gulp-pagemaki

Gulp plugin to pipe vinyl file objects and transform them into static HTML pages

Usage

var maki = require("gulp-pagemaki");
var path = require("path");
 
gulp.task('statics', function () {
    
    return gulp.src("./src/pages/**/*.html")
        .pipe(maki({
            templateDir: path.join(__dirname, "src", "layouts")
        }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest("./public"));
 
});

This takes a folder structure that looks like this:

gulpfile.js
node_modules/
package.json
public/
src/
    js/
    layouts/
        default.html
    pages/
        about/
            index.html
        index.html
    sass/

And will take all of the .html files in src/pages, run them them through the pagemaki parser to find Yaml metadata similar to Jekyll, then use that to find which layout to load from your layout directory that you passed in the gulpfile above.

Once it finds the layout, it drops the content part of each file into the <%= content %> tag in the layout and makes the rest of the variables available to that layout as js vars.

When the parsing and compiling is done, it writes each file, in its preserved folder structure, to the public folder. Now you're building your static HTML files with gulp just like your sass, browserified scripts, etc.

Sample files

src/pages/index.html

---
layout: default
title: My Homepage
---
# Hello from my homepage

src/layouts/default.html

<html>
  <head>
    <title><%= page.title %></title>
  </head>
  <body>
  	<%= content %>
    </body>
</html>

After gulp statics runs...

public/index.html

<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Homepage</title>
  </head>
  <body>
  	<h1>Hello from my homepage</h1>
    </body>
</html>
