The Last Human by anonymous

>Anthro barbarians overwhelm and sack the capital of the human empire, long weakened by fragmentation and in-fighting, deposing their imperial family and leading to a century of bloody fragmentation
>Petty king after petty king fight each other over the remains of the once great nation, and the formerly prosperous humans suffer the brunt of it
>However for all their pride and sneering towards their now laid low foes, the only thing that the warring anthro tribes can agree on is that, at their prime, the humans were unstoppable, and a subconscious feeling of awe and respect remains, however buried

>a multitude of warriors, would-be-kings, raiders and criminals are after you
I don't care that the threadly thing to do is pick one to protect me against the others.
What I want to do is construct a fortress of doom full of booby traps and evil minions, and watch through my crystal ball as these wannabe protagonists fail and die in their selfish mission.

Rentry Metadata Docs

Metadata is Rentry's system that allows for full page customization while keeping its minimalistic style. It works by letting you add commands and values that each will modify the page in some way. See the Example tab for quick reference.

Each Option is part of a group that defines what it modifies. These groups are:

PAGE: Metadata for the web page, such as page title.
SHARE: Metadata for the web page to be used as snippets by other websites, such as Twitter or Google.
OPTION: Options that control how the page functions.
ACCESS: Accesibility options or view preferences.
SECRET: Options that allow you to store information that will not be readable by others.
CONTAINER: Controls for the box surrounding the content on the page.
CONTENT: Controls for the content itself.
CONTROL: Coming soon!

Options always start with their respective group name, for example: SHARE_TITLE

Each Option may have a fixed list or range of Values, explained on this page. If you get it wrong, the error message should provide detailed feedback.

General Use

To list a metadata option, you must add it to a new line in the metadata box with the format: OPTION = value

A single Option can have multiple values, separated by spaces, that will control it in more detail or for different situations. For example, giving two values to CONTENT_TEXT_COLOR will set the color for light and then dark mode.

Value Mapping: Some Options with multiple values will behave slightly differently depending on how many values you give. For example, CONTAINER_PADDING can be given one, two, three or four values. Using fewer than 4 will re-use the same values again for different sides of the container. To describe this we will provide a value mapping for each Option and count, to show you what the behavior will be.
If giving CONTAINER_PADDING 4 values, these will be applied in the following way:
Top Right Bottom Left
CONTAINER_PADDING = 5px 10px 20px 40px
This is how it will be applied: top = 5px, right = 10px, bottom = 20px, left = 40px

Value Lists: Other Options with multiple values will affect more things as values are added. For example, FONT_SIZE will change more types of content as more values are added.
Within this helpsheet, we will list what each value does and in what order. Content font looks like this (commas just for clarity here, don't use them):
CONTENT_FONT = base, p, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, li, link, quotes, code
And as a real world example:
CONTENT_FONT = 12px 1.5rem 5rem 4rem 3.5rem 3rem 2.8rem 2.5rem 1.5rem 1.5rem 2rem 1.3rem

Units: Each Option has a set list of possible values that are then validated to ensure they are permitted. When these values are numbers they may be qualified by a unit, such as px: 4px. Each Option has a list of available units and a range of available values for each unit. This means that it might be possible to set as high as 1500px but only up to 100%.

Decimals: Some Values can be decimals and each have a limit to the amount of numbers allowed after the decimal place.

Require and Require one tell you when an Option must be paired with another Option. With Require, all listed Options must be present. With Require one, only one of them must be present.

Validations

Each Value submitted is validated according to an internal checking system that is re-used between different Options. This means that we can explain them here:

max_length: All Options have a max length. This is the total number of characters that can be submitted for this option.
color_name: A color listed within this page (this is the same as the available colors for inline text color) /rentry-text-colors
color_hex: A color defined as a hex (base16). These start with a # and have exactly 3, 6 or 8 letters or numbers afterwards, in the range 0-9 and A-F. When there are 3, the characters are repeated to make them 6 internally. When there are 8, the last two control transparency.
For example: #abc123
Color picker that supports transparency and outputs as a hex
color_rgba: A color defined as a RGBA (red green blue alpha). These have the format RGBA(0, 0, 0, 1). Each of the first three numbers can be between 0 and 255. The fourth number can be a decimal between 0 and 1.
For example: RGBA(255, 0, 120, 0.9)
Color picker that outputs RGBA
css_size: A number followed by one of the listed units, within the listed range. If no-unit, then this requires a bare number.
whitelisted_string: One of the words listed.
font_name: A name of a Google font, with all spaces replaced with underscores. https://fonts.google.com/
url: A link, optionally starting with https:// or http://, followed by any number of subdomains, a domain, a page location, a dot and a TLD.
bool: true or false
rentry_url: A full rentry URL or a /shorthand-url
rentry_url_exists: A check to see if the entered URL ever existed
rentry_url_enabled: A check to ensure the entered URL is currently active and not deleted or disabled.

Tips

You may not list the same option more than once.

The metadata validator is ultra-strict, meaning you can only put in information that is permitted.

Most Options do not have default values. To use the default, just delete the Option.

CONTAINER_INNER_FOREGROUND_COLOR

CONTENT_TEXT_SIZE

Sets the font size, either for the whole page, or for separate types of content depending on how many Values you supply. The first Value, base, sets the root font size of the page, which you can then make use of by setting other Values as relative. It is recommended to set the base as 16px and to use rem for all other values. This will mean that you can then adjust all font sizes by changing only the base value. For example, you set the base as 16px, Heading1 as 2.5rem and Paragraph as 1rem. This then outputs Heading1 as 2.5x16=40px and Paragraph as 16x1 = 16px. Later, you decide you want to font to be larger. So you change the base to 20px. Now, Heading1 will be 2.5x20=50px and Paragraph will be 20x1=20px If you have all Values set, this will make it much easier to control!

Default Value: 16px 1rem 2.5rem 2rem 1.75rem 1.5rem 1.25rem 1rem 1rem 1rem 1rem 14px

Glossary

Don't know what a term means? We'll list everything you need to know here.

Option: A metadata command, always in full capitals and with underscores for spaces, followed by the = sign. For example: PAGE_TITLE =
Value: The information you would like to apply to an Option. This is put after the first = sign and must not break to a new line.
Unit: The descriptor for a number. For example 2px means 2 pixels.
Unit: Px (Pixels): The little square dots a screen is made of. A phone normally has about 350 across and 700 down. A desktop is normally 1200-1600 by 1000.
Unit: %: The percent of the container, or of the thing it is subordinate to (such as when used as a font size unit).
Unit: no-unit: When an option allows for a bare number, it will be listed as this (as when no-unit is not available, a bare number will be read as the default unit for that option). The default unit is always no-unit when this is available.
Unit: hw (Horizontal Width): The percentage of the full width of the page for the device that is viewing. On desktop, changing the window size will affect this.
Unit: vh (Vertical Height): The percentage of the full height of the page for the device that is viewing. On desktop, changing the window size will affect this.
Unit: rem (Root EM): A relative value based on the root font size. Affected by the font itself as the value is taken from width of the font's capital M.
