* Adds RSS auto-generation for files in 'site'mjfernez2021-10-141-19/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds rss_generator.py which contains the main logic for indexing the site directory and generating a feed on startup. It serves as a sort of ad-hoc database which is accessed when /feed.xml is requested. Also corrects various typos, README nonsense, and expands the config options for RSS. Instances of './templates/site' have been replaced with the general BASE_DIR variable in the siteconfig.

* Caching support. Separate views.py in 2 filesmjfernez2021-10-101-9/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds the Flask-Caching module to the software stack and enables the caching of views in a wide variety of ways, but implemented here to be simple to understand to someone new to the concept of caching (aka me). Various documentation and formatting was applied to all files. views.py internal functions (mostly related to filesystem operations of the server). have been moved into view_functions.py

* Clarify siteconfigmjfernez2021-08-251-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | This clarifies what the MAIN_SITE_DIRS option means since one might read it to mean you can put your directories anywhere. Not so, you can only pick which dirs are displayed with that option. Also recommends to not use the secret key unless needed (for what reason, I don't know).
