This is a static site generator for my boardgames hobby.
composer installmake (the BGG_USERNAME environment variable with your BoardGameGeek username has to be set)build/index.html in your browser(The deployment to GitHub pages is handled by the GitHub action in .github/workflows/pages.yml)
The download-bgg-data.php script reads the Board Game Geek XML API to retrieve my profile data and stores that as serialized PHP objects on disk (see assets/*.serialized.txt)
The generate-html.php script unserializes the PHP objects and uses them to generate an HTML file in the build/ directory.
The build/ directory will be missing required assets such as CSS and JS files.
Use the make command to copy those into the build/ directory.
Run make download-bgg-data to just download the data from the BGG API.
Run make generate-html to just generate the HTML from the downloaded data (useful for faster development after the data was downloaded once).
Run make clean to cleanup any builds.
