qobe - Fixed-structure-template-less blog engine

What is qobe

'qobe' is a fixed structure static blog engine with only one CSS file to customize. So, there is no template language to learn. Features:

• A blog engine in one C++ file
• Compile and run it: g++ qobe.cpp -o qobe && ./qobe.out ./input ./output
• First argument is the blog input directory, each article in dedicated subdirectory along with images, named index.md
• Supports YAML header (date and title fields only)
• Supports code highlighting (front-end script)

Blog structure:

docs/blog
      | article-1
           |__ index.md
           |__ image1.png

      | article-2
           |__ index.md
           |__ image42.png

Customize

CSS style

You must provide a style.css at the directory root of your blog. If none found, a default one is generated. Generate it first, then customize it.

Custom header

If a file named header.html is found at the directory root of your blog, it will be inseted on top of each pages.

That's all folks

Yes, no configuration file, it's enough generic for a simple blog. The C++ code has been heavily generated by IA.
