To install:
|
|
|
|
|
1. put it wherever you want and just add it to path
|
|
|
|
|
2. make sure you modify `make_globals()` and `build_entries()` in the script to
|
|
|
|
|
customize it to your gemlog.

To use:

|
|
|
1. Write your post in .gmi format. The first header of any level on the page
|
2020-09-10 05:10:19 +00:00
|
|
|
will be used as a title (it doesn't have to be on the first line). The
|
|
|
|
|
script will detect any .gmi files that start with a number and assume
|
|
|
|
|
they're blog posts. It'll display them in reverse alphabetical order, so I
|
|
|
|
|
recommend to name your files like `YYYY-MM-DD.gmi` or
|
|
|
|
|
`YYYY-MM-DD-title-here.gmi` so you get them sorted nicely in reverse
|
|
|
|
|
chronological order.

|
|
|
2. make sure you're in your gemlog directory then run `gemlog.sh` to build the
|
2020-09-10 05:10:19 +00:00
|
|
|
index page and the atom feed
|

|
|
|
3. if you want your atom feed to be accessible over the web as well as gemini,
|
2020-09-10 05:10:19 +00:00
|
|
|
symlink the atom.xml file to your web server directory
