Forked from avillafiorita/jekyll-datapage_gen
- Removes "downcase" for generating file names.
Add to _config.yml:
page_gen-dirs: [true|false]
page_gen:
- data: [name of YAML file in ```_data```]
template: [name of template in ```_layouts``` used to render pages]
dir: [directory where pages will be generated; default = same as _data_]
name: [field in data file used to generate page filenames]
title: [field in data file used to generate page titles; default = same as _name_]
extension: [extension used to generate the filename; default = html]
filter: [property to filter data records by]
filter_condition: [Ruby expression to filter data]
page_data_prefix: [prefix used to name variables]
For YAML files with hierarchically structured data, use full path to specify desired subset. For example, using a file named _data/books.yml:
fiction:
- author: Franz Kafka
title: Der Process (The Trial)
date: 1914-15
- author: Jaroslav Hašek
title: The Good Soldier Švejk
date: 1921-23
- author: Robert Musil
title: The Man Without Qualities
date: 1930, 1933, 1943
non-fiction:
- author: Walter Benjamin
title: Berliner Chronik (Berlin Chronicle)
date: 2019
- author: Gershom Scholem
title: Walter Benjamin: the Story of a Friendshi
date: 1981
- author: Moishe Postone
title: Time, Labor and Social Domination: A Reinterpretation of Marx's Critical Theory.
date: 1993
To generate pages for items under "fiction", add this to _config.yml:
page_gen:
- data: 'books.fiction'
template: 'page'
name: 'title'
dir: 'books'
- index_files: [true|false]; overrides value of page_gen-dirs
- filter: a property of each data record that must return a true-ish value for the record to be included in the list of files to be generated. See [[Filtering Data]], below, for more details. /Optional: if not specified, all records from the dataset are included (see also filter_condition)./
- filter_condition: a string containing a Ruby expression which evaluates to a true-ish value. The condition can reference fields of the data being read using the record hash (e.g., record['author'] __ 'George Orwell'). See [[Filtering Data]], below, for more details. /Optional: if not specified, all records from the dataset are included (see also filter)./
- debug: a Boolean value specifying whether the plugin will output information about the configuration and data read. /Optional: if not specified, no debug information is outputted./
A liquid tag is also made available to generate a link to a given page.
For instance {{ page_name | datapage_url: dir }} generates a link to page_name in dir.
