Gatsby Lumen Post Generator

The Lumen post generator is a simple skeleton generator that will add a new post to your lumen blog and automate the directory structure creation and much of the frontmatter creation.

simply run yarn lumen-post and pass it the desired options. alternatively, if your an npm fan add "lumen-post": "lumen-post", to your package.json scripts.

Options are added using key="value" at the commandline. Only the title option is required. Available options are as follows:

• title (required)
• category (or just cat)
• description (or just desc)
• tags (comma seperated list)

Example:

yarn lumen-post title="My First Generated Post" category="General Interest" desc="This is just a throw away blogpost I'm creating to demonstrate the post generator" tags=new,cool,wow,easy

this creates the directory: src/pages/articles/2018-02-11---My-First-Generated-Post containing an index.md file refilled with all the front matter you entered, with draft mode enabled so you don't accidentally add a new post to your website before its ready.

your fresh index.md should look something like this:

---
title: "My First Generated Post"
date: "2018-02-12T00:08:01.358Z"
layout: post
draft: true
path: "/posts/my-first-generated-post/"
category: ""
tags:
  - "new"
  - "cool"
  - "wow"
  - "easy"
description: "This is just a throw away blogpost I'm creating to demonstrate the post generator"
