# dg-x

Static site build system for [datagirl.xyz](https://datagirl.xyz).

## Dependencies

build.pl uses the following modules:

* Cwd
* File::Copy::Recursive
* File::Path
* File::Slurp
* Text::FrontMatter::YAML
* Text::MultiMarkdown
* Text::Template

ptouch.pl uses the following modules:

* Tie::File
* Getopt::Std

## How to use

Make an initial directory with the following structure:

* site_dir/
  * posts/
  * pages/ - Templated pages
  * assets/ - Static assets
  * templates/ - Templates you can call with `include_tmpl`

Either clone this repository to site_dir/scripts/, or add this
repository as a git submodule.

To make a new post, create a file with the following format in the
posts/ folder:

```
title=Your blog title
desc=[Not yet implemented] Description for the RSS feed
---
This is some content.

## About this content
Markdown is supported.
```

There is no set schema for tags, so you can put whatever you want as
a tag. However, it may not be used by the build script.

Once you're happy with your post, use the ptouch script to set the
created tag:

```
$ ./scripts/ptouch.pl -n posts/your_new_post
```

And then compile the site:

```
$ ./scripts/build.pl
```

The site can then be pushed with rsync, sftp, netcat, etc.
