VoodooPad Automation

I’ve finally gotten it working. I’ve now got a Ruby script that will parse the meta.xml grabbing the category information and move the web export produced html file into a folder named for each category. These category folders are created in the preflight.sh script.

Additionally, since I use relative paths for my site links, I’ve got a shell script that will traverse all the nested folders converting ./ to ../ in every *.html file.

A little magic with the Info.plist file in the Web Export plugin and now all I have to do is a simple web export to create a fully structured web export.

Many thanks to Matt and Gus for the help with the scripts. VoodooPad is awesome. Just remember to make the scripts executable.
