Personal fork of static git page generator. It generates static HTML pages for a git repository.
This fork uses md4c to convert the README markdown into HTML and then shows it in an about page for each repository, this adds a new dependency. On top of that, the assets have been changed, creating a personal theme. The scripts have also been changed to fit my needs.
Make files per repository:
$ mkdir -p htmldir && cd htmldir
$ stagit path-to-repo
Make index file for repositories:
$ stagit-index repodir1 repodir2 repodir3 > index.html
$ make
# make install
See man pages: stagit(1) and stagit-index(1).
It may be useful to build static binaries, for example to run in a chroot.
It can be done like this at the time of writing (v0.24):
cd libgit2-src
# change the options in the CMake file: CMakeLists.txt
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to OFF (static)
CURL to OFF (not needed)
USE_SSH OFF (not needed)
THREADSAFE OFF (not needed)
USE_OPENSSL OFF (not needed, use builtin)
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake ../
make
make install
A way to extract the gitweb owner for example in the format:
[gitweb]
owner = Name here
Script:
#!/bin/sh
awk '/^[ ]*owner[ ]=/ {
sub(/^[^=]*=[ ]*/, "");
print $0;
}'
#!/bin/sh
cd "$dir"
for i in *; do
test -d "$i" && echo "git://git.codemadness.org/$i" > "$i/url"
done
Using a post-receive hook the static files can be automatically updated. Keep in mind git push -f can change the history and the commits may need to be recreated. This is because stagit checks if a commit file already exists. It also has a cache (-c) option which can conflict with the new history. See stagit(1).
git post-receive hook (repo/.git/hooks/post-receive):
#!/bin/sh
# detect git push -f
force=0
while read -r old new ref; do
hasrevs=$(git rev-list "$old" "^$new" | sed 1q)
if test -n "$hasrevs"; then
force=1
break
fi
done
# remove commits and .cache on git push -f
#if test "$force" = "1"; then
# ...
#fi
# see example_create.sh for normal creation of the files.
#!/bin/sh
name="stagit"
mkdir -p archives
git tag -l | while read -r t; do
f="archives/${name}-$(echo "${t}" | tr '/' '_').tar.gz"
test -f "${f}" && continue
git archive \
--format tar.gz \
--prefix "${t}/" \
-o "${f}" \
-- \
"${t}"
done
Not suitable for large repositories (2000+ commits), because diffstats are an expensive operation, the cache (-c flag) is a workaround for this in some cases.
Not suitable for large repositories with many files, because all files are written for each execution of stagit. This is because stagit shows the lines of textfiles and there is no "cache" for file metadata (this would add more complexity to the code).
Not suitable for repositories with many branches, a quite linear history is assumed (from HEAD).
In these cases it is better to just use cgit or possibly change stagit to run as a CGI program.
Relatively slow to run the first time (about 3 seconds for sbase, 1500+ commits), incremental updates are faster.
Does not support some of the dynamic features cgit has (this is by design, just use git locally), like:
