Maurice

You can generate a static blog ready to be deployed in just a few commands. It's easy and minimalist.
It supports pagination and page generation for each item.

How to install it

The concept

Maurice is using 2 kind of object : page and resource

A page is some HTML code that the tool will use to generate the final HTML pages.

A resource is a markdown file that contains data to populate a page. For instance, you can have the resource article, product, employee...

The resources are more or less a file database. I choose to not use a SQLite databse because I want the data to be easy to edit and create.

A page can use a resource to generate its content. Thanks to some configuration, you can define if a page will paginate the resources or if it generates a page for each item.

Both objects follow the same format. The first block contains configuration and variables injected to the templater and a second block that's contains either markdown or HTML.
