Hi, I sometime had this ruby blog software which just created html files. No rails, no db was needed. It just created html-files looking like a blog but I can’t remember anymore its name ☹ One of you knows it? ---

No rails, no db was needed. It just created html-files looking like a blog but I can’t remember anymore its name ☹ One of you knows it? Perhaps Hobix, an erstwhile project of why’s? See [http://hobix.com](http://hobix.com), or gem install hobix --source [http://code.why.theluckystiff.net/](http://code.why.theluckystiff.net/), or [http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/hobix/](http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/hobix/) Be aware, however, that if you’re running Windows, versions 0.4 and greater won’t work properly. I believe you can still get v0.3b by following the checklist at [hobix.com](http://hobix.com). HTH. Splaestro ---

There are any number of static website development tools out there in ruby. You might look at them and customize as need be. I’ve recently moved 2 small websites to webby ([http://webby.rubyforge.org/](http://webby.rubyforge.org/)). Which I can recommend. There are others I’ve looked at at one time or another: ``` - http://rubyforge.org/projects/yurtcms/ - http://rog.rubyforge.org/ - http://webgen.rubyforge.org/ - http://nanoc.stoneship.org/ - http://rassmalog.rubyforge.org/output/index.html ``` Some are just static site generaters, others have a blogging focus. enjoy, -jeremy ---

rublog was the one I had tested way ago but hobix also looks fitting my needs, I will test both. Thanks for your replys! On Mon, 24 Sep 2007 03:04:29 -0000
