36TEMPLATING
37
38vite uses Go templating[2], and exposes two structure instances for
39rendering stuff in your template: `Cfg` and `Fm`, defined like so:
40
41    // Cfg
42    struct {
43    	Title        string            `yaml:"title"`
44    	Header       string            `yaml:"header"`
45    	DateFmt      string            `yaml:"datefmt"`
46    	SiteURL      string            `yaml:"siteurl"`
47    	Description  string            `yaml:"description"`
48    	Author       map[string]string `yaml:"author"`
49    	Footer       string            `yaml:"footer"`
50    	Prebuild     []string          `yaml:"prebuild"`
51    	Postbuild    []string          `yaml:"postbuild"`
52    	RSSPrefixURL string            `yaml:"rssprefixurl"`
53    }   
54
55    // Fm
56    struct {
57        Template string
58        URL      string
59        Title    string
60        Subtitle string
61        Date     string
62        Body     string
63    }

68FEEDS
69
70vite generates Atom feeds for all documents under the `pages/blog/`
71directory.  I plan to add generation for arbitrary directories, with
72ability to configure the feed file name (defaults to feed.xml right
73now).
