Lih2

Lih2 is a bash script I use to maintain my personal blog. It uses wrang to compile markup posts into HTML. No runtimes, no package managers, no config files beyond a simple shell script --just download one file and go. No setup. No fuss.

What it does

- init --scaffolds a new blog with posts, drafts, compiles, and a starter config- new --writes a post (or pass -- to keep it private until ready)- edit rm list publish --manage your posts and drafts from the terminal- make --compiles every post, regenerates the index, prunes stale output, and writes an RSS feed.xml - serve --spins up a local preview server (needs python3)- wrang auto-install --if wrang isn't on your PATH, lih2 downloads the latest release for you

Blog config

A plain blog.conf file lets you set the title, author, description, and URL. That's it. No YAML, no TOML, no JSON.

Who is this for?

I was tired of having to set up tools that should just work out of the box. Lih2 isn't portable (it is just a shell script), but for a personal Linux blog it's all I need. If you're interested, visit the github repo and check out the README.
