# Gutenberg
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/Keats/gutenberg)
|
|
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Keats/gutenberg/branch/master)
|
|
|
|
An opinionated static site generator written in Rust.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
You can get the latest release by going to the [Release page](https://..).
|
|
Alternatively, if you have the rust toolchain on your computer, you can also install it
|
|
through Cargo: `cargo install gutenberg`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Creating a new site
|
|
Use `gutenberg init <a_directory_name>`.
|
|
This will create a folder with the name given and the base structure of a gutenberg site.
|
|
|
|
### Working on a site
|
|
Use `gutenberg serve` to spin up a server that will automatically live reload any changes to the
|
|
content, templates or static files.
|
|
|
|
### Building a site
|
|
Use `gutenberg build` to generate the site in the `public/` directory.
|
|
|
|
### Gutenberg terms
|
|
Some words are going to be repeated in the docs so let's make sure they are clear.
|
|
|
|
- Page: a markdown file in the `content` directory that has a name different from `_index.md`
|
|
- Section: a group of pages in the `content` directory that has `_index.md` in the same folder
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
Configuration is using the [TOML](https://github.com/toml-lang/toml) language.
|
|
Only 2 parameters are required: `title` and `base_url`.
|
|
The other options are:
|
|
|
|
- `highlight_code`: Whether to highlight all code blocks found in markdown files. Defaults to false
|
|
- `highlight_theme`: Which themes to use for code highlighting. Defaults to "base16-ocean-dark"
|
|
- `language_code`: The language used in the site. Defaults to "en"
|
|
- `generate_rss`: Whether to generate RSS, defaults to false
|
|
- `generate_tags_pages`: Whether to generate tags and individual tag pages if some pages have them. Defaults to true
|
|
- `generate_categories_pages`: Whether to generate categories and individual category categories if some pages have them. Defaults to true
|
|
|
|
If you want to add some of your own variables, you will need to put them in the `[extra]` table in `config.toml` or
|
|
they will be silently ignored.
|
|
|
|
### Templates
|
|
Templates live in the `templates/` directory.
|
|
Only [Tera](https://github.com/Keats/tera) templates are supported.
|
|
|
|
Each kind of page get their own variables:
|
|
|
|
// TODO: detail the schema of the variables
|
|
|
|
- index.html: gets `pages` that contain all pages in the site
|
|
- page.html: gets `page` that contains the data for that page
|
|
- section.html: gets `section` that contains the data for pages in it and its subsections
|
|
- tags.html: gets `tags`
|
|
- tag.html: gets `tag` and `pages`
|
|
- categories.html: gets `categories`
|
|
- category.html: gets `category` and `pages`
|
|
|
|
Additionally, all pages get a `config` variable representing the data in `config.toml`.
|
|
If you want to know all the data present in a template content, simply put `{{ __tera_context }}`
|
|
in the templates and it will print it.
|
|
|
|
### Static files
|
|
Everything in the `static` folder will be copied into the output directory as-is.
|
|
|
|
### Pages
|
|
Pages have to start with a front-matter enclosed in `+++`. Here is a minimal example:
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
+++
|
|
title = "My page"
|
|
description = "Some meta info"
|
|
+++
|
|
|
|
A simple page with fixed url
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A front-matter requires a title, a description and has the following optional variables:
|
|
|
|
- date: a YYYY-MM-DD or RFC339 formatted date
|
|
- slug: what slug to use in the url
|
|
- url: this overrides the slug and make this page accessible at `{config.base_url}/{url}`
|
|
- tags: an array of strings
|
|
- category: only one category is allowed
|
|
- draft: whether the post is a draft or not
|
|
- template: if you want to change the template used to render that specific page
|
|
|
|
You can also, like in the config, add your own variables in a `[extra]` table.
|
|
The front-matter will be accessible in templates at the `page.meta` field.
|
|
|
|
By default, the URL of a page will follow the filesystem paths. For example, if you have
|
|
a page at `content/posts/python3.md`, it will be available at `{config.base_url}/posts/python3/`.
|
|
You can override the slug created from the filename by setting the `slug` variable in the front-matter.
|
|
|
|
Quite often, a page will have assets and you might want to co-locate them with the markdown file.
|
|
Gutenberg supports that pattern out of the box: you can create a folder, put a file named `index.md` and any number of files
|
|
along with it that are NOT markdown.
|
|
Those assets will be copied in the same folder when building so you can just use a relative path to use them.
|
|
|
|
### Sections
|
|
Sections represent a group of pages, for example a `tutorials` section of your site.
|
|
Sections are only created in Gutenberg when a file named `_index.md` is found in the `content` directory.
|
|
|
|
This `_index.md` file needs to include a front-matter as well, but won't have content:
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
+++
|
|
title = "Tutorials"
|
|
description = ""
|
|
+++
|
|
```
|
|
Both `title` and `description` are mandatory, you can also set the `template` variable to change
|
|
which template will be used to render that section.
|
|
|
|
Sections will also automatically pick up their subsections, allowing you to make some complex pages layout and
|
|
table of contents.
|
|
|
|
### Code highlighting themes
|
|
Code highlighting can be turned on by setting `highlight_code = true` in `config.toml`.
|
|
|
|
When turned on, all text between backticks will be highlighted, like the example below.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let site = Site::new();
|
|
```
|
|
If the name of the language is not given, it will default to plain-text highlighting.
|
|
|
|
Gutenberg uses Sublime Text themes for syntax highlighting. It comes with the following theme
|
|
built-in:
|
|
|
|
- base16-ocean-dark
|
|
- base16-ocean-light
|
|
- gruvbox-dark
|
|
- gruvbox-light
|
|
- inspired-github
|
|
- kronuz
|
|
- material-dark
|
|
- material-light
|
|
- monokai
|
|
- solarized-dark
|
|
- solarized-light
|
|
|
|

|
More themes can be easily added to gutenberg, just make a PR with the wanted theme.
