gilbert - an overview
Raw
gistfile1.txt
A gilbert project is a directory with 5 sub directories:
- static/
- pages/
- content/
- templates/
- dest/
Upon calling render, the site will:
- create an index of files in static; only referenced files will be copied to the destination
- build a Collection of objects from `content`.
- build a Collection of objects from `pages`.
- render the pages to the destination
Content Objects are YAML files containing descriptions of different content types.
They may contain multiple documents.
The `content_type` key of the YAML document names the class to use.
The system can be extended with many conten types.
The only difference between the `pages` collection and the `content` collection is `pages` will be rendered directly; other content objects are available for use across pages.
# Content Types
DataObject
Simply contains data from the YAML file - nothing more.
Page
- Has a specified `template`
? can 'gather' other content? might require a query syntax...
ScssDocument
- Content is SCSS and will be rendered to a .css file
