Website

This repository hosts the source code which (eventually) powers my website: https://leonardobishop.com/

The app is written in TypeScript and runs on NodeJS using Express, rendering web pages with ejs. It parses content pages written in a markup language (currently Wikitext) from the pages/ directory and renders them as HTML.

Building and running

Instructions to build and deploy the web app will be written here whenever it is finished.

Using docker

$ docker build -t website .
$ docker run -p 3000:3000 website

Building directly

$ npm i -g typescript
$ npm ci --only-production
$ tsc && node build/index.js

The application will be listening on port 3000.

Caveats

This website is essentially built like a wiki system, though there are some drawbacks with this compared to actual wiki software, considering this is a highly specific use case of it. In no particular order: * re-rendering pages are a pain after edits * files are read from /static/image rather than /pages/file (which breaks the point of the entire namespace system) * ~~templates can't transclude other templates~~ (✅ fixed 144fec4) * ~~the Template namespace is the only transcludable namespace~~ (✅ fixed 144fec4) * ~~circular dependencies cause infinite recursion~~ (✅ fixed 951984f) * code is a bit wack in places * I'm never happy with the visual design * I don't actually know what to fill this website with * I've written this list both on the website itself and in this readme so I will have to update it twice (and will likely forget one of them)
