Installation

Add Shokunin to your Rust project:

shokunin = "0.0.30"

Basic implementation:

use staticdatagen::compiler::service::compile;
use std::path::Path;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Define the paths to the build, site, content and template directories.
    let build_path = Path::new("build");
    let content_path = Path::new("content");
    let site_path = Path::new("public");
    let template_path = Path::new("templates");

    compile(build_path, content_path, site_path, template_path)?;

    Ok(())
}
