subsocial-static-site

Render your Subsocial spaces as static sites so you can self-host them on your own domain.

This script is a plugin for the Nikola static-site generator that imports the posts from a Subsocial space.

Usage

1. Start an IPFS daemon so the script can access the content.
2. Create and edit a new Nikola configuration with nikola init.
3. Copy the files in #/plugins to your new Nikola site directory.
4. Run nikola import_subsocial --space=YOUR_SPACE_ID.
5. Build your static site using nikola build and preview!

You should see log output from step 4 that looks as follows:

[2020-12-31 11:11:11] INFO: import_subsocial: POST_ID: POST_TITLE

In case your post does not have a title, it won't be imported into Nikola:

[2020-12-31 12:12:12] WARNING: import_subsocial: POST_ID: Ignoring post without title.
