PyBlog v0.1

Python3 weblog site generator script -- Single script to create and manage a blog using only python and text files

I intend to redo bashblog (github.com/the8woodcutter/bashblog) in python to do essentially the same thing

  • Author: the8woodcutter || my XMPP || XMPP room
  • Licence: DO NOT COPY (until licence decided)

Ideas

  • I've decided to make a REDO not a REWRITE as if rewriting is more like copying bashblog code methods (1 for 1 even?), and redoing is copying end result
  • Additional feature ideas include a profile self object with variables and avatar (optionally gravatar is an option) for personification,
    • Editable CSS blocks for seperation of spacing, colors, text, block objects, etc OPTIONAL
    • Templates segmented more, include javascript, metadata, css, header, nav, body, footer, javascript_head and javascript_footer blocks OPTIONAL
    • An attempt of simple to read script and simple function structure
    • Simple seperation from default (easy/simpler) stuff and more involved stuff; perhaps a first run function? !Python not to install packages!
    • RSS automagic using lists that reuses data for twtxt.txt, twtxt.txt we want to maybe use yarn.social extensions? Webhooks! APIs! LoL :D
    • Use of python for ANYTHING functional but when used as a script
  • More to come

TODO:

  • next/first python function will be 'what do we do with .config?'
    • do we parse it ... like a class and import it/?!?! <<<<<---
    • anytime we need "key: value" it's imported and referable
  • the REAL next thing we do is... decide what page types, ie: main index, tags, categories, profile, post index, rss index, etc
    • make drawing of the blog intended structure 0-100% (filling things in as we go)
