This is my blog. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
The content and code herein is documented with reasonable depth in this blog post:
http://mark.koli.ch/a-new-blog-platform-backed-by-github-twitter-bootstrap-and-curacao
This custom blogging platform is built with:
- Java 8
- GitHub and JGit
- Curacao
- Markdown with Pegdown
- Twitter Bootstrap
This project is built and managed using Apache Maven.
To clone, build, and run this project you must have Maven installed and configured.
To begin, clone the repository.
#~> git clone https://github.com/markkolich/blog.git
Run mvn jetty:run from within your newly cloned blog directory to start the local servlet container.
#~> cd blog
#~/blog> mvn jetty:run
Run mvn jetty:run-forked fizzed-watcher:run to start Jetty in "forked" mode and watch for resource changes. Any changes to .js or .css files will invoke the process-resources goal to minfiy and compress all static resources while the Jetty server continues to run:
#~/blog> mvn jetty:run-forked fizzed-watcher:run
In your nearest web-browser, visit http://localhost:8080/blog.
To stop the development server, press Ctrl-C.
To build a deployable WAR for your favorite servlet container, run mvn package.
#~/blog> mvn package
The resulting WAR is placed into the local dist directory. Deploy and enjoy.
