Blog-o-Matic CLI

The Blog-o-Matic CLI tool is for syncing your blog to your computer's filesystem

API

Command	Description
blog init	Generate a blog
blog post	Generate a blog post
blog preview	Open a server for blog content
blog publish	Build blog, and push, depending on blog.config.yml settings
blog publish --fs --s3	Publish both via fs and s3

Unimplemented

We should have publish settings:

blog publish ./resources/my-image-1.jpg   # Re-upload a file.
blog publish ./posts/my-post-1.md --force # Upload files related to a post
blog publish --force                      # Re-upload all files

We should be able to specify more in args:

blog init ./my-blog
blog post ./my-post

We should be able to convert a non-post markdown file into a post:

blog post ./my-post.md

The important thing to take note of is generation of blog.config.yml
