proudlygeek / hipstadeploy Goto Github PK

I was using this script in order to statically deploy my site. The thing is, It would always fail on the "Generate static files" part even thought the site was being downloaded.

As I didn't get any debug from the script, I checked the console where Ghost was running, and found in the log a couple of 404's that were generated by links that were in the theme. Changed to the default theme, re run hipdep and voilà, site was fetched correctly.

How to reproduce: Just add a link in any post/page to a post/page that does not exists in the site.

Right now Hipstadeploy relies on hardcoded vars for generating static html pages:

...
SITE_URL="http://localhost:2368"
OUTPUT_FOLDER="_site/"
PUBLISH_URL=""
...

It could be handy to store them in a JSON config file (Hipstafile?):

{
    "site_url": "http://localhost:2368",
    "output_folder": "_site/",
    "publish_url": "http://www.example.com"
}

When generating a site from Ghost (http://localhost:2368) the RSS feed will still contain localhost links.
