# Ghost User Maker
|
|
|
|
This is a simple webapp that takes in an author's details and exports it in a format that can be imported to
|
|
[Ghost](https://ghost.org). It has been designed as a workaround to the fact that Ghost doesn't let you directly add authors
|
|
from the admin panel without going through the process of inviting them via email.
|
|
|
|
## I just want to add my authors!
|
|
|
|
That's simple! Use the final product at the following link: https://ghost-user-maker.code.snipettemag.com
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
Ghost User Maker is powered by [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) and [Svelte](https://svelte.dev/), with
|
|
[Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com) for dependency management. After cloning this repo, you can get it going using the normal
|
|
process:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn install
|
|
yarn dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will start up a live-reload development server at `http://localhost:8080` which you can access from your browser.
|
|
|
|
### Deployment
|
|
|
|
When you're done with coding and ready to deploy, simply run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output will be saved to the `public/` directory, which can then be deployed to any ordinary static HTTP server.
|
|
That's right, there's no special backend process needed to keep this app running :wink:
|
|
|
|
Similarly, if you want to deploy your site on a service like [Netlify](https://netlify.com), you can use `yarn build`
|
|
as the build command and `public/` as the directory to be published.
|
|
|
|
### Contributing
|
|
|
|
Since this is a simple app, there's not much left to do, but if you feel there's something missing, contributions
|
|
would be welcome! Feel free to open an issue, comment, or pull request as appropriate. And, thanks in advance!
