Can't run "rake install[Koenigspress]"

Open jorgedfbranco opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

You state in your README that we should run

$ git clone https://github.com/TheChymera/Koenigspress.git .themes/Koenigspress $ rake install[Koenigspress] $ rake generate

yet, although the first step works as expected,

$ rake install[Koenigspress] rake aborted! No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb)

I'm no ruby developer, so I don't really know what to make of the error message other than noting that running find -type f -iname "*rake"* returns nothing.

How should I proceed?

Thanks

Hi there, and thank you for taking interest in the project. Koenigspress is a theme for Octopress, which has been deprecated a while back in favour of Jekyll. I have no idea how and if it could work without Octopress. I for one have not been able to migrate my blogs from Octopress to Jekyll, and have instead opted to move to Pelican, which has the advantage of being written in a language which is much more usable and which I am much more proficient in than Ruby.

I don't know what else you could try except check whether the theme is indeed still compatible with the base engine you are using --- and if you are able to migrate it, I will happily include your changes :)
