Niklas Fasching 30dd2794cf Introduce blorg: MVP static site generator
hugo is nice - but it's huge. I've never built a static site generator before
and thought the world could use one more - it's not like there's already enough
choice out there!

No, but seriously. I love hugo and it has all the bells and whistles and you
should definitely use that and not this. I just like reinventing the wheel to
learn about stuff - and I like the 80/20 rule. This gives like 60% of what I
want already and is tiny fraction of hugo in terms of LOC (hugo without it's
bazillion dependencies is like 80k+ - this is like 500 and very likely won't
ever grow above let's say 5k).

Also org mode is awesome and why not use it as a configuration format as
well. Let's see where this goes. YOLO.

An Org mode parser in go. And soon a blog generator. Take a look at github pages for some examples and to try it out live in your browser. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/niklasfasching/go-org/master/etc/example.png Please note

  • the goal for the html export is to produce sensible html output, not to exactly reproduce the output of org-html-export.
  • the goal for the parser is to support a reasonable subset of Org mode. Org mode is huge and I like to follow the 80/20 rule.

usage

command line

go-org

as a library

see main.go and hugo org/convert.go

development

  1. make setup install
  2. change things
  3. make preview (regenerates fixtures & shows output in a browser)

in general, have a look at the Makefile - it's short enough.
