Tutorial

You must create dirs, config file, md files with content and templates.

mkdir my-test-page
cd my-test-page
mkdir articles
mkdir public
mkdir view
touch config.ini

Edit config.ini and define pages:

[_global]
config.destonationPath = public/ ; path wher new file was create 
config.fileName = index.html ; file name 
 
[index : _global] ; inherits the settings from the section _global 
config.templateFile = view/index.html ; template file for site "index" 
config.fileName = index.html ; file name 
; define for series pages 
articles.sourcePath = articles/ ; path where searh md files 
articles.order = path ; order files by 
articles.destonationPath = public/articles/ ; destonation generated files 
articles.ext = html ; change md extension for html 
articles.templateFile = view/article.html ; template file 
 
[history : index] ; inherits the settings from the section index 
config.templateFile = view/history.html ; change template name 
config.fileName = history.html ; change destonation file name 
 
[about : _global]
config.templateFile = view/about.html
config.fileName = about.html

Create templates in view dir How to create templates files If you want use article's list in template, you must write something like this:

{% for art in articles %}
<div>
    {{ art.introText|raw }}
</div>
<div>
    <ul class="nav nav-pills">
        <li><a href="/articles/{{ art.destRelPath }}" title="{{ art.firstLine|title }}">Czytaj więcej</a></li>
        <li><a href="/articles/{{ art.destRelPath }}#disqus_thread" title="{{ art.firstLine|title }}">Komentuj</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>
{% endfor %}

Article atributes:

art = {
    fullText: /* html file generated from md */
    introText: /* html file generated from md to tag <!-- more --> */
    firstLine: /* first line from md */
    sourcePath: /* path to md file */
    sourceRelPath: /* relative path to file */,
    destPath: /* destonation path to html file */
    destRelPath: /* relative path to html file (can be use to create links) */
    size: /* size md file */
    atime: /* data from fs.statSync */
    mtime: /* data from fs.statSync */
    ctime: /* data from fs.statSync */
}

In view/article.html template use variable data

{% block content %}
    {{ data.fullText|raw }}
{% endblock %}

Ok you have config and templates. Create yours .md pages in articles/ dir and run commend:

spg --config=config.ini

In "public" should appear html files.

Configure your webserwer and is done.
