KB4IT 0.7.8

Introduction
KB4IT is a static website generator based on Asciidoctor sources mainly
for technical documentation purposes.
You can see some demos here: https://github.com/t00m/kb4it-adocs

Motivations

The main aim is to provide an easy way to write my technical documentation.
Don’t care about the formatting and focus on the contents.
To allow teams to manage their knowledge database easily.
Do not depend on third software products like word processors or complex web applications.

Features

Pros

Writing documentation: Documents must be in Asciidoctor format which is easy to learn.
Finding documents: Once a document is converted to html, properties can be browsed. Moreover, property pages have filters and a search entry to filter by title.
Publishing your repository: all necessary files are inside a directory. Browse it or copy it to your web server.
Serverless: There is no need for a web server. Of course, you can use one if you please.
Smart compiling: Only those documents added or modified are compiled.
Use the default themes or build your own custom theme
By modifying templates, it might be integrated with Github or Gitlab.

Cons

Not to much documentation at this moment
No online editor: At this moment, KB4IT doesn’t include any online editor. You must create or edit your documents with your preferred editor.
No dynamic search: KB4IT was developed to be as simple as possible.
No dependencies at all excepting Asciidoctor (as text processor and publishing toolchain) and Python (the programming language used).
API is not stable
Most of the requirements are tailored to my own necessities which might not be the same as yours.

Installation

From source
If you have used this app before, it might be necessary to uninstall it before:
pip3 uninstall kb4it -qy
Then, install it:
python3 setup.py install --user

Pypi package
pip3 install kb4it --user -U

Execution
The most typical usage would be:
$HOME/.local/bin/kb4it -source /path/to/asciidoctor/sources -target /path/to/target/directory -log DEBUG
If templates remain the same, force a new compilation:
$HOME/.local/bin/kb4it -source /path/to/asciidoctor/sources -target /path/to/target/directory --log DEBUG -force
If the directory containing the asciidoctor sources have a theme, it will be used. However, you can specify one:
$HOME/.local/bin/kb4it -source /path/to/asciidoctor/sources -target /path/to/target/directory -theme mytheme -log DEBUG
You can also specify any_datetime_attribute to sort your documents:
$HOME/.local/bin/kb4it -source /path/to/asciidoctor/sources -target /path/to/target/directory -sort Published -log DEBUG

Download
