A Jekyll generator to create pages for each element of a collection.
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add jekyll-detail-generator
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install jekyll-detail-generator
First, add the plugin to _config.yml:
plugins:
- jekyll-detail-generator
Then, configure the generator so that it knows how to read your collection:
detail_page_gen:
- collection: galleries
children_property: arts
layout: artdetail
title_property: title
url_property: identifier
In this case, the generator would look in the _galleries folder and scan through each file. It would expect the elements of the collection to be under the property "arts", and for each element to then contain a title and identifier property. Title will be used to title the page, identifier will be used to generate a unique url in the form of "/filename/url_property". Each generated page will use the layout artdetail.html, which is in turn passed each property of the element under "item".
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake test
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
