gen

Work in Progress: gen is not finished and has many, many rough edges. I don't know when gen will be finished. Maybe never.

gen is an another static site generator.

Getting Started

1. Install gen if you haven't yet.

2. Create a new site:

    $ gen new mysite
   

3. Change directory to mysite, build and serve the site locally:

    $ cd mysite
    $ gen build
    $ gen server
   

   Run with --help or -h for options.

4. Go to http://localhost:3000.

Installation

From binary

Download the precompiled binary from releases page.

From source

1. Install Go 1.14 if you haven't yet.

2. Two installation options are supported:

   • Install with go get:

      $ pushd $(mktemp -d); go mod init tmp; go get go.astrophena.me/gen; popd
     

     go get puts binaries by default to $GOPATH/bin (e.g. ~/go/bin).

     Use GOBIN environment variable to change this behavior.

   • Install with make:

      $ git clone https://github.com/astrophena/gen
      $ cd gen
      $ make install
     

     make install installs gen by default to $HOME/.local/bin.

     Use PREFIX environment variable to change this behavior:

      $ make install PREFIX="$HOME" # Installs to $HOME/bin.
