Never heard of this. Worth looking into. – hughdbrown Aug 14 '09 at 02:17

Are you not wanting to have a separate front-end http server, or are you just not wanting to use Nginx? – Matthew Rankin Jan 04 '10 at 14:46

Staticgenerator is designed to be used with a front-end http server. The example configuration as shown on the Github Staticgenerator page is using Nginx as the front-end http server and Apache as the back-end http server.
If you want a static website generator that isn't specifically designed to be used with a front-end http server, you might want to look at Hyde. Hyde is Django powered and statically generates the webpages, which are then placed in a deploy directory. Hyde came out of the developer, Lakshmi Vyas, wanting a Django based Jekyll, which is a static website generator written in Ruby. Lakshmi Vyas did look into Staticgenerator prior to developing Hyde but decided to roll his own.

Apache is not just a "back end" server by any means. I work for a company that uses Apache as their front end server for over 45,000,000 per month. – orokusaki Jan 25 '10 at 15:55

@orokusaki: I was by no means implying that Apache is *just* a back-end server. I was simply citing the sample configuration of Staticgenerator, which uses Nginx as the front-end http server and Apache as the back-end http server. – Matthew Rankin Jan 26 '10 at 04:18
