Building and cleaning

If you followed along with the previous tutorial, you should now have the
|

|
|
|
example site up and running. By running `stack exec site build`, you created
|
|
|
|
two directories:

|
|
- `_site`, with your site as HTML files, ready to be deployed;
|
|
|
|
- `_cache`, which Hakyll uses internally.

|
|
`stack exec site clean` removes these directories, and `stack exec site
|
|
|
|
rebuild` performs a `clean` and then a `build`.

In general, you want to use `stack exec site build` when you just made changes
|
|
|
|
to the contents of your website. If you made changes to `site.hs`, you need to
|
|
|
|
recompile `site.hs` followed by a rebuild:

At this point, feel free to change some files, `stack exec site build` and see
|
|
|
|
what happens!

You might've noticed that the markdown pages all start with a block:

This is entirely optional, but useful for providing extra information
|
|
|
|
("metadata") about items. All items can have metadata: since it's not really
|
|
|
|
convenient to add such a header to an image, you can also do this using a
|
|
|
|
separate file.

For a file called `images/foo.png`, you can add an `images/foo.png.metadata`
|
|
|
|
file with contents:
