It had to be done by someone.

• A front page with a list of all Articles from a SharePoint Online site
• An SSG page that generates static pages for all articles
• WebParts supported:
  • rte

Create a file called tenant.json with the following properties (and never deploy this to production):

{
    "tenantId": "YOUR_TENANT_ID",
    "clientID": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    "clientSecret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET"
}

Obviously you'll need to create an application for this in Azure AD. It's pretty simple, just create a bare minimum app and create an API token. Then make Sites.Read.All the only API permission for the app.

First you need to figure out the ID of your site. It's a bit tricky to find, but there is a tool for that

node util/find-site.js My site

Copy the id somewhere, we are going to need it later as a value for the SITE_ID environment variable.

Next up, the actual build:

The manual way

Run get-id.js to get a temporary authentication token:

$ node util/get-id.js

Copy the access_token printed as we'll need it next.

Now you can run the build:

$ ACCESS_TOKEN='YOU_KNOW_THIS' SITE_ID='YOUR_SITE_ID' yarn build

The more automated way

Just run:

./build.sh

Finally the result will be in the newly created out directory that can be deployed to production.

If you have jq installed and you are using Linux, then things will be a bit easier for you.

Find a site ID:

node ./util/find-site.js My site

To start dev mode:

SITE_ID='YOUR_SITE_ID' ./dev.sh

To run the build:

SITE_ID='YOUR_SITE_ID' ./build.sh
