Version 2.0
This is a template for a pelican blog. It creates a development environment with a virtual environment and some scripts to simplify the workflow.
You need cookiecutter, a tool to create projects from project templates. Once installed (in a virtualenv or just with pip install cookiecutter) run the following command:
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/lgiordani/cookiecutter-pelicanblog.git
Answer the questions. You may safely use the default values for version_file_name
and deploy_directory
if you don't have specific needs. The two values source_repository
and deploy_repository
are the names (not the URLs) of the two repositories that will contain the source of the site and the rendered site. By default the first is blog_source
and the second is the path used by GitHub pages <github_username>.github.com
.
Once cookiecutter has created your blog enter the directory (named after the value of source_repository
) and follow the HOWTO.md
file.
