Peli-Kiera is a theme for the Pelican static site generator. Thanks to the Hugo-Kiera project for the inspiration.
Live-Demo at https://aleylara.github.io/Peli-Kiera
Pelican-Docs will guide you through the initial installation.
Once inside the project directory, Peli-Kiera theme can be installed by cloning the repo into your
themes path and pointing to it in your pelicanconf.py
.
# Create a themes directory if it doesn't exists
cd project-dir
pelican-quickstart
mkdir themes
cd themes
git clone https://github.com/aleylara/Peli-Kiera
# Add path to your theme directory in pelicanconf.py
THEME = 'themes/Peli-Kiera'
In order to get read times and links between articles, the theme requires pelican-readtime and neighbors plugins.
cd project-dir/
# Please note the plugins repo is quite large and you only need the two.
git clone https://github.com/getpelican/pelican-plugins
# Add path to your plugins directory in pelicanconf.py
PLUGIN_PATHS = ['pelican-plugins']
PLUGINS = ['readtime', 'neighbors']

# Generate articles and populate output
pelican content -o output -s pelicanconf.py

- Atom/RSS feeds
- Mobile friendly
- Google analytics
- Comments via Disqus
- Font awesome icons
- Modified pagination
- Image placements
The pagination is presented with the current page and 3 neighboring pages on either side.
<< < 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 > >>
Images can be moved on page by adding the tag #float-right
, #float-left
, #mid
and #full
in your markdown.
![Title]({static}/images/my_image-600x400.png#float-right "camera icon")
Similarly, the placement can also be applied to html directly by wrapping images in a <figure class="placement">
tag.
<figure class="float-left">
<img src="path-to/images/my_image-600x400.png" alt="camera icon">
</figure>
Minimum image width of 600px is recommended. Images scale accordingly on smaller screens.
