Serve your Hyde site over Gopher. (This is primarily made possible by flask-gopher, yay.)
pandoc is needed to parse Markdown, so you'll need to have this installed.
You can install the latest relase from PyPI by running
python3 -m pip install hyde-gopherIf you want to use the latest development snapshot (which may be broken), you'll need to clone or download the repository and then install the package with:
python3 -m pip install .If you don't want to install anything, you can replace hyde-gopher with
python3 -m hyde_gopher.main in the following steps.
As Gopher supports only absolute links and there's no such thing as a Host header,
hyde-gopher needs to know the absolute base path of your site when generating the
static site. (If you're using the built-in webserver this is currently being guessed
from the bind configuration which may lead to broken links. Please use the built-in
webserver just for local tests and not for internet-facing deployments.)
There are also a few things you might want to configure but don't have to.
To do so, add the following lines to your site.yaml:
gopher_base_url: gopher://gopher.mysite.invalid:71/~user/ # needed
gopher_layout_root: layout_gopher # this is the default
gopher_width: 70 # this is the defaultIf you don't want to create your layout from scratch you can use a bundled one
– to do so, run hyde-gopher init.
You can use the built-in webserver for a quick test – and also for pre-viewing your site while editing it.
To do so, run hyde-gopher serve.
Per default, this will serve the site from the current working directory
at gopher://localhost:7070/, placing generated files into deploy_gopher/.
(You can change this, see hyde-gopher -h and hyde-gopher serve -h for more options.)
The primary purpose of hyde-gopher is to generate a static site (just like hyde's).
To do so, run hyde-gopher gen.
Per default, this will generate a static version of the site from the current
working directory to the folder deploy_gopher/.
(You can change this, see hyde-gopher -h and hyde-gopher gen -h for more options.)
- links in HTML pages are not rendered as links (it works in Markdown, though)
- images are only linked if you use a macro to render them
- just HTML files, binaries and folders are considered
hyde-gopher needs Python >= 3.6.
The currenty stable release of hyde (0.8.9) needs Python < 3. You'll need to install the pre-release of hyde 0.9.0 to get this working:
python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/hyde/hyde.git@V0.9.0
