gitpub v0.1.0

gitpub

An experimental publishing tool that takes incoming http requests, authorizes them and then turns them into static files inside a remote git repository for later consumption by a static site generator running in a gh-pages like environment or a dynamic web app that renders content from static files on disk.

It currently works but generates an inflexible Jekyll post file in a specific location in a repository and is undocumented!

Currently Working

• micropub (posting)
• Simple File handling for small files in git.
• Support for a simple jekyll post schema.

Active Development

• Breaking down into small modules:
  • https://www.npmjs.com/package/quick-gits
  • https://www.npmjs.com/package/bepo

On the table:

• Documentation: Micropub is still a baby.
• Work out all the kinks.
• Testing
• Example Jekyll Template.

Future plans:

• micropub (editing)

• Support for arbitrary post templates and schema.
• Flexible pathing.
• Static Site Generator Agnostic
