JekHELP

jekhelp is a command line tool that helps resizing pictures and creating picture gallery files for websites built with Jekyll.

Setup

  • Clone the repo and cd into it
  • Install with pip install .
  • Create a configuration file ~/.config/jekhelp/config.yaml and set site_root to your Jekyll site's source directory (eg. to ~/myblog_source)

Usage

jekhelp --help and jekhelp thumbs --help should reveal all possibilities.

Please open an issue in case you're missing something in the online help. Thank you!

Bash version

You'll also find the predecessors of above's tool in this repo. They are written purely in bash-compatible code. I don't use and maintain them anymore but leave them here for reference.

  • jekallery.sh generates Jekyll collection files (.md) for a photo gallery
  • thumbs.sh generates smaller version of pictures that can be used for the Jekyll gallery
