#月桂 Yuegui

MoonBit-native static site generator for technical publishing.

Yuegui treats Markdown (stable) and Typst (experimental) as first-class source formats in a shared site graph. It provides strong build-time diagnostics and emits fast static HTML.

#Features

CommonMark via mizchi/markdown — GFM tables, strikethrough, fenced code with language annotations
Wikilinks — [[/page/]] resolves to <a href="/page/"> with build-time broken link detection
Heading anchors — <h1>-<h6> automatically get id attributes for permalink support
Frontmatter metadata — title, description, date, author, tags propagate from frontmatter to templates
Syntax highlighting — Prism.js (MIT) bundled in default theme (bash, json, markup, css, yaml)
Diagnostics-first — broken links, route collisions, missing frontmatter are build-time errors
Adapter architecture — parsers, renderers, and themes are swappable interfaces

#Prerequisites

MoonBit toolchain
C compiler (gcc or MSVC cl.exe) — only needed for dev/serve (HTTP preview server)

#Quick Start

#As a user — create a new site

yuegui init my-site     # scaffold site project + wrapper scripts
cd my-site
moon update             # fetch dependencies
yuegui build            # build to public/  (WASM, no C compiler needed)
yuegui dev              # preview server    (needs `--target native`)

Your site is a MoonBit project:

my-site/
  moon.mod    ← dependency on Anxiu0101/yuegui
  main.mbt    ← @yuegui.dispatch({ title: "My Site", ... })
  moon.pkg    ← is-main: true
  yuegui.bat  ← wrapper: moon run . -- %*
  content/    ← markdown source files
  theme/      ← layout templates + assets
  public/     ← build output (gitignored)

The wrapper scripts (yuegui.bat / yuegui.sh) let you run yuegui build instead of typing moon run . -- build.

#As a contributor — develop Yuegui engine

git clone https://github.com/Anxiu0101/yuegui
cd yuegui
moon run cmd/main -- build       # build test content
moon run cmd/main -- check       # validate without output
moon run cmd/main -- init x      # test scaffolding

#API Overview

///|
test "dispatch accepts YueguiConfig" {
  let config : @core.YueguiConfig = {
    title: "test",
    description: "",
    language: "en",
    base_url: "",
    source_dir: "content",
    theme_dir: "theme",
    output_dir: "public",
    auto_navigation: false,
    navigation: { nav: [], sidebar: {} },
    markdown_extensions: {},
    plugins: [],
    extra: {},
    typst_mode: "semantic-html",
    typst_fallback: "svg-embed",
    dev_port: 3000,
    dev_host: "127.0.0.1",
  }
  ignore(config)
}

The YueguiConfig struct captures all site-level configuration. Pass it to @yuegui.dispatch() in your site's main.mbt.

#CLI Commands

Command	Description
yuegui init <name>	Scaffold a new site project
yuegui build	Build static site to output directory
yuegui check	Validate content, report diagnostics
yuegui dev	Start preview server with live reload (needs native backend)
yuegui new page <slug>	Scaffold a new page stub
yuegui new post <slug>	Scaffold a new blog post stub

All commands run via moon run (WASM backend) by default — no C compiler needed. The dev command requires --target native for HTTP serving.

#Native Build

Build a standalone executable for environments without MoonBit toolchain:

moon build cmd/main --target native

Output: _build/native/debug/build/cmd/main/main.exe

#Modules

core             Content model, diagnostics, route/link validation
format_markdown  Markdown parser and renderer (CommonMark via mizchi/markdown)
format_typst     Typst adapter (experimental)
theme            Layout loader, template engine, Prism.js syntax highlighting
runtime          Filesystem, server, watcher
cli              Command parsing and dispatch
