# Essay Publishing Pipeline

Move written content from draft through editing, formatting, and multi-platform distribution.

## Pipeline Architecture

```
Draft → Edit → Format → Metadata → Build → Publish → Distribute
  ↑                                                      │
  └──────────── Feedback Loop ───────────────────────────┘
```

### Stage Definitions

| Stage | Input | Output | Tools |
|-------|-------|--------|-------|
| Draft | Ideas, notes | Raw markdown | Editor, voice notes |
| Edit | Raw markdown | Polished markdown | Linter, peer review |
| Format | Polished markdown | Structured content | Frontmatter, templates |
| Metadata | Structured content | Enriched content | Tags, categories, SEO |
| Build | Enriched content | HTML/PDF output | SSG, Pandoc |

### Static Site Generator Integration

```python
# Build script for essay collection
from pathlib import Path
import yaml
import markdown

def build_essays(source_dir: str, output_dir: str):
    essays = []
    for md_file in sorted(Path(source_dir).glob("*.md")):
        text = md_file.read_text()
        frontmatter, content = text.split("---\n", 2)[1:]
        meta = yaml.safe_load(frontmatter)
        if meta.get("status") != "published":
            continue
        html = markdown.markdown(content, extensions=["fenced_code", "tables", "toc"])
        essays.append({"meta": meta, "html": html, "slug": md_file.stem})

    for essay in essays:
        output = Path(output_dir) / f"{essay['slug']}/index.html"
        output.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
        output.write_text(render_template(essay))
