Getting Started

What you need to get the generator up and running.

Prerequisites

Built using Nix. Nix can be installed with:

curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Dependencies

imagemagick is required for the favicons.

Installing

Compile the generator

nix-build rf.nix

Enter the build environment

nix-shell --pure

Generate the site

./result/site rebuild

And test it out

./result/site watch

The site will now be avaliable at localhost:8000

Deployment

Site will be completely static, so simply point your server to the _site directory

if you edit the values in rfg.sh or notNixOSrfg.sh to point to your git repo, you can run;

nix-shell --pure --run "./rfg.sh"

or

nix-shell --pure --run "./notNixOSrfg.sh"

to automatically build up upload a gopher mirror, such as to work with lain.church

this will also build the http site
