rib-sample

Sample site for the Rib static site generator.

Prerequisites

First, install the Nix package manager:

bash <(curl https://nixos.org/nix/install)

Optionally, enable the Nix cache if you would like to speed up local builds:

# If you do not already have cachix, install it:
nix-env -iA cachix -f https://cachix.org/api/v1/install
# Enable nix cache for rib
cachix use srid

Running

To build and run the site:

nix-shell --run 'ghcid -T ":main -wS"'

This launches a web server at http://localhost:8080 serving the statically generated content. Changing either ./src/Main.hs or the content in ./content reloads everything.

Use a custom rib and port

You might have a local checkout of rib with certain modifications. And you might want to run ghcid with the server running at a different port. Both of this can achieved using the following command:

# Assuming rib is cloned at ../rib
nix-shell --arg rib ../rib --run 'ghcid -T ":main -ws :8081"'

IDE support

The .vscode directory contains the necessary settings to work with a rib project.

Ensure that Nix is installed
Run code . to open the project in VSCode, and install the recommended extensions.
- The default settings have auto-format enabled.

Building the executable

A fully built executable can be produced using nix-build:

$ nix-build 
...
$ ./result/bin/rib-sample --help
