# Static Base Preset

This is the foundation I use together with [`static-base`](https://github.com/icidasset/static-base) and [`static-base-contrib`](https://github.com/icidasset/static-base-contrib).
It includes:

- A simple static server (acts like `surge.sh`).
- A simple file watcher.
- A utility function that wraps the `static-base.run` function,
  which makes it a sequence that only runs when needed and logs a message.
- Metadata functions (store_env_info).
- Utility functions for checking the current environment.



## How to use

```js
import { exec, runWithMessageAndLimiter } from 'static-base-preset';
import { read, frontmatter, write } from 'static-base-contrib';


const markdown = (files) => files.map(file => ({
  ...file,
  content: renderMarkdown(file.content),
}));


const sequence = (attr, resultOfPreviousSequence) => runWithMessageAndLimiter
  ('Reading and writing')
  (attr.priv.changedPath)
  (
    read,
    frontmatter,
    markdown,
    [write, attr.priv.buildDirectory]
  )
  (`${attr.priv.sourceDirectory}/*.md`, attr.priv.root);


exec([
  sequence

], {
  rootDirectory: __dirname,
  buildDirectory: 'build',
  sourceDirectory: 'src',

}).then(
  results => console.log('Success!', results),
  error => console.error(error.stack || error.toString())

);
```

__Flags__

```bash
--watch # Watch for changes in the source directory
--serve # Set up a server for the build directory

# Example

npm run dev -- --watch --serve
```
