Add a --setting-overrides KEY=VAL command line option to override
default settings or those defined in settings files. This adds
flexibility in running Pelican and helps reduce sprawl of settings
files. Cast int and str setting overrides to their respective types.
Support other setting types by treating them as JSON. Fall back to JSON
when an override typecast errors. This should make it possible to set
int values to None, resp. to JSON 'none'
* Creates pelican.plugins
* Moves plugin related code under pelican.plugins
* pelican.plugins.signals is now the location for signals, pelican.signals is kept
for backwards compatibility
* pelican.plugins._utils contains necessary bits for plugin discovery and loading.
Logic from Pelican class is moved here. Pelican class now just asks for plugins
and registers them
* Contains tests for old and new plugin loading
This commit removes Six as a dependency for Pelican, replacing the
relevant aliases with the proper Python 3 imports. It also removes
references to Python 2 logic that did not require Six.
3a0add4b6e caused existing configs to fall
back to defaults. But since we know exactly how to fix the user config
so that the behavior doesn't change, we should do so, while still
warning that use of %s is deprecated.
Also fixes a bug where we tried to look for %s in None.
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.
Currently it was only possible to use page "save as" name or part of it
for generating pagination links. That's not sufficient when page URLs
differ a lot from actual filenames. With this patch it's possible to use
the `{url}` placeholder in PAGINATION_PATTERNS setting. For example, the
paginated archives would be saved to:
blog/index.html
blog/2/index.html
blog/3/index.html
while the actual URLs would be like this (with the help of Apache's
mod_rewrite):
http://blog.my.site/http://blog.my.site/2/http://blog.my.site/3/
The configuration that corresponds to this is roughly the following:
ARCHIVES_SAVE_AS = 'blog/index.html'
ARCHIVES_URL = 'http://blog.my.site/'
PAGINATION_PATTERNS = [
(1, '/{url}', '{base_name}/index.html'),
(2, '/{url}{number}/', '{base_name}/{number}/index.html')
]
Also added YEAR_ARCHIVE_URL, MONTH_ARCHIVE_URL and DAY_ARCHIVE_URL
settings, as they were missing and now they make sense.
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.
* Consolidate validation of content
Previously we validated content outside of the content class via
calls to `is_valid_content` and some additional checks in page /
article generators (valid status).
This commit moves those checks all into content.valid() resulting
in a cleaner code structure.
This allows us to restructure how generators interact with content,
removing several old bugs in pelican (#1748, #1356, #2098).
- move verification function into content class
- move generator verifying content to contents class
- remove unused quote class
- remove draft class (no more rereading drafts)
- move auto draft status setter into Article.__init__
- add now parsing draft to basic test output
- remove problematic DEFAULT_STATUS setting
- add setter/getter for content.status
removes need for lower() calls when verifying status
* expand c4b184fa32
Mostly implement feedback by @iKevinY.
* rename content.valid to content.is_valid
* rename valid_* functions to has_valid_*
* update tests and function calls in code accordingly
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.
