From 15b871806b5ceb0a1c6f563e02c1ef79ee761412 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vincent Ambo Date: Sat, 8 Feb 2020 13:33:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] feat(web/blog): Add Nix-based static blog generator This introduces a derivation which builds an instance of nginx statically serving my blog posts, though as of now no indexes are being generated and no XML feed is available. This is just the initial draft of this setup and not yet what shall be yielded in the end. --- ci-builds.nix | 1 + web/blog/.skip-subtree | 1 + web/blog/default.nix | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++ web/blog/fragments.nix | 81 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ web/blog/nginx.nix | 68 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ web/blog/static/blog.css | 35 +++++++++++++++++ 6 files changed, 232 insertions(+) create mode 100644 web/blog/.skip-subtree create mode 100644 web/blog/default.nix create mode 100644 web/blog/fragments.nix create mode 100644 web/blog/nginx.nix create mode 100644 web/blog/static/blog.css diff --git a/ci-builds.nix b/ci-builds.nix index d29edac43..54d6f637a 100644 --- a/ci-builds.nix +++ b/ci-builds.nix @@ -18,6 +18,7 @@ in with pkgs; [ tools.blog_cli tools.cheddar tools.emacs + web.blog web.cgit-taz lisp.dns third_party.cgit diff --git a/web/blog/.skip-subtree b/web/blog/.skip-subtree new file mode 100644 index 000000000..e7fa50d49 --- /dev/null +++ b/web/blog/.skip-subtree @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +Subdirectories contain blog posts and static assets only diff --git a/web/blog/default.nix b/web/blog/default.nix new file mode 100644 index 000000000..bc7b9666f --- /dev/null +++ b/web/blog/default.nix @@ -0,0 +1,46 @@ +# This creates the static files that make up my blog from the Markdown +# files in this repository. +# +# All blog posts are rendered from Markdown by cheddar. +{ pkgs, lib, ... }@args: + +with pkgs.nix.yants; + +let + # Type definition for a single blog post. + post = struct "blog-post" { + key = string; # + title = string; + date = string; # *sigh* + + # Path to the Markdown file containing the post content. + content = path; + + # Should this post be included in the index?
