./build.py will generate _site/. That's all you need.

Adding posts manually

The date and time for a post is figured out from the filename.

Posts have a filename of the form posts/YYYY-MM-DD_HH.MM.SS.html where:

• YYYY is the 4-digit year (e.g. 2023)
• MM is the zero-padded month (e.g. 12 or 03)
• DD is the zero-padded date of the month (e.g. 03 or 31)
• HH is the zero-padded 24-hour hour (e.g. 01, 13, or 23)
• MM is the zero-padded minute (e.g. 05 or 58)
• SS is the zero-padded second (e.g. 06 or 59)

"New Post" bookmarklet

If you want to make posts, make a bookmarklet with the following as the URL:

javascript:(function(){date=new Date();y=date.getFullYear();mo=date.getMonth()+1;d=date.getDate();h=date.getHours();mi=date.getMinutes();s=date.getSeconds();location.href='https://github.com/duckinator/news.do1g.com/new/main?filename=posts/'+y+'-'+mo.toString().padStart(2, '0')+'-'+d.toString().padStart(2, '0')+'_'+h.toString().padStart(2, '0')+'.'+mi.toString().padStart(2, '0')+'.'+s.toString().padStart(2, '0')+'.html';})()
