Wormwood

Wormwood is an event-driven template rendering utility inspired by Jekyll. It's great for rendering markdown, e.g., a README file, as you edit.

Wormwood will:

1. watch for changes to a template directory ( ./ by default)
2. render the changed files (via Tilt) into a layout
3. write the rendered, laid-out content to an output directory ( ./ by default).

Installation

$ gem install wormwood

Usage

1. Create a file Tilt knows how to render, e.g., foo.md
2. Run wormwood
3. Edit foo.md and observe the creation of foo.html

Note: Wormwood will generate a file called <layout name>.erb in your source directory if a file named "layout" doesn't already exist. Feel free to hack it.

Configuration

Wormwood defines a few configuration options:

--source The directory containing the template and layout files. Defaults to "./"

--destination The directory to write rendered files to. Defaults to "./"

--layout The layout file name (without extension). Defaults to "layout".

--variable The name of the variable used to insert rendered content into the layout. Defaults to "content".
