But I wanted more. I wanted the code to be as modular as possible, so it's easy in the future to add commands, project logs, and components. Also, I wanted some appealing features like tab completion and shortcuts.
As you can imagine, it was not easy to implement all the features I had imagined. But I'm pretty confident I'm on the right track now. +
The commands are all contained in one file, and one can easily add or remove them, add flags and other attributes and change the function called when the command is requested. +
The project files are contained in a separate repository and folder on my server, which is just used as a Docker volume. This means they can be updated without rebuilding the entire project.
After the CLI website was done, it was my main homepage for a few months.
Then that I created the "normal" part which basically is a blog and my portfolio.
I use https://www.drone.io/[Drone] for this job which is self-hosted too.
The Docker container is pushed and pulled in a self-hosted registry, so it should be safe if I ever want to include secrets and private data into the project.
The project files are first built with https://asciidoctor.org/[Asciidoctor] to check their validity.
Then a script pulls them on the server.
As the projects git directory on the server is mounted in the docker container only a quick reload is necessary so the files are available on the server.
