15:29 spilth joined #sourcefu
15:33 spilth I made a Liquid Tag that executes Ruby code blocks and appends the output to the page: http://spilth.org/plugins/ruby-block/
15:34 spilth Code is here: https://gist.github.com/4683737
15:34 pdurbin huh. cool
15:35 spilth I should look into generifying it so you could run Python, Perl, etc...
15:35 spilth I'm writing up a Ruby/Rails crash course for some people here and wanted an easy way to show the output of commands in my documentaiton
15:37 pdurbin spilth: next make me a javaee/jsf crash course please
15:40 spilth Here's what I have so far: http://spilth.org/notes/rails-crash-course/
15:42 spilth hrm, those output blocks might need a little more space after them. They kind of overtake the header below them
15:57 spilth Nice - When you use the Kramdown gem (instead of RDiscount) for Markdown support, you can auto-generates linked TOCs from your headers! http://kramdown.rubyforge.org/converter/html.html#toc
16:05 pdurbin i use http://ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki/directive/toc for this but sadly the anchors are meaningless: http://wiki.greptilian.com/ubuntu/#index1h2 . here's the source for that page: https://github.com/pdurbin/wiki/blob/master/ubuntu.mdwn
16:06 spilth Kramdown seems to use the Header text so I guess it best be unique - http://localhost:4200/notes/rails-crash-course/#define-and-call-a-method
16:08 spilth You can also specify header IDs it looks like - http://kramdown.rubyforge.org/converter/html.html#auto-ids
16:08 spilth But at some point you might as well just write HTML :-/
16:09 * pdurbin asks about toc in #ikiwiki
16:10 spilth I'm still going to look at ikiwiki at some point. Just enjoying playing with Jekyll still
16:12 pdurbin cool. i like knowing jekyll a bit since github offers free web hosting and runs the source through jekyll. i doubt they'd ever support ikiwiki :(
16:17 spilth TOC now: http://spilth.org/notes/rails-crash-course/
16:19 pdurbin now i'm jealous
16:20 pdurbin a guy in #ikiwiki is telling me that switching to http://search.cpan.org/dist/Text-MultiMarkdown/ might help
16:50 spilth ha. I just met Tomas Doran at DevOps Days. He showed me Orc - https://github.com/youdevise/orc
16:55 spilth (he made Text-MultiMarkdown)
17:12 pdurbin ah ha, so i see: https://github.com/bobtfish/text-multimarkdown
19:55 spilth I'm going to work on making that Jekyll/Liquid block into a gem for easy integration
20:02 pdurbin spilth: so are you going to try to use jekyll instead of, say, ikiwiki or gollum?
20:49 spilth For now, yes
20:49 pdurbin ok. please keep us posted
20:49 spilth I don't need ikiwiki for my personal site
20:49 spilth for work/multi-user I'd consider ikiwki
20:51 pdurbin how interested are you in a hierarchy of documents, like i've got at http://wiki.greptilian.com/sitemap (if you scroll down)
20:52 pdurbin i.e. http://wiki.greptilian.com/java/ee/jsf
20:52 spilth and automating that organization via the filesystem?
20:52 pdurbin yeah
20:53 pdurbin https://github.com/pdurbin/wiki/tree/master/java/ee
20:56 spilth That might be handy. Currently I just do it manually.
20:56 pdurbin yeah, i got sick of that real quick with jekyll
20:56 pdurbin and gollum is a flat namespace, which was a deal breaker for me
20:56 spilth http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9053066/sorted-navigation-menu-with-jekyll-and-liquid
21:02 spilth And admittedly I like being in a Ruby world to help keep me practicing
21:06 pdurbin if you can make jekyll do what ikiwiki does... allow me to have a hierarchy of docs on my filesystem, i might switch
21:16 pdurbin progress with solr: add solr demo · 280548e · IQSS/iqss-javaee-template - https://github.com/IQSS/iqss-javaee-template/commit/280548e31b5d69a9e02cbee8e23453d980b21894
21:31 spilth But you want to be able to host it on GitHub, right?
21:31 pdurbin that would be nice
21:32 spilth I believe you have to use Jekyll "as is" to host on GitHub
21:32 pdurbin oh
21:32 pdurbin so even after all your work, i would be able to use it on github?
21:33 spilth I believe so
21:34 pdurbin booo
21:34 spilth https://help.github.com/articles/pages-don-t-build-unable-to-run-jekyll
21:34 pdurbin my latest thoughts on solr: https://redmine.hmdc.harvard.edu/issues/2656#note-5
21:55 spilth I should probably give http://octopress.org/ and http://awestruct.org/ another look as well.
23:23 pdurbin hadn't seen awestruct before
23:25 pdurbin the thing with octopress is that you build the site locally and then push the generated html up: http://octopress.org/docs/deploying/github/
23:25 pdurbin that's my understanding anyway and i don't like it
23:26 pdurbin with plain jekyll you can `git push` to GitHub Pages and the html gets generated for you server-side
23:26 pdurbin and that's how ikiwiki works too... i edit my files, do a commit, and do a push. i don't have to generate the html client-side. i love it
23:27 pdurbin but plain jekyll gets annoying if you want to make a lot of folders and subfolders (and more subfolders). ikiwiki is great for this
