webgen
Ruby command line static website generator that combines content files with templates to produce HTML.
webgen.gettalong.org/repositorydocs
webgen is a command line program that combines content files with template files to generate HTML, so the layout stays separate from the content it wraps. Authors can write pages in several markup languages, and the generator adds menus, breadcrumb trails and news feeds. It regenerates only the items that changed, and the output is a self-contained static site whose links are relative, so it can be opened without a web server.
Worth knowing
The installation page names Ruby 2.0.0 and Ubuntu 14.10 as tested platforms.
