Noddity Retrieval
This module provides an API to a Noddity data store full of posts and a list of said posts.
You give it an http(s) root, and that's all it needs to provide
- an async getter function to download parsed post objects
- an async getter function to download an array of post objects based on the index.json file from the root directory
So I have this idea, right? Where your blog posts could just be a directory with an index file and a bunch of markdown files, just being served out onto the internet.
The idea is that your root directory of posts contains:
- An index.json file, containing a JSON array of strings representing the file names that are your "official" blog posts, in order.
- Whatever markdown files you want to be accessible, with metadata stored in a format amenable to text-metadata-parser.
Usage
var retrieve = 'http://remote-server.com/blogfiles/' retrieve
This is the core module of the Noddity cms.
