Diary of a lazy developer

Tech posts from my projects. Each post lives in its project repo as POST.it.md and POST.en.md, and gets published here automatically by a GitHub Action.

• Theme: leonids (Jekyll)
• Automation: publish.yml
• Sources: sources.yml

Publishing

The Action runs automatically every Saturday at 6:00 UTC. To trigger it manually:

1. Go to Actions > Publish posts
2. Click “Run workflow” > “Run workflow”

Or from CLI:

gh workflow run publish.yml

Cross-posting

EN posts are cross-posted automatically. All secrets go in repo Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions > New repository secret.

dev.to (draft)

1. On dev.to: Settings > Extensions > DEV Community API Keys > Generate API Key
2. Secret: DEV_TO_API_KEY

Mastodon (public post with image)

1. On mastodon.social: Settings > Development > New Application > select read, write and profile
2. Copy the token: MASTODON_ACCESS_TOKEN

Development

docker compose up

If something is not updated,

rm -rf _site .jekyll-cache .jekyll-metadata
touch .jekyll-metadata; chmod 777 .jekyll-metadata
touch Gemfile.lock; chmod 777 Gemfile.lock
docker compose up

Not commit (there are also in the .gitignore file)
