* removed background image and as such it's fixed pixel width
** i.e. the layout is now completely dependent on the basic font size and scales accordingly
* revamped master template and CSS to allow for nodes with varying lengths instead of truncating everything depending on the background width
* increased font size of tag and archive pages
* increased overall line height to improve readability
* improved CSS to e.g. make use of `last-child` instead of adding `last` classes during static site generation
* removed _microblog_ entries from archive as I have more or less stopped using _Twitter_
|
|
* extracted navigation and tag list style into `buttonlist` class
* navigation is now aligned left and non-overlapping on small screens
|
|
* e.g. article and tag support data is now fetched through direct _XPath_ template applications
** this required the introduction of a special `resolve` mode to prevent interaction between support and main content resolution
** in most cases arguments had to be wrapped inside helper constants to enable selection of e.g. article support data via the `@handle` attribute using the current elements `@handle` attribute
* analogously to the recent changes in _StaticXSLT_ this commit aims to improve the XSLT code style used in generating this static website
|
|
* both the CSS and master template markup contained cruft from the previous blog version and its slightly different layout
* removed unnecessary distinction between footer and its _taglist_ as the old footer element is now only a _taglist_
** promoted previous `last_line` to `footer` as it is the actual footer
* unified the different list styles as much as possible
** e.g. introduced new `topline` attribute instead of declaring the title-separator line for each style separately
** removed `taglist` class by declaring its rules directly in the `tags` id
** removed now unnecessary `archivtag` class
** introduced `sparselist` class which enables list such as the one contained the latest microblog entries to have extra padding
* merged `list_tags` helper template into primary master template
** this separation was not only unnecessary but decreased the readability as it provided no real encapsulation
|
|
* eliminated `last_item` list item class by fixing its padding
|
|
* this was done to match the recent extraction of the generic static site generation framework into a separate project
|
|
|
|
* all datasources are generated as namespace-less XML
* the resulting documents have to define the XHTML namespace
** i.e. the article and page contents have to be copied into the XHTML namespace
* implemented XHTML copy helper templates
* modified page templates accordingly
* defined XHTML namespace in the master template
|
|
* modified master transformation accordingly
* fixed small syntax and grammer error in about page content
** missing dot and missing "and"
|
|
* there is no reason for generating absolute links as the resulting pages will be served on their own domain
|
|
|
|
* expanded "02_data/pages.xsl" transformation to include pages in subfolders
* "03_meta/categories.xsl" transformation generates a categorized view of all pages simmilar to the one provided for tags by "03_meta/tags.xsl"
* "99_result/category/category.xsl" transformation generates category overview pages
* added basic project related pages inside the "projects" category
|
|
* wrap text in "xsl:text elements to clean up the output
|
|
* implemented language selection for automatic syntax highlighting
** language selection requires the language to be used to be passed as a class of the code element
** kramdown enables easy definition of this class attribute
* kramdown offers more functionality such as table and class attribute support
* updated all articles accordingly
|
|
* disable indentation in both the page and datasource master stylesheets
** indentation was interfering with correct output of formatted code
* simplified call to formatter helper template
|
|
* base url is now a local webserver for more realistic testing
** i.e. otherwise the atom feed is not served correctly
* article, page, tag and stream pages are now generated as "index.html" inside appropriately named directories
** this is needed for pretty urls that actually work
|
|
* atom was choosen in favor of RSS mainly because it is not easily possible to generate the required RSS timestamp in xalan-c (day of the week required)
* modified master template accordingly
|
|
* returns "Start" for the first page instead of "Page 0"
** this corresponds to the navigation
* changed "Start" navigation link in master template
* i.e. the index page is named "0", server config will have to be changed accordingly
** thought about generating it as "index" directly
** while this is possible using the XPath evaluation functionality of the target meta attribute the lack of a if-statement in XPath 1.0 would require a very ugly workaround (e.g. the answer to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/971067/is-there-an-if-then-else-statement-in-xpath)

* stream transformation is iterated over the paginated article datasource implemented in 854eab6
* stream template contains navigation generation for traversing the article stream
|
|
* xalan and/or InputXSLT namespace should only be included when they are actually required
|
|
* merges the content of the "00_content/meta.xml" file with additional data such as the available tags
* simplifies providing a basic datasource to every result transformation
* modified master, article and tag page template accordingly
|
|
* the master template generates a list of all available tags into the footer
** this currently requires the unaugmented tags datasource to be included into every template making use of the master template
|
|
|
|
* otherwise it is not easily possible to add additional datasource layers between the content and result generation level
* changed meta url appropriately
|
|
* "source" directory contains layers as subdirectories
** ordered by their name
** e.g. layer 0 is "00_content" and contains the content alongside some metadata
* transformations contained within the "source" layers are processed sequentally
* transformations define their requirements in a "meta" variable
** the "meta" variable is interpreted by the core transformation "generate.xsl"
* requirements are currently datasources and target information
** every transformation may have one datasource of type "main"
*** this data source offers e.g. the option to iterate over it
** every transformation may have a arbitrary number of "support" datasources
*** e.g. "meta" is a support datasource
** the target node may provide a fixed target path or a Xpath to be evaluated
* the result of each transformation is written to the appropriate layer of the "result" directory
* this approach to XSLT based static site generation should be quite flexible and offer good expandability
** e.g. adding new datasource options and types
