Configuration is managed by Config.toml in the Scraps project. Only the base_url and title variables are required. Everything else is optional. All configuration variables used by Scraps and their default values are listed below. # The site base url base_url = "https://username.github.io/repository-name/" # The site title title = "" # The site language (compliant with iso639-1, default=en) lang_code = "en" # The site description (optional) description = "" # The site favicon in the form of png file URL (optional) favicon = "" # The site timezone (optional, default=UTC) timezone = "UTC" # The site color scheme (optional, default=os_setting, choices=os_setting or only_light or only_dark) color_scheme = "os_setting" # Build a search index with the Fuse JSON and display search UI (optional, default=true, choices=true or false) build_search_index = true # Scraps sort key choice on index page (optional, default=committed_date, choices=committed_date or linked_count) sort_key = "committed_date" # Scraps pagination on index page (optional, default=no pagination) paginate_by = 20 Common Configuration Examples Personal Knowledge Base base_url = "https://your-username.github.io/knowledge-base/" title = "My Knowledge Base" description = "Personal notes and documentation" sort_key = "committed_date" paginate_by = 50 Team Documentation base_url = "https://company.github.io/docs/" title = "Team Documentation" description = "Internal team knowledge and processes" lang_code = "en" timezone = "America/New_York" sort_key = "linked_count" color_scheme = "only_light" Minimal Setup base_url = "https://my-site.com/" title = "Simple Docs" build_search_index = false

#Search Search index format Scraps can build a search index using the Fuse JSON schema as shown below. [ { "title": "Search", "url": "http://127.0.0.1:1112/scraps/search.html" }, { "title": "Overview", "url": "http://127.0.0.1:1112/scraps/overview.html" }, ... ] Search libraries Scraps content perform searches with fuse.js using an index. We are considering WASM solutions like tinysearch for future performance improvements in our deployment environment. Configuration If you are not using the search function, please modify your Config.toml as follows. See the Configuration page for details. # Build a search index with the Fuse JSON and display search UI (optional, default=true, choices=true or false) build_search_index = false

#CLI ❯ scraps build This command processes Markdown files from the /scraps directory and generates a static website. Source Structure ❯ tree scraps scraps ├── Getting Started.md └── Documentation.md Generated Files The command generates the following files in the public directory: ❯ tree public public ├── index.html # Main page with scrap list ├── getting-started.html ├── documentation.html ├── main.css # Styling for the site └── search.json # Search index (if enabled) Each Markdown file is converted to a slugified HTML file. Additional files like index.html and main.css are generated to create a complete static website. Examples # Basic build ❯ scraps build # Build with verbose output ❯ scraps build --verbose # Build from specific directory ❯ scraps build --path /path/to/project After building, use Serve to preview your site locally.

#CLI ❯ scraps serve This command starts a local development server to preview your static site. The server automatically serves the files from the public directory at http://127.0.0.1:1112. Examples # Basic serve ❯ scraps serve # Serve from specific directory ❯ scraps serve --path /path/to/project Use this command to check how your site looks and functions before deployment.

#CLI ❯ scraps search <QUERY> This command searches through your Scraps content using fuzzy matching to find relevant information across your knowledge base. Examples # Basic search ❯ scraps search "markdown" # Limit results to 10 ❯ scraps search "documentation" --num 10 The search uses fuzzy matching across file names, content, and Wiki-link references, displaying results ranked by relevance.

#CLI ❯ scraps tag This command lists all tags found in your Scraps content, helping you understand the tag distribution across your knowledge base. Examples # List all tags ❯ scraps tag # List tags from specific directory ❯ scraps tag --path /path/to/project

#CLI ❯ scraps init <PROJECT_NAME> This command initializes a new Scraps project. It creates the following structure: ❯ tree -a -L 1 . ├── .gitignore # Git ignore patterns for Scraps projects ├── Config.toml # Project configuration file └── scraps # Directory for your Markdown files Examples # Initialize new project ❯ scraps init my-knowledge-base ❯ cd my-knowledge-base # Initialize with specific path ❯ scraps init docs --path /path/to/workspace After initializing the project, proceed to Build to generate your static site.

#CLI #Templates ❯ scraps template This command generates scrap files from Markdown templates located in the /templates directory. Commands List Templates ❯ scraps template list Lists all available templates in the /templates directory. Example output: daily_note book meeting project Generate Scrap from Template ❯ scraps template generate <TEMPLATE_NAME> [OPTIONS] Generates a scrap file from the specified template. Examples # List available templates ❯ scraps template list # Generate from template with metadata-specified title ❯ scraps template generate daily_note # Generate with command-line title ❯ scraps template generate meeting -t "Weekly Standup" # Generate with environment variables ❯ TITLE="My Book Review" scraps template generate book References Template features and syntax: Templates Template samples: Sample templates
