ugh! ==== ugh! is a website generator. Theory of operation ------------------- ### Structure The website source comprises page content files maintained under top-level directory `data/`. Top-level mk(1) targets drive the compilation of website source into output directory `public/`. 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. `.md` source files are compiled to an HTML page by a program `bin/md2html`. In turn, this program passes the markdown source file as a first argument to `bin/filter-markdown` which must produce HTML body content on its standard output. ### Filters `bin/filter-markdown` and other filters (in the future) may be replaced by users to use different processors or perform custom processing. 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 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 pages and files in the `public/` directory. Publish this whichever way you like.
