Blogsiple - simple blog system example
Blogsiple is the official Node.js testbed for Create CMS UI integration. It has been built using the NodeXT framework.
Installation with NPM
$ npm install -g blogsiple
Installing with git
Check out this repository from GitHub:
$ git://github.com/bergie/blogsiple.git
Then install dependencies:
$ cd blogsiple
$ npm install
You also need a JugglingDB database provider. By default we use Redis, which is installed via dependencies.
Running
With globally-installed Blogsiple with a default configuration:
$ blogsiple
With locally-installed Blogsiple:
$ ./bin/blogsiple configuration/redis_8001.json
If you want to use a different database or a server setup, just create your own NodeXT configuration file for Blogsiple.
Importing blog entries
You can populate the Blogsiple database with blog posts from any RSS feed. Do this with:
$ ./bin/blogsiple_import_rss configuration/redis_8001.json http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/rss.xml
