Simon Fell > Its just code > RESTLog

This weblog is based on an implementation of the RESTLog API that I wrote in .NET. The source code is available under the MIT license, for those who are interesting in running / examining / extending this themselves

The server is implemented as a number of custom HttpHandlers that are compiled to a DLL, and has the following features

• Any number of weblog instances can be run on a single ASP.NET install.
• configuration for a particular instance of a weblog is handled entirely in the web.config file.
• template files (ordinary aspx format pages) are used to control the look & feel / rending of the pages.
• A static RSS (1.0) file is generated each time there's a change.
• Support for automatic pingbacks.
• main index page show recent entries, there are also monthly archive pages and individual post pages.
• posts are stored as simple XML files, easy to migrate to/from other blogging tools.

You can download the binaries and source for v0.1, then take a gander at the installation and configurations notes. The latest code is available on SourceForge
