Export everything to static html

[ArsNeurochirurgica]

Hi together,

I came across PicoCMS and I am converting my Worpdress site to PicoCMS right now. It looks really great and I am a big fan of its simplicity! However is there a way in the current release or in one of the upcoming releases to export everything as a static html site? Right now I don't need the search function and it seems the only reason not to export everything to a static html site would be the need of a search function.

Thank you very much in advance and great job on this project!

Pico is no static website generator, so there's currently no built-in feature to export the contents of a Pico website to static HTML pages. However, exporting ("crawling") a website is no big deal in general. You could use e.g. wget -r to create a local static copy of your website. Try something like the following:

wget -r -l inf -N -k "http://localhost/pico/"

Refer to the manpage of wget to learn about the used and all other available options.

Would it be a reasonable feature request to add an export to a static site as a default feature?

Edit: Seems like it is already on the roadmap -> #317. Awesome 😄 👍
