Stenope

The static website generation tool for Symfony.

CLI

Why another static site generator?

We're Symfony developers that couldn't find a static website generator that bended to our needs.

We needed a way of generating static websites that:

Stenope does that.

In your existing Symfony app:

composer require stenope/stenope

If you plan to create a new app from scratch, you can give a try to the Stenope Skeleton.

bin/console -e prod cache:clear
bin/console -e prod stenope:build ./static

Your Symfony app is now a static website in: ./static! ✨

Next: learn more about Stenope's content management system.

Stenope was designed with these goals in mind:

Stenope meets your needs, not the other way around.
Stenope runs in any Symfony project out of the box, connects with standard Symfony components and feels natural to Symfony developers.
Stenope is highly extensible: features can be replaced, added or removed.

🔍 Stenope scans your Symfony app (like a search engine crawler would) and dumps every page into a static HTML file.
🛠 Stenope provides tools for loading and parsing various data sources (like local Markdown files or distant headless CMS).
🖌 Stenope enriches the parsed data by applying a series of processors (like Syntax Highlighting, slug generation, etc.).
🧲 Stenope finally hydrates your custom PHP objects with the enriched data and provides interfaces for listing and retrieving them (like an ORM would).
⚙️ Stenope gives you a lot of control over the whole process by providing entrypoints, interfaces and default implementations that are entirely replaceable.

Stenope is not a ready-to-use bloging system: but you could quickly write your own blog system with it!
