|
|
A Bash script that handles blog posting
|
|
|
|
You can read [the initial blog post](http://mmb.pcb.ub.es/~carlesfe/blog/creating-a-simple-blog-system-with-a-500-line-bash-script.html) for more information.

|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Download bb.sh into a public folder of yours and run it:
|
|
|
|
./bb.sh
|
|
|
|
This will show the available commands
|
|
|
|
To create your first post, just do:
|
|
|
|
./bb.sh post
|
|
|
|
When you're done, access the public URL for that folder and you should see the index
|
|
file and a new page for that post!
