Doc-generator

Here is the documentation of the language in markdown, and a program to generate static HTML files from them.

src folder

Rust code to generate HTML files from MD files.

The binary is called like:

generator --input /path/to/markdown/folder/ --output /path/to/static/folder/

markdown folder

Contains the Markdown. All files inside are expected to be UTF-8 encoded markdown, and have the .md file extension.

The markdown follows the CommonMark specification, but certain code blocks contain custom behaviour:

meta

A code block with language meta contains text in TOML format that indicates metadata for the current page.

```meta
title: "Title of the page"
description: "Description of the page"
```
  • title: Used to create the title of the page with the format {title} - Misti
  • description: The description of the page, placed in a <meta> element in the <head>

nav

Used to link to the previous/next page.

```nav
[previous]
href = "./relative/path/to/previous.html"
title = "Title of previous page"

[next]
href = "./relative/path/to/previous.html"
title = "Title of previous page"
```

static folder

Contains CSS, JS, and HTML templates. Here the MD files are written to after being converted.

There must be a template.html file inside this folder. This file will be used to generate the HTML from MD files.

Inside template.html there must be a string {{markdown}}:

<!-- Some html -->
    {{markdown}}
<!-- More html -->

This string, {{markdown}}, will be replaced with the HTML generated from Markdown

dist folder

Coming soon, this folder will contain all HTML, CSS & JS minified after running a script.
