Welcome to the aintablog wiki.

Aintablog is an open source blogging platform that attempts to combine the cooler parts of tumblr with more traditional blogging mainstays (commenting anyone?) It’s not done. It’s really not done.

Still, certain things work. You can create new posts (or as we call them, “articles”), quotes, and even import your Twitter/Flickr feed. I’m running it right now at patnakajima.com.

This app isn’t quite for beginners (yet?). You need to know your way around a Rails app to really get going. With that being said, if you know Rails, then this app should be a piece of cake.

So fork away, and let me know if you add anything cool.

REQUIREMENTS

You’re going to need the feed-normalizer gem.

sudo gem install feed-normalizer

If you want to run the test suite, you’ll need the mocha gem.

sudo gem install mocha

I think that’s about it.

TODO

  • Put together a better regex for the spanify_links helper
  • Page titles!
  • Page caching
  • More control over posts (publish_at, commentable?)
