Buster

Super simple, Totally awesome, Brute force static site generator for
Ghost <http://ghost.org>__.

Start with a clean, no commits Github repository.

Generate Static Pages. Preview. Deploy to Github Pages.

Warning! This project is a hack. It’s not official. But it works for me.

The interface

setup [--gh-repo=<repo-url>]

Creates a GIT repository inside static/ directory.

generate [--domain=<local-address>]

Generates static pages from locally running Ghost instance.

preview

Preview what’s generated on localhost:9000.

deploy

Commits and deploys changes static files to Github repository.

add-domain <domain-name>

Adds CNAME file with custom domain name as required by Github
Pages.

Buster assumes you have static/ folder in your current directory (or
creates one during setup command). You can specify custom directory
path using [--dir=<path>] option to any of the above commands.

Don’t forget to change your blog URL in config.js in Ghost.
