Luapress v4

Due to lack of time, I am no longer actively working on Luapress. I will happily review, merge & release pull requests.

Luapress is yet another static site generator, written in Lua, with posts in markdown. It's simple, fast and supports both plugins and templates.

Quick Start

Install with Luarocks:

luarocks install luapress

Create a new site in some directory (you can optionally specify --template "etlua" or --template "lhtml" to use the etlua or LHTML default template over the mustache one):

luapress init URL [--template "etlua"]

Drop Markdown files in posts/ & pages/ and build with:

luapress

Now, just upload the contents of build/ to the web.

Next Steps

Luapress offers many other features, which are documented on it's website:

• Markdown extras
• Config options
• Environments
• Templates
• Plugins

Example

I'm using it for my blog, Pointless Ramblings. The Luapress website itself is also powered by Luapress :).
