My personal static blog generator powered by Flask & Frozen-Flask

My blog

This is the whole code and contents of my personal weblog, open sourced.

Basically it's a static website builder/generator based on Python, Flask, Frozen-Flask and cool other bricks.

Read more about the technical concepts behind the code.

Installation

Note: you need a working installation of Python and pip.

$ git co https://github.com/n1k0/nicolas.perriault.net.git
$ cd nicolas.perriault.net
$ virtualenv --no-site-packages `pwd`/env
$ source env/bin/activate
(env)$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Deploying

Don't deploy this as is. It's my personal weblog, remember? The code has been opensourced for educational purpose only.

Also, see the License section of this document for more information about contents copyright.

Usage

The site exec at the root of the repository is the only command you'll need to call to make this whole crap work:

To serve the website locally (optionaly in DEBUG=True mode):

$ ./site serve --debug
* Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/
* Restarting with reloader

This is useful when you want to see changes without having to rebuild the whole suite.

To build the static website:

$ ./site build

Generated HTML files and assets will go to the ./build/ directory.

To deploy the website (caveat: my server address is harcoded ^^):

$ ./site deploy

There's also two commands for creating new posts and add new photos:

$ ./site post code --title="My title"
Created /Users/niko/Sites/nperriault/pages/code/2012/my-title.md
$ cat pages/code/2012/my-title.md
title: My title
date: 2012-10-05
published: false

Same for the ./site photo command.

Supplementary Caveats

• It's up to you not being a dick with all of this, but I'm confident with that.
• This code won't especially be maintained for other purpose than my own needs.
