# bob
Bob is a small static generator, for those who wants to maintain a personal
website or blog, all from the command line.
## Installation
It only is designed in bash script, and should work perfectly fine on any Unix
like machine.
```
git clone https://git.simonpetit.top
cd bob
sudo make install
```
## Usage
To write a post, create a markdown file in the `drafts` folder whose name will
also be its title, and convert it to an html file, type the following command
from the root :
```
bob publish
```
The publishing command will rep-ublish all the drafts, that is why
anytime you want a post removed, delete in from the drafts folder and re-publish
your blog.
See the help for additional command, such as modification of the main configuration
of the blog.
```
bob help
```
## TODO
* Make a proper header/footer for the posts (e.g. adding links to social networks
such as tweeter, github, dev.to ...).
* Complete the CSS files.
* Add a comment/like section ?
* Adding a git component, and a server configuration to allow synchronisation.
Maybe the drafts folder on the personal computer triggers changes on the git
repo of the server which re-publishes the blog automatically.
* Add a way to do all the construction of the blog on the personal computer but
to send the html files to a distant server.
* Consider adding configuration files for some/all posts (if they
need special javascript included e.g. MathJax, AJAX, sockets ...).
* Add a preview function for TRUE drafts being written
* Take into account the headers possibilities of multimarkdown, which could
replace the self header writing process and include other features such as
Mathjax
