Competing static site generators integrate the functionality of regenerating
content and serving it into their main executable. In pelican this
functionality used to be in an external script `develop_server.sh` which
resides in the blog base directory. This has the disadvantage that changes in
pelican can break the `develop_server.sh` scripts which will not automatically
be upgraded together with pelican by package managers. Thus, pelican should
integrate this functionality into its main executable.
To this end, this commit removes `develop_server.sh` and adds three command
line options to the pelican executable:
* `-l/--listen` starts the HTTP server (`-s/--serve` was already taken)
* `-p/--port` specifies the port to listen at
* `-b/--bind` specifies the IP to bind to
`--listen` and `--autoreload` can be used together to achieve the same
effect that other static site generators offer: Serve files via HTTP
while at the same time auto-generating the content.
Since the `develop_server.sh` script was removed, pelican-quickstart looses the
`develop` option.
Since the `develop_server.sh` script was removed, the Makefile looses the
`stopserver` target and the `devserver` target is replaced by running `pelican
-l` in the foreground.
Since pelican now offers the `--listen` option, the fabfile uses that instead
of starting the socketserver itself.
With this patch, there are new FEED_*_URL configuration options that
allow to specify custom URLs for feeds, which is helpful in case the
feed filename and the actual URL differ a lot -- for example if a feed
is saved to
blog/feeds/all.atom.xml
but the actual URL from the user PoV is
http://blog.your.site/feeds/all.atom.xml
This setting currently affects only the generated feed XML. This change
is also fully backwards compatible, so if the FEED_*_URL setting is not
present, the value of FEED_* is used for both file location and URL.
Allow for overriding individual templates from the theme by configuring
the Jinja2 `Environment` loader to search for templates in the
`THEME_TEMPLATES_OVERRIDES` path before the theme's `templates/`
directory.
Starting with python 3.6 warnings are issued for invalid escape
sequences in regular expressions. This commit corrects all
DeprecationWarning's via properly declaring the offending
regular expressions as raw strings.
Resolves#2095.
STATIC_CREATE_LINKS = False
Create links instead of copying files. If the content and output
directories are on the same device, then create hard links. Falls
back to symbolic links if the output directory is on a different
filesystem. If symlinks are created, don’t forget to add the -L or
--copy-links option to rsync when uploading your site.
STATIC_CHECK_IF_MODIFIED = False
If set to True, and STATIC_CREATE_LINKS is False, compare mtimes of
content and output files, and only copy content files that are newer
than existing output files.

Convert all tables to 'data::' directives.
Replace inline literals with code blocks for better readability.
Per suggestion from Avaris on IRC:
- Section rename: "Path metadata" to "Metadata" and move over AUTHOR and
all *_METADATA options.
- Merge "Date format and locale" and "Timezone" into a new section "Time
and Date" and move over TIMEZONE, DEFAULT_DATE, DATE_FORMATS,
DEFAULT_DATE_FORMAT.
- Move RELATIVE_URL under 'URL settings'. Here, convert URL settings
example from a 4-bullet inline literal to a single code block for
better readability in both source and output.
- Move *_TEMPLATE options under "Templates".
Cosmetic and wording updates to accommodate the above changes and
provide a consistent layout.
The BLOGROLL_WIDGET_NAME and SOCIAL_WIDGET_NAME settings are now
respected by notmyidea if they are specified in your config file.
They override the default names of "blogroll" and "links" in the
notmyidea theme.
Used default() in template to simplify template code.
Renaming BLOGROLL setting to LINKS, changed default also.
Updated tests to check 'links' instead of 'blogroll'.
Whoops; links, not link.
ARTICLE_ORDER_BY wasn't doing anything because the ArticlesGenerator
was sorting articles after ARTICLE_ORDER_BY was applied. This fixes
that by adding the ability to reverse metadata order by adding the
option prefix 'reversed-' to metadata and changing the default value
to 'reversed-date'.
Relevant documentation is also updated and moved into a more appropriate
place ('Ordering Content' instead of 'URL settings').
