What’s Pluto?
A planet site generator in ruby
that lets you build web pages from published web feeds.
Getting Started
Step 1 – Add all web feeds to your planet configuration
Add all web feeds to add to your planet news site
to your planet configuration file.
Example – planet.ini
:
title = Planet Ruby [rubylang] title = Ruby Lang News link = http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news feed = http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/feeds/news.rss [rubyonrails] title = Ruby on Rails News link = http://weblog.rubyonrails.org feed = http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/feed/atom.xml [viennarb] title = Vienna.rb News link = http://vienna-rb.at feed = http://vienna-rb.at/atom.xml
Step 2 – Auto-build your planet news site
Use the pluto
command line tool and pass in the
planet configuration file. Example:
$ pluto build planet.ini
This will
1) fetch all feeds listed in planet.ini
and
2) store all entries in a local database, that is, planet.db
in your working folder and
3) generate a planet web page, that is, planet.html
using the blank
template pack in your working folder using all feed entries from the local database.
Open up planet.html
to see your planet web page. Voila!
Bonus: Try different templates/theme packs
Don’t like the look and feel of the built-in standard blank theme / template?
Use a different planet theme or design your own.
See the “Planet Templates” site for more free themes / templates including:
