metalsmith-path v0.3.1

metalsmith-path

Adds 'path' property to each file's metadata, which can be used as a URL.

Installation

$ npm i -S metalsmith-path

CLI Usage

Install via npm and then add the metalsmith-path key to your metalsmith.json plugins, like so:

{
  "plugins": {
    "metalsmith-path": true
  }
}

Javascript Usage

Pass the plugin to Metalsmith#use:

const path = require('metalsmith-path')
metalsmith.use(path({ /* options */ }))

Available options

property

The name of the property (key) where the path will be stored. Default: path.

Example:

metalsmith.use(path({ property: 'urlPath' }))

baseDirectory

The baseDirectory of the site, useful for generating absolute paths. Default: empty.

Example:

metalsmith.use(path({ baseDirectory: '/' }))

directoryIndex

If a directoryIndex is supplied, it will be stripped from the path. Default: disabled.

Example:

metalsmith.use(path({ directoryIndex: '/index.html' }))

This creates URLs such as /blog instead of /blog/index.html.

extensions

If the file's extension isn't found in the provided array then it will be ignored by the plugin. Default: ['.html']

Example:

metalsmith.use(path({ extensions: ['.html', '.pdf', '.jpg'] }))
