I'm currently building an ultralight publishing system to preserve
an old database-backed site that got trashed a year or two ago.
I don't have any intention of adding new articles, so I don't need
a live database. I wrote a script that read rows from the database and
wrote them into ".html" files that look like
<?php
$post_data=array(
"SID" => "20070202304034",
"TITLE" => "The title of this post"
...
);
I'm just about to use "auto_prepend_file" configuration directive to
run another PHP file that renders the page based on the contents of
$post_data.
I expect to get excellent performance this way, but still have the
flexibility of changing the way files are rendered without having to go
back to the database.
