="/blog/2/">Second Post</Link>
</p>
</div>
</div>
);
};All *.json.ts files under directory apis will become a JSON file, as long as it named exports a get function
apis/blog/list.json.ts->apis/blog/list.json
You can read data from file system, or fetch something from Internet:
import fs from "fs";
import marked from "marked";
export const get = async (req) => {
const path = "/home/xxx/blog/markdowns" + req.path;
// or fetch from Internet
const markdown = await fs.readFile(path, "utf8");
return marked(markdown);
};And you can access it from the preload function:
export async function preload(fetch, params) {
return fetch(`/apis/blog/${params.post}.json`);
}
export default ({ page }) => {
return (
<div>
<Head>
<title>{page.title}</title>
</Head>
<article dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: page.content }}></article>
</div>
);
};Start a dev server, using npm script to run
muggle serve
Generate HTML files:
muggle build
