go-vite
-------

A fast (this time, actually) and minimal static site generator.

NOTE: At this point, a lot of this code is heavily tailored towards my
own site.


INSTALLING

Clone this repository and run

    $ make
    # make install

Requires `go` to be installed, obviously.


USAGE

    vite [options]

    A simple and minimal static site generator.

    options:
        init PATH       create vite project at PATH
        build           builds the current project
        new PATH        create a new markdown post


CONFIGURATION

vite expects a config.yaml file to exist in the project root.  You can
refer https://git.icyphox.sh/site/tree/config.yaml for an example
containing all possible keys.


TEMPLATING

vite uses Go templating[2], and exposes two structure instances for
rendering stuff in your template: `Cfg` and `Fm`, defined like so:

    // Cfg
    struct {
    	Title        string            `yaml:"title"`
    	Header       string            `yaml:"header"`
    	DateFmt      string            `yaml:"datefmt"`
    	SiteURL      string            `yaml:"siteurl"`
    	Description  string            `yaml:"description"`
    	Author       map[string]string `yaml:"author"`
    	Footer       string            `yaml:"footer"`
    	Prebuild     []string          `yaml:"prebuild"`
    	Postbuild    []string          `yaml:"postbuild"`
    	RSSPrefixURL string            `yaml:"rssprefixurl"`
    }

    // Fm
    struct {
        Template string
        URL      string
        Title    string
        Subtitle string
        Date     string
        Body     string
    }

For an example, refer https://git.icyphox.sh/site/tree/templates


FEEDS

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