Simple Blogging via Git Push
2 comments
I can suggest you my howto configure Flask-FlatPages with OpenShift to achieve (almost) exactly what you want: http://www.codingnot.es/recycling-part-2/
The static generation part is not there, but there is Frozen-Flask for that: http://packages.python.org/Frozen-Flask/

Like github pages ? http://pages.github.com/
Simple blogging engine using Git to author and version your blog posts. Create a new text file (markdown format) for a new post, make edits to it using commits, and push to see it live.
The Details -----------
This would be implemented as a service that received a Git push in order to deploy your new data.
Upon receiving a deploy via "git push", a static blog generator (Jekyll?) would run transforming your changes into a static website, deployed to a web server or potentially an S3 bucket.
Viability / Interest? ---------------------
* If this existed today, would you use it? * Does it exist, and I'm just unaware of the service? * Any advice / inputs on the technical implementation?
I know it's Yet Another Blogging Engine, but since starting a full-time job I haven't shipped a side project since http://rewordio.us last year - I'm looking for something I can develop quickly, that could be useful to people, and potentially even grow over time.
Consider this a request for feedback / proposal. Maybe I should have started a Kickstarter project... :)
