# How this site came to be
## Tech
The """"tech-stack"""" for this site is [pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) and a single shell script.
Ok, technically there's also the issue about python but really you don't need to use it since the site pages build anyways.
Yea so here's the shell(bash) script.
I'm going to remove any bashisms soon enough but am very lazy so this is the best I got for ya.
```
#!/bin/bash
rootDir='./site/'
targetDir='post/'
post() {
echo Building: $1
tmp=".swap"
full=".fullswap"
base=`basename $1`
# First build the content of the site
pandoc $1 > $tmp
# Title, images and tables get added/fixed here
sed "s/{TITLE}/<title>${base%.*}<\/title>/g" ./templates/post-header.html > $full
cat $tmp ./templates/post-footer.html >> $full
sed -i 's/<img/<img class="pure-img"/g;s/<table>/<table class="pure-table">/g' $full
# Move things to proper directory and cleanup
mv $full "$rootDir/$targetDir/${base%.*}.html"
rm -f $tmp
}
build_all() {
mkdir -p $rootDir/post/ $rootDir/fonts/ $rootDir/media/img/
cp style.css "$rootDir"
cp prebuild/post/style.css "$rootDir/post/"
cp fonts/* $rootDir/fonts/
cp img/ $rootDir/media/img/ -r
mv $rootDir/media/img/favicon.png $rootDir/
# Try to get xargs to deal with this ugliness
for r in prebuild/*md;do
post $r
done
for p in prebuild/post/*md;do
post $p
done
}
_help() {
echo 'Options:
-h show this prompt
-p [postDirectory/*] (takes a list of paths to build from)
-r build root pages
-s copy stylesheets
-l run live server'
}
server() {
cd $rootDir
echo 'Address: 0.0.0.0:8080'
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080
}
if [ -z $1 ]
then
_help
exit 0
fi
