This is mostly a collection of Metalsmith plugins that produces a site with all the features I'd want to publish a Day One journal as a blog. I tried to comment everything that's going on in the index.js
file, so it'd be at least semi-understandable.
This is just an example, so there's no way to use it directly in your Metalsmith site, but all the Day One data parsing is in the plugin metalsmith-dayone
if you wanted to do your own thing with the data.
It is possible to have this example use your own Day One data, if you wanted to see how that would look:
# Export your own Day One data as JSON to your-dayone.zip
git clone git@github.com:lukekarrys/metalsmith-dayone-example.git
cd metalsmith-dayone-example
npm install
npm run build -- --data your-dayone.zip
npm run preview
