ugh! ==== ugh! is a website generator. Theory of operation ------------------- ### Structure The website source comprises tree structure and page content files maintained under top-level directory `data/`. Top-level mk(1) targets drive the compilation of website source into output directory `public/`. Compilation process can be controlled through configuration files in the `cfg/` directory. The website template is defined by files in the `templates/` directory. The templating engine is rc(1) heredocs—it is rather limited but should be understandable. The default template tries to load `public/css/style.css` stylesheet, which doesn't exist by default. ### Transformation rules Currently supported content files are markdown, html, and raw text. Copies of the source files with `.html`, `.txt`, and `.md` extensions are included verbatim in the output directory. Source files with `.md` extension are filtered through a `bin/mdtohtml` program to produce an HTML body, which is expanded into a page template and stored in a matching `.html` output file. ### Filters Helpers like `bin/mdtohtml` may be modified or replaced by users to select a different underlying filter program, change the configuration, do some advanced processing, and so on. Install ------- Copy this directory to a suitable place and make sure the dependencies are met. ### Dependencies 9front version of `rc(1)` and `mk(1)` are the core dependencies. **NB** Other versions of rc are guaranteed not to work. The default markdown filter `bin/mdtohtml` depends on the [discount(1)](https://github.com/Orc/discount) markdown processor. You can easily change it to something else. Use --- Create some content files in the `data/` directory and run: mk in the top-level directory. This will generate the website files in the `public/` directory. Publish this whichever way you like.
