# cleberg.net
This repository holds the files for [cleberg.net](https://cleberg.net),
a static-site with blog posts, personal links, and more.
This site uses [weblorg](https://github.com/emacs-love/weblorg) to build
the static site, which relies on
[emacs](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/).
## Site Structure
I write content pages (e.g., blog posts) in org-mode and templates in
HTML. I use Weblorg to build these files into a static site, and then
deploy them to a web server.
The main site components are:
- Org source files containing content, including blog posts and pages.
- A configuration file (`publish.el`) that specifies publishing
parameters like base URL, output directories, and export options.
- Assets such as images and style sheets, located in designated
subdirectories.
- Utility scripts (e.g., `build.py`) to facilitate building and
deployment.
## Dependencies
The publishing system depends on:
- Emacs text editor with Org-Mode.
- The weblorg package, available at
[emacs-love/weblorg](https://github.com/emacs-love/weblorg), which
provides advanced Org publishing functionality and theming support.
## Configuration
You can customize site settings can within the `publish.el` file. This
file establishes key variables such as:
- The base URL for links.
- Output directories.
- Publishing rules to define which files to convert and how.
- Theme settings managed by weblorg.
Users intending to modify site parameters should review and edit this
file accordingly. The weblorg documentation contains extensive details
on configuration options and expected formats.
## Setup Instructions
To obtain a working copy of this repository, execute the following
commands within a shell environment or Emacs shell interface:
``` shell
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~ccleberg/cleberg.net
cd cleberg.net
emacs -nw
```
For users employing Doom Emacs, open any repository Org file using
`SPC f f` to access the content.
## Building and Publishing the Site
The publishing process involves invoking Emacs with the `publish.el`
script, which performs the export of Org documents to HTML output.
Configure the environment variable `ENV` as follows:
- If you set `ENV` to `prod`, the script uses production base URL
settings as defined in `publish.el`.
- If you do not set `ENV` or set it differently, the script defaults to
development settings, typically using `localhost:8000` as the base
URL.
Example commands to build the site:
``` shell
# Production build:
ENV=prod emacs --script publish.el
# Development build:
emacs --script publish.el
```
Generated site files reside in the designated output directory, ready
for deployment. You can deploy the resulting static site files via
standard file transfer protocols such as `scp` or SFTP.
The `build.py` script automates the build process. You can execute this
script with or without the `ENV` variable to perform production or
development builds respectively.
``` shell
# Production build script:
ENV=prod uv run build.py
# Development build script:
uv run build.py
```
## Creating New Blog Posts
To add new blog content, follow this procedure within Emacs:
1. Open a new Org file (via `C-x C-f` or Doom\'s `SPC f f`).
2. Insert the contents of the post template with `C-x i`, sourcing from
`utils/template.org`.
3. Modify the new file as needed to add post content and metadata.
This method streamlines content creation by reusing a preformatted
template.
