Jekyll Purgecss

A Jekyll plugin for Purgecss.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jekyll-purgecss'

And then add this line to your application's _config.yml:

# _config.yml

plugins:
  - jekyll-purgecss

css_dir: "<css_dir>" # defaults to "css"

jekyll-purgecss only runs in production, so make sure that JEKYLL_ENV=production on the server where you build your site.

Usage

Make sure you have purgecss installed and has its binary located at ./node_modules/.bin/purgecss.

Add your Purgecss configuration to a purgecss.config.js file in the root of your repository.

// purgecss.config.js

module.exports = {
  // These are the files that Purgecss will search through
  content: ["./_site/**/*.html"],

  // These are the stylesheets that will be subjected to the purge
  css: ["./_site/css/site.css"] 
};

Tailwind CSS

If you are using Tailwind CSS, you'll need to add a custom extractor. More can be read on the Tailwind documentation.

module.exports = {
  content: ["./_site/**/*.html"],
  css: ["./_site/css/site.css"],

  // Tailwind CSS config
  extractors: [{
    extractor: class {
      static extract(content) {
        return content.match(/[A-Za-z0-9-_:\/]+/g) || [];
      }
    },
    extensions: ["html"]
  }]
};

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec 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 tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
