Yazar
=====

[](#yazar)

*[Русский](README.ru.md)*

Yazar is a static site generator engine for Laravel: Markdown content with front matter is imported into Eloquent documents and rendered through Blade templates, either dynamically over HTTP or as pre-built static HTML.

For Laravel developers who want to:

- Use familiar tools: Eloquent, Blade, Service Container, Facades.
- Extend behaviour through config, not by forking the engine.
- Avoid duplicating Markdown-to-HTML logic across static and dynamic rendering.
- Get static-site speed without a separate templating language.

This repository is the engine only — a Composer package, not a runnable application. It is meant to be installed inside your own Laravel project.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Until the package is tagged, install it as a local path dependency with a symlink, so changes to the engine are picked up immediately by the consuming application:

```
{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "../yazar",
            "options": {
                "symlink": true
            }
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "seryak/yazar": "dev-master"
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev",
    "prefer-stable": true
}
```

```
composer require seryak/yazar:dev-master
```

Once versioned releases exist, this becomes a regular `composer require seryak/yazar`.

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

```
php artisan yazar:install   # publishes config/yazar.php, default views, and demo content
php artisan migrate         # creates the documents table
php artisan build           # generates the static site
```

`php artisan yazar:install` never touches the database — running migrations is always a separate, explicit step.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

All engine configuration lives in the published `config/yazar.php` — see [docs/en/configuration.md](docs/en/configuration.md) for what each option controls.

Per-document view selection is not configured here: it comes from the `view::extends` front matter field on each Markdown file.

Console commands
----------------

[](#console-commands)

- `php artisan build` — imports all configured content, renders it to static HTML, and (if `deploy_target` is set) copies the result there.
- `php artisan yazar:install` — publishes config, default views, and demo content; supports `--force` to overwrite.

Local development
-----------------

[](#local-development)

The engine itself has no runnable Laravel application. `bin/harness-init.sh`creates (or reuses) a git-ignored `harness/` Laravel application inside this repository for manually exercising the package — see [docs/en/harness.md](docs/en/harness.md) for setup, usage, and reset instructions.
