uncanny v0.2.3

uncanny.js

Generate/compile static files based on file extension. Operates primarily off of config.json in the main directory as such:

{
  "source": "/home/coolguy/blog",
  "target": "/var/www/coolguysblog"
}

If they don't already exist, the following directories will be created in both source and target:

• blogs/
• styles/
• scripts/
• templates/

Whenever a file is updated in source, the corresponding file will be updated in target.

The blogs/ directory accepts:

• 2015-10-21-blog-name.md parsed as Markdown using marked into HTML (named as .htm). The timestamp at the beginning will be used as the date of the post, if a md file is saved in the source/blogs/ directory without a timestamp, uncanny will attempt to rename it to work.

• layout.ejs used to render every blog post into HTML, so you can make it pretty. Output will be target/blog-name.html. Available to the layout is the standard uncanny object as well as a blog object that contains:

  • year: year of the post,
  • month: month of the post,
  • day: numerical day of the post,
  • name: name of blog (with dashes),
  • title: title of the blog (generated),
  • target: location of the file,
  • content: Markdown-parsed content,
  • source: filename of original blog

The templates/ directory accepts:

• .ejs parsed as ejs using ejs' official node module. Each template is passed the uncanny object containing:

  • version: current running version of uncanny
  • scripts, styles, templates: arrays of filenames from within corresponding directories.
  • blogs: array of blog objects as described above

The scripts/ directory accepts:

• File extensions appended with .min such as .min.js will be run through UglifyJS before being placed in the target.

The styles/ directory accepts:

• .styl parsed as stylus using stylus' official node module into CSS.

• File extensions appended with .min such as .min.styl or .min.css will be run through Sqwish before being placed in the target.

Further configuration options include:

• syncOnInit to compile and copy all files from the source directory into the target on startup. Default is false.
• watchDotFile to watch and compile dotfiles.
• customDirs an array of additional directories to watch and sync. Currently, files synced via the customDirs config option are not mutated in any way.
• ignoreCase to allow for case-insensitive extensions, default is false.
• optimizeImages to run smush against images in the images/ directory. Default is false
• run with uncanny --watch to persist and watch directories.
