muon ==== Muon is a static blog generator, meaning that it takes files written in convenient markup and converts it to HTML and CSS ready to deploy to a web server. Installing ---------- First, install the package by getting the darcs repo. $ darcs get http://repos.kaashif.co.uk/muon You can install it using cabal, which you should have installed. $ cd muon $ cabal install After that, assuming you have configured cabal and/or your PATH correctly, muon should be usable. Here are some things you may want to do: Using Muon ---------- Initialising a blog: $ mkdir new-blog $ cd new-blog $ muon init Writing a post: $ vi posts/new.post Regenerating the site, creating a tree of files in the ./site directory. $ muon generate Notes ----- When writing posts, make sure you put the title on the first line, the date on the second, and a short description (for the archive) on the third line. The rest should be valid Markdown. See the posts/ directory after site initialisation for some examples. The posts are ordered lexicographically, _not_ by date. This means "aaa.post" will always come before "bbb.post", regardless of the date contained in the file. "muon upload" is currently hardcoded. Stay tuned for per-blog config files.
