static site generator written in rust

pagebuild

This is a static site generator written in rust.

How to run:

Run this by building the executable and running:
pagebuild "path_to_text-src" "path_to_html_files"
Flags: --verbose for full output

What this needs:

• A directory that contains the website
• In there, a folder "text-src", containing:
  • your desired pages as markdown files
  • a template.html file. The text {{Content}} in the template file will be replaced with your content, gererated from the markdown files
  • optionally a components.html file. The format is documented in examples/text-src/components.html/. Components allow easy reuse of specific html or markdown snippets.

Your .html files will be saved to path_to_html_files/*.html, so resources like stylesheets are referenced from there and not from the /text-src/ folder. The example website outputs a few errors regarding components intentionally.

pagebuild's Issues

Execution Failure On Linux Systems

Regardless of passed path, on Linux this program fails to execute because the supplied directory "does not exist".
