ContextualDAT

Adds a Generate Website shortcut to the Windows background context menu.

Note that this shortcut will not appear when right clicking on files or folders. The click must be on the background area. Clicking the shortcut will create the following subdirectory structure in the folder where the context menu was activated:

{Root}
 └── website #
      ├── model-a
      │    ├── index.html
      │    ├── script.js
      │    └── styles.css
      └── model-b
           ├── index.html
           ├── script.js
           └── styles.css

All files created are empty to allow for easy copy/pasting.

Installation

This is manual for the moment but, luckily, isn't too involved. I'll build an installer if this sees any real usage.

1. Download the .zip file in the Latest Release.
2. Extract the contents to a new folder.
3. Move ContextualDAT.exe to the root of your C: Drive.
   • You may get an access-denied dialog stating that you need to provide administrator permission. If so, click Continue.
4. Back up your registry (Always air on the side of caution when modifying the registry).
5. Double-click the file ContextualDAT.reg.
   • A warning should appear that says "Adding information can unintentionally change or delete values and cause components to stop working correctly. [...] Are your sure you want to continue?"; Click Yes.
   • A confirmation dialog will appear stating that the keys and values have been added to the registry; Click OK.
6. Delete the folder created in step 2.
7. Congrats, you've successfully installed ContextualDAT! The context menu entries should appear and be functional immediately with needing to restart.

Uninstallation

1. Download the .zip file in the Latest Release.
2. Extract the contents to a new folder. 3 Right-click the file ContextualDAT.reg and open it with a text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, etc.).
3. On every line that begins with [, change it to begin with [-. For example if it starts with [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE... change it to [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE....
4. Save the file, then double-click it to run the registry modification.
   • A warning may appear that says "Removing information can unintentionally change or delete values and cause components to stop working correctly. [...] Are your sure you want to continue?"; Click Yes.
   • A confirmation dialog will appear stating that the keys and values have been removed to the registry; Click OK.
5. Delete the folder created in step 2.
6. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to your C: Drive
7. Delete ContextualDAT.exe and follow through any dialog boxes that appear.v
8. Congrats, you've successfully uninstalled ContextualDAT! The context menu entries should disappear immediately with needing to restart.
