Parchemin allows you to create and manage a blog whose contents are not stored in a database but directly in files.
Just run the following command :
gem install parchemin
Install the gem as described above, then run the executable :
parchemin BLOG_NAME AUTHOR_NAME
Any Rack-compliant server can run your newly created blog. For example, run the following command from inside the blog directory :
thin start
Then just add your articles in the articles directory. Parchemin only support Markdown as markup language. So your articles files must have a '.markdown' extension. Don't forget to add a meta-data header at the top of every files you add. For example :
<!-- title : "Lorem ipsum" -->
<!-- created_at : Date.civil(2010, 3, 23) -->
<!-- abstract : "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit...mollit anim id est laborum." -->
<!-- tags : %w(tutorial sinatra) -->
That's all!! You will find some examples in GEM_PATH/bin/articles. For more information, visit http://parchemin.raw1z.fr.
- Fork the project.
- Make your feature addition or bug fix.
- Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
- Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
- Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
