This plugin will generate optimized images inside your source folder. Here's a sample config:
# MiniMagick config
mini_magick_config: &mini_magick_config
interlace: JPEG
colorspace: sRGB
source: assets/images/shop/products
destination_subfolder: optimized
quality: 80
sampling-factor: "4:2:0"
mini_magick:
previews:
<<: *mini_magick_config
source_subfolder: previews
resize: "600x600"
This gem allows you to easily use MiniMagick to crop and resize images in your Jekyll project, according to a preset defined in your config file.
Install the gem:
[sudo] gem install jekyll-minimagick
In a plugin file within your Jekyll project's _plugins directory:
# _plugins/my-plugin.rb
require "jekyll-minimagick"
Define presets in your _config.yml file, like this:
# _config.yml
mini_magick:
thumbnail:
source: img/photos/original
destination: img/photos/thumbnail
resize: "100x100"
medium:
source: img/photos/original
destination: img/photos/medium
resize: "600x400"
This configuration will create a 100x100 thumbnail for each image in img/photos/original and put it in _site/img/photos/thumbnail and a 600x400 image in _site/img/photos/medium.
Already using bundler to manage gems for your Jekyll project? Then just add
gem "jekyll-minimagick"
to your gemfile and create the following plugin in your projects _plugins directory. I've called mine bundler.rb. This will automatically require all of the gems specified in your Gemfile.
# _plugins/bundler.rb
require "rubygems"
require "bundler/setup"
Bundler.require(:default)
