Papyrus is a fast and responsive theme built for the Pelican site generator. It is styled using Tailwind CSS. It supports dark mode as well as site search via a plugin.
This theme requires the pelican-search, pelican-neighbors, pelican-readtime, and pelican-toc plugins. The first three plugins can be installed using Pip. Pelican-ToC will be installed manually. We will also need Stork and beautifulsoup4 as dependencies.
$ pip install pelican-search
$ pip install pelican-neighbors
$ pip install pelican-readtimeCreate two directories, themes and pelican-plugins, inside the root level of your project. Clone the Papyrus theme inside the themes directory that you created.
$ cd myBlog
$ mkdir themes pelican-plugins
$ git clone https://github.com/pelican-themes/papyrus.git themes/papyrusNow clone the pelican-toc plugin repo (not available via Pip) into your pelican-plugins directory and install beautifulsoup4, which is required by this plugin.
$ git clone https://github.com/ingwinlu/pelican-toc.git pelican-plugins/pelican-toc
$ pip install beautifulsoup4Papyrus is designed to support search functionality. However, you will still need to have Stork installed on the system that will generate your site. Verify the stork CLI tool is availability on your $PATH by running stork -h, and if not, go ahead and install it.
# Install Stork using Homebrew
$ brew install stork-search/stork-tap/stork
# If you already have the Rust toolchain, you can install Stork with Cargo
$ cargo install stork-search --lockedFollowing is an example pelicanconf.py settings file. Please change the values to meet your needs.

└── venvImages can be placed on the page by adding custom class names such as image-left, image-right, image-center in your Markdown content.
Similarly, placed images can be given a size using custom classes: image-thumbnail, image-small, image-medium, andimage-large
You can use <img/> tags along with the custom image classes straight in your Markdown content.
<img src="{static}/images/screenshot.png" alt="screenshot" class="image-left image-medium" />
<img src="{static}/images/screenshot.png" alt="screenshot" class="image-right image-thumbnail" />
Alternatively you could use inline styling.
<img src="{static}/images/screenshot.png" alt="screenshot" style="width:200px;" />In order to have a responsive video thumbnail, the <iframe> tags must be wrapped inside the <div class="aspect-w-16 aspect-h-9"></div> in your Markdown content.
<div class="aspect-w-16 aspect-h-9">
<iframe width="736" height="414" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/TmWIrBPE6Bc" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen>
</iframe>
</div>If you would like to make any local theme customizations, Tailwind CSS configuration files are included with the theme. First go into the Papyrus directory and install development packages via: npm install
Then run the development server that watches for your changed Tailwind classes inside the templates folder and updates main.css on the go.
# Initial installation of packages
$ cd themes/papyrus
$ npm install
# JIT compiled main.css
$ npm run dev
The settings file now has placeholders for your robots.txt and favicon.ico files.
Please note these files are not included. You must create and add them yourself.
