👻 GhostHost

GhostHost is a Go-based CLI tool designed to autonomously generate technical blog posts in flawless Norwegian Bokmål using an Ollama-powered AI server. It takes a topic as input and produces a ready-to-use MDX file with proper frontmatter.

Features

• 🤖 AI-Powered: Leverages llama3 via Ollama to write high-quality technical content.
• 🇳🇴 Norwegian Bokmål: Specifically tuned to write professional content in Norwegian.
• 📝 MDX Export: Generates .mdx files with title, description, date, and tags in the frontmatter.
• ⏳ Progress Feedback: Includes an animated progress bar while the AI is "thinking."
• 🔗 Smart Filenames: Automatically creates SEO-friendly filenames (slugs) based on your topic.

Prerequisites

• Go: Version 1.25.6 or higher.
• Ollama: An Ollama server running llama3:latest.

Configuration

GhostHost requires you to set an environment variable for your AI server's IP address.

Option A: Use .zshrc / .bashrc (Permanent)

Add this line to your ~/.zshrc (or .bashrc):

export GHOSTHOST_IP="your-server-ip"

Remember to run source ~/.zshrc afterwards.

Option B: Use .env file (Project specific)

1. Copy the example file: cp .env.example .env
2. Open .env and enter your IP address: GHOSTHOST_IP=your-ip-here
