=======
Too Easy is an minimal static site generator which is barely more than 30 lines.
#### So what's the catch?
It only supports html as source.
#### How does it work?
It uses (part of) the [Hakit](https://github.com/recurziv/hakit) haskell web toolkit and the
[Haquery](https://github.com/recurziv/haquery) HTML manipulation and template engine.
Too Easy currently contains only two functions: one for loading the posts
```haskell
> import TooEasy
> :t loadPosts
loadPosts :: String -> IO [(Hakit.Document, Haquery.Tag)]
```
And one for loading a template file:
```haskell
> :t loadTemplate
loadTemplate :: String -> IO Haquery.Tag
```
Basically, a post looks like this:
```html
title: I am so clever I must share my wisdom on teh internetz!!!!4!
author: joe
---
I rant about sum clever things here...
```
The first part (above the "---") will get parsed to a Hakit.Document (which is basically a map, see Hakit docs), the part below that will be parsed to a
Haquery.Tag.
A template looks like this:
```html
Title placeholder
Content placeholder
```
Now, since you have a list of (metadata, html content), and a html template, and Haquery, a library which allows you to manipulate HTML,
you can easily see how we can build sites with that: insert the metadata and/or html content into the template, and write that to a file. Repeat until blog is exported.
Too easy, right?
