.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Rivet is a POSIX shell script that relies on
|
||
|
.BR lowdown(1)
|
||
|
to convert markdown ( refer to
|
||
|
.BR lowdown(5)
|
||
|
for more info on the dialect of markdown used and metadata) files to html and
|
||
|
build an output directory which can be uploaded to an http server.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Rivet scans the
|
||
|
.I srcdir/
|
||
|
for markdown files, converts them to html and puts them along with any other
|
||
|
non-markdown files inside the destination directory named
|
||
|
.I dst/
|
||
|
by default. Rivet also generates a section called "Pages" inside the index file
|
||
|
containing links to all other html files along with their names extracted either
|
||
|
from the markdown metadata or the filename and a sitemap used by crawlers and
|
||
|
indexers, that's what the
|
||
|
.I domain
|
||
|
field is used for.
|
||
|
|
||

.SH USAGE
|
||
|
To generate a static website with rivet a source directory must be created first
|
||
|
containing all the website's source files (such as images, scripts,css files,
|
||
|
etc), pages written in markdown (see
|
||
|
.BR lowdown(5)
|
||
|
for the specific dialect and possible metadata) and two special files:
|
||
|
.I _header.html
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.I _footer.html
|
||
|
|
||
|
These files contain all the content that rivet will put inside the header
|
||
|
and footer sections. The only article that's required for a site to be generated
|
||
|
is
|
||
|
.I index.md
|
||
|
that has to be placed at the source directory's root.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
||
|
The minimal source directory tree is:
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
src/
|
||
|
- index.md
|
||
|
- _header.html
|
||
|
- _footer.html
|
||
|
.EE
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Where
|
||
|
.I _footer.html
|
||
|
contains
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
<p> Footer </p>
|
||
|
.EE
|
||
|
And
|
||
|
.I _header.html
|
||
|
contains
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
<p> Header </p>
|
||
|
.EE
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Note that since the contents of
|
||
|
.I _header.html
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.I _footer.html
|
||
|
will be placed inside the correct tags, the files themselves do not need to
|
||
|
contain <header> and <footer> tags (the script removes them)
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
To generate the site from the folder run the command
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
rivet src/ example.com
|
||
|
.EE
|
||
|
And a folder called
|
||
|
.I dst/
|
||
|
will be created with the following contents:
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.EX
|
||
|
dst/
|
||
|
- index.html
|
||
|
- sitemap.xml
|
||
|
