Rugem, a barely working gemini site generator written in Rust.

Rugem assumes your have this directory structure:

root
  |
  |-index.gmi
  |
  |-some_file.mp4 
  |-some_gmi_file.gmi
  |
  |-entry-11-10-2021.gmi 
  |-second_entry-10-7-2020.gmi
  |
  |-subfolder
  |  |
  |  |-index.gmi
  |  |-music-12-2-2021.gmi
  |  .
  |   
  |-subfolder2
  |  |
  |  |-something-4-7-2014.gmi
  .  .

A single directory, let's call it Gemdir, can contain:

• an index.gmi file
• some entries with dates, with format title-dd-mm-yyyy.gmi. Underscores in title will be substituted with spaces, more on this later.
• any kind other of file, be a .gmi file without a date in its name or not.
• subfolders, which are treated as Gemdirs themselves.

The idea is to have a recursive structure. Every subfolder can contain anything listed above. During blog generation, a folder will be created, and every file will be copied over unchanged, except every index.gmi file:

• {{ full-list }} will be substituted with a list of EVERY single dated post in the current directory and in every subdirectory. Use this if you want to generate a list of every single post sorted in order.
• {{ folders }} will print, for each subfolder, the title of the subfolder and then a list of posts with date. If the subfolder contains and index.gmi file, a link will be created below the name of the subfolder.

More examples can be found in the examples folder. More features (namely, only printing a handful of files and expanding macros in other .gmi files) will be added later.

Usage

rugem origin/ target/ "Feed Title" "gemini://www.baseurl.com" "Author Name"

The last three arguments are needed to generate the atom feed.
