PFT stands for Plain F. Text, where the meaning of F. is up to personal interpretation. Like Fancy or Fantastic.
It is yet another static website generator. This means your content is compiled once and the result can be served by a simple HTTP server, without need of server-side dynamic content generation.
This project provides the command line tools needed for managing the blog and compile it in web pages. It uses the library called PFT in order to obtain an abstraction over the file system access.
The canonical way of installing this module would be by means of the following commands:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
In reality you probably want to install cpanminus and just run cpanm .
in the directory obtained by extracting the tarball.
This module installs executable scripts for the command line, and it comes with an extension of the bash completion system. Such system is not installed automatically in order to avoid collisions with the native packaging system.
The file can be manually installed by copying the bash_completion.d/pft
file in the proper directory, whose path can be retrieved by running
pkg-config --variable=completionsdir bash-completion. Usually this gets
expanded as /usr/share/bash-completion/completions.
After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command.
perldoc App::PFT
This project however comes with a number of individually documented
executable scripts. Each script comes with a manual page (e.g. man pft init).
