Hello, world!

17 Jul 2013

This is your typical “Hello, world!” blog posts.

I am a node.js and C developer, a DevOps engineer by trade. I write code, I talk to servers. I work at Nodejitsu.

I’m going to blog about things I love working on: architecture, code, JavaScript and C. Maybe more. Most likely more.

What is this blog?

It’s a Jekyll-based blog, hosted with nginx and Joyent.

It uses this very simple plugin I put together for excerpts:

module Jekyll
  module More
    TAG = "<!-- more -->"

    def more(input, url)
      if input.include? TAG
        input.split(TAG).first + "<p class='more'><a href='#{url}'>Read more...</a></p>"
      else
        input
      end
    end
  end
end

Liquid::Template.register_filter(Jekyll::More)

Why not come up with something custom? It’s simple, I like getting stuff done.
