Yet another TypeScript SSG

But with built-in i18n support and a minimal API.

Why

No need for bloated code for simple tasks. We need to reduce over-engineering and keep our toolchains slim.

Usage

Initialize a project:

mkdir project-name
cd project-name
npx @millino/naked-ssg initialize

Some files need to be created manually, see the sections below.

To build the project:

npx @millino/naked-ssg build

todo:

npx naked-ssg server

Project structure

/
 - config.js
 - /pages
   - index.js
   - /test-sub-directory
     - index.js

Example config.js

import { SiteConfiguration, TranslationsMap } from "@millino/naked-ssg";

const CONFIG: SiteConfiguration = {
  cultures: ["it", "en"], // "it" is the default culture,

  // @todo:
  defaultCultureDirectoryBuildBehavior: "both", // Builds pages for both / and /it
};

const TRANSLATIONS: TranslationsMap = {
  it: {
    test: "Test IT",
  },
  en: {
    test: "Test EN",
  },
};

export { CONFIG, TRANSLATIONS };

Please note: The first culture in the CONFIG.cultures array will be the default culture, which currently has no dedicated subdirectory.

Example page

A page must have a default export, which is a function returning a string with the page markup.

/pages/index.js

import { TRANSLATIONS } from "../config.js";

const Index = (cultureCode) => /*jsx*/ `
<p>
    ${TRANSLATIONS[cultureCode].test}! ${2 + 2}
</p>
`;

export default Index;

The comment below is used to trigger the es6-string-jsx VSCode plugin functionality, which provides JSX-like syntax highlighting within the function body.

/*jsx*/

Page-level configuration

Certain specific behaviors are obtainable by exporting a localConfig constant. See the available configuration options in the example below:

import { TRANSLATIONS } from "../../config.js";

const Index = (cultureCode) => /*jsx*/ `
<p>
    ${TRANSLATIONS[cultureCode].test}! ${2 + 2}
</p>
`;

export const localConfig = {
  title: "Title", // The title tag
  skipForCultures: ["it"], // The current page won't be built for the "it" culture,
};

export default Index;

Plug-ins

Advanced features are OSP, meaning: plug-in system WIP, meanwhile fork the project.
