Statocles - A static site generator
version 0.006
Statocles is a tool for building static HTML pages from documents.
A document is a data structure. The default store reads documents in a combined YAML and Markdown format.
Documents are formatted with a YAML document on top, and Markdown content on the bottom, like so:
--- title: This is a title author: preaction --- # This is the markdown content This is a paragraph
This is the same format that http://jekyllrb.com|Jekyll uses.
A page is rendered HTML ready to be sent to a user.
An application takes a bunch of documents and turns them into HTML pages.
A simple blogging application.
A site manages a bunch of applications, writing and deploying the resulting pages.
Deploying the site may involve a simple file copy, but it could also involve a Git repository, an FTP site, or a database.
A store reads and writes documents and pages. The default store reads documents in YAML and writes pages to a file, but stores could read documents as JSON, or from a Mongo database, and write pages to a database, or whereever you want!
