Overview ¶
Command nothugo is a basic static site generator, taking *.md files as its input. Its main focus is simplicity and not getting in a way of existing file hierarchies.
Usage: nothugo [flags] [mode]
Modes are:
render:
In this mode program recursively walks input directory (-src), renders *.md files to HTML, writing result to the output directory (-dst), keeping the same file tree structure. Files with names that don't match *.md pattern are either hard-linked (if possible), or copied to the destination directory. Non-regular files, or files/directories with names starting with "." (unix hidden) are skipped.
serve:
In this mode program starts basic HTTP server (-addr) serving static files from the output directory (-dst). It is not the only way to serve generated content, this can be done with any web server. Most useful for local previews.
example:
In this mode program generates example content in the input (-src) and templates (-templates) directories. It is best used to create scaffolding for a new project or get a sense on how this tool works. As a precaution it refuses to overwrite existing files.
