mmm

mmm is not the www, because it runs on MoonScript.

live version at mmm.s-ol.nu.

What?

This repo is roughly split into three parts:

• mmm.dom, mmm.component: polymorphic Lua/Moonscript modules for web development.
  [code: mmm - docs]
• mmmfs: the CMS/FS powering mmm.s-ol.nu.
  [code: mmm/mmmfs - article]
• the page contents: includes my portfolio, blog, experiments...
  authored using a mix of Moonscript, Markdown and HTML, thanks to the power of mmmfs.
  [data: root, but you might want to read a bit about mmmfs before you jump in.]

Building & Viewing

mmm is built using tup.
You can build the static content with:

$ tup init
$ tup

Next you can render a sqlite3 mmmfs database using

$ moon build/render_all.moon db.sqlite3

Then, run some kind of HTTP server from within out, e.g. with python 3 installed:

$ cd root
$ python -m http.server

You can then view the website in your browser. The example above will provide it at http://localhost:8000.

During development you may want to automatically rebuild the project as files are changed. You can do this with the following command:

$ tup monitor -f -a

Dependencies

You will need:

• MoonScript: luarocks install moonscript
• lua-sqlite3: luarocks install sqlite3
• lua-http: luarocks install http
• discount: luarocks install discount (requires libmarkdown2)
• busted: luarocks install busted (for testing only)

Live Reloading (during development)

entr is useful for reloading the dev server when code outside the root changes:

$ ls build/**.moon mmm/**.moon | entr -r moon build/server.moon fs
