About my website

My website is hosted by GitHub. To do so I had to create a repository with the name rajarshi99.github.io and the rest was pretty easy. If your github username is xyz then you would need to create the repository xyz.github.io.

For easy editing I write the content in markdown and then I run a custom Makefile using the make command. I use the pandoc program to generate the .html pages from the .md files.

What is footer.txt?

The Makefile concatenates footer.txt to each of the files with the extension .md and then uses the pandoc program to generate the required web pages.

How do I generate the table of contents?

I generate a table of contents for all the markdown files using my script gen_toc.awk on the output of the ls command, which lists directory contents.

more.html : more_header.md gen_toc.awk $(DEP) $(MD_DEEP)
    ls -lt */* \
        | awk -f gen_toc.awk \
        | cat more_header.md - footer.txt \
        | pandoc -s -o $@

What joy is this for?

I come here for command line jugglery. Showcasing articles is a by-product. ✌️

What am I going to do next?

I will make a script to automatically create an interactive page to display the webpages as nodes and the hyperlinks as edges of a graph.
