| 17 | # cleberg.net |
| 18 | |
| 19 | This document describes the structure and usage of the `cleberg.net` project. |
| 20 | The site is built and maintained using the Org-Mode publishing system within |
| 21 | Emacs, supported by the weblorg package. This setup allows for generation of |
| 22 | static HTML content from Org files using a declarative configuration. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | |
| 25 | <a id="orgdb622a7"></a> |
| 26 | |
| 27 | ## Site Structure |
| 28 | |
| 29 | The project source files are written in Org-Mode format and reside in the |
| 30 | repository. These files are processed by the publishing engine to produce HTML |
| 31 | output, which can then be deployed to a web server. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | The main site components are: |
| 34 | |
| 35 | - Org source files containing content, including blog posts and pages. |
| 36 | - A configuration file (`publish.el`) that specifies publishing parameters like |
| 37 | base URL, output directories, and export options. |
| 38 | - Assets such as images and stylesheets, located in designated subdirectories. |
| 39 | - Utility scripts (e.g., `build.sh`) to facilitate building and deployment. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | |
| 42 | <a id="org4029d4c"></a> |
| 43 | |
| 44 | ## Dependencies |
| 45 | |
| 46 | The publishing system depends on: |
| 47 | |
| 48 | - Emacs text editor with Org-Mode. |
| 49 | - The weblorg package, available at <https://github.com/emacs-love/weblorg>, which |
| 50 | provides advanced Org publishing functionality and theming support. |

| 55 | ## Viewing the Site Examples |
| 56 | |
| 57 | Screenshots illustrating the site in both light and dark display modes are |
| 58 | included in the `./screenshots/` directory. |

| 84 | |
| 85 | ## Configuration |
| 86 | |
| 87 | Custom site settings are centralized in the `publish.el` file. This file |
| 88 | establishes key variables such as: |
| 89 | |
| 90 | - The base URL for links. |
| 91 | - Output directories. |
| 92 | - Publishing rules defining which files are converted and how. |
| 93 | - Theme settings managed by weblorg. |
| 94 | |
| 95 | Users intending to modify site parameters should review and edit this file |
| 96 | accordingly. The weblorg documentation contains extensive details on |
| 97 | configuration options and expected formats. |

| 102 | ## Setup Instructions |
| 103 | |
| 104 | To obtain a working copy of this repository, execute the following commands |
| 105 | within a shell environment or Emacs’ shell interface: |
| 106 | |
| 107 | git clone https://github.com/ccleberg/cleberg.net |
| 108 | cd cleberg.net |
| 109 | emacs -nw |
| 110 | |
| 111 | For users employing Doom Emacs, open any repository Org file using `SPC f f` to |
| 112 | access the content. |
| 113 | |
| 114 | |
| 115 | <a id="org507540e"></a> |
| 116 | |
| 117 | ## Building and Publishing the Site |
| 118 | |
| 119 | The publishing process involves invoking Emacs with the `publish.el` script, |
| 120 | which performs the export of Org documents to HTML output. |
| 121 | |
| 122 | Configure the environment variable `ENV` as follows: |
| 123 | |
| 124 | - If `ENV` is set to `prod`, the script uses production base URL settings as |
| 125 | defined in `publish.el`. |
| 126 | - If `ENV` is unset or set differently, the script defaults to development |
| 127 | settings, typically using `localhost:8000` as the base URL. |
| 128 | |
| 129 | Example commands to build the site: |
| 130 | |
| 131 | # Production build: |
| 132 | ENV=prod emacs --script publish.el |
| 133 | |
| 134 | # Development build: |
| 135 | emacs --script publish.el |
| 136 | |
| 137 | Generated site files reside in the designated output directory, ready for |
| 138 | deployment. Deployment can be performed by standard file transfer protocols such |
| 139 | as `scp` or SFTP. |
| 140 | |
| 141 | The `./build.sh` script automates the build process. It can be executed with or |
| 142 | without the `ENV` variable to perform production or development builds |
| 143 | respectively. |
| 144 | |
| 145 | # Production build script: |
| 146 | ENV=prod ./build.sh |
| 147 | |
| 148 | # Development build script: |
| 149 | ./build.sh |
| 150 | |

| 154 | ## Creating New Blog Posts |
| 155 | |
| 156 | To add new blog content, follow this procedure within Emacs: |
| 157 | |
| 158 | 1. Open a new Org file (via `C-x C-f` or Doom’s `SPC f f`). |
| 159 | 2. Insert the contents of the post template with `C-x i`, sourcing from |
| 160 | `utils/template.org`. |
| 161 | 3. Modify the new file as needed to add post content and metadata. |
| 162 | |
| 163 | This method streamlines content creation by reusing a preformatted template. |
