haxala1r / site-generator

A static site generator that can create HTML and CSS code from a template written in Lisp and content written in Markdown.

What is this?

This project (haven't decided on a name yet...) is a static website generator. It generates HTML code from the combination of some Common Lisp markup and a usable but incomplete (as of yet) subset of Markdown.

More info

You can check out this page for more info.

How to build

Load the build.lisp program using your favourite Common Lisp implementation (note that I have only tested using SBCL and ECL). This should generate an executable named site-generator in the current directory.

How to use

Invoke the generated executable through a shell, like so:

./site-generator <template-file> {one or more markdown files...}

This will generate an html file corresponding to each markdown file supplied. The generated HTML depends on the template and the markdown file.
