    Hello,

    i wrote an extra for revolution that
    generates static files from resources.

    What i basicly wanted is
    a MoveableType-Like Render-System
    that makes the contents of my sites lightning fast.

    I’m shure you want it and i want to share.
    I’m setting up a github repro within the next days.

    Or is there allready a revolution-solution in the public domain i could not find?

        Thanks for this offer. This could be useful sometimes. I am interested in testing it.
        Is your github repo online?

          Hello blixa,

          Thanks for response.

          The repro is still not on github, but every post to this topic gives me more motivation to create one.

          I use it allready for two small sites, but it is not very userfriendly to setup. That version doesn’t even use the MODxExtJs stuff for the CMPs, i just throw some jquery in, shaked, not stirred and voila! Hit’n’run-style. A prototype.

          Now the task is to make it userfriendly. I got used to ExtJS.

          I’m trying to figure out the best way to tell what resource to write to its static representation and what to left to the php-processes. TVs to the rescue. But what about resources that don’t have a template? Is there a way to setup options/settings for a resource independently from a template? As far as can tell, no, but maybe i missed something..

              Great! I made my last site in Evo because my client wanted it static - and it didn’t work! (all site navigation links were wrong).
              As I’m an occasional web designer I’ve no way to test it. Hope soon. Thank you anyway

                (all site navigation links were wrong).

                Were they generally wrong or wrong when a document changed (removed or moved or..) ?

                  I would say generally wrong.
                  As I asked in ths topic, I had this menu output:
                  <li><a href="http://localhost/" title="Home" >Home</a></li>
                  <li class="active"><a href="/multimedia-ip.htm" title="multimedia IP" >multimedia IP</a></li>
                  <li><a href="/encryption-ip.htm" title="encryption IP" >encryption IP</a></li>
                  <li><a href="/downloads.htm" title="downloads" >downloads</a></li>
                  <li class="last"><a href="/company.htm" title="company" >company</a></li>

                  While I was expecting:

                  • the first one pointing to "index.htm" instead of "http://localhost/"
                  • all the others, linking to files in the same directory, without the starting "/"
                  All the links internal to the site have similar problems.Luckilly it’s not many pages and I could run some "find & replace" in notepad++, but I can’t ask to do the same to my clients.
                  (more in ths topic)
                  Tahnk you for your interest

                    Hi Purepll,

                    I tried to install your Statiker add-on, seems to be exactly what I need, thanks for that.

                    Until now I can generate all my html files, the structure is ok, but all the files have a weird content. Here an example of my index.html:


                    
                    HTTP/1.1 200 OK
                    Date: Wed, 12 Oct 2011 23:06:16 GMT
                    Server: Apache/2.0.63 (Unix) PHP/5.2.11 DAV/2
                    Content-Length: 614
                    Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1
                    
                    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">
                    <html>
                     <head>
                      <title>Index of /swiss-rooms.ch/export</title>
                     </head>
                     <body>
                    <h1>Index of /swiss-rooms.ch/export</h1>
                    <pre><img src="/icons/blank.gif" alt="Icon "> <a href="?C=N;O=D">Name</a>                    <a href="?C=M;O=A">Last modified</a>      <a href="?C=S;O=A">Size</a>  <a href="?C=D;O=A">Description</a><hr><img src="/icons/back.gif" alt="[DIR]"> <a href="/swiss-rooms.ch/">Parent Directory</a>                             -   
                    
                    <hr></pre>
                    <address>Apache/2.0.63 (Unix) PHP/5.2.11 DAV/2 Server at localhost Port 8888</address>
                    </body></html>
                    
                    
                    



                    Did I forgot something special?
                    Thanks for your help,
                    Sylvain

                      Is there documentation for how this is supposed to work? I still haven't had success getting it to create any files.

                      When I first went into Statiker, I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do. I clicked on Create Site, and put in a name, context and path, but it rejected the path, even though it was a legitimate path. I tried a few options, then after several attempts, I decided to try creating a new directory in the assets/components/statiker folder, and Statiker finally accepted that. I then clicked on build all, and it showed the progress bar, and said that it successfully finished, but there aren't any files anywhere that I can find. Since there is no documentation that I can find, I don't know what to do next or where to look for the files. The process took only a few seconds for 1000 pages, so I'm thinking that the process actually failed, even though it said it finished successfully.

                      What is supposed to happen? Where do I find the files?
