is-static-files

Custom StaticFile descendants for Jekyll.

is-static-files is a Ruby gem that extends Jekyll's static file handling capabilities by providing a custom StaticFile class. It allows you to manage static files that either come from a source file or from dynamic content held directly in memory. This flexibility enables programmatically generating or modifying static file content during the Jekyll build process.

• Inherits from Jekyll::StaticFile to seamlessly integrate with Jekyll.
• Supports files backed by an existing source file on disk.
• Supports files created from raw content data without existing source files.
• Custom destination and relative path handling.
• Compatible with Jekyll >= 4.3 and Ruby ~> 3.4.
• Comes with RSpec tests and SimpleCov coverage for easy maintenance.

Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile:

gem 'is-static-files', '~> 0.8.0'

And then execute:

bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

gem install is-static-files

Create instances of IS::StaticFile to represent static files that you want Jekyll to include in the site build.

# From existing source file
file = IS::StaticFile.new(site, '/target/path/', 'example.txt', source: '/full/path/to/src/example.txt')

# From in-memory content with no source file
file2 = IS::StaticFile.new(site, '/target/path/', 'generated.txt', content: 'This is dynamic content.')

# Add these files to the site static files during a generator hook
site.static_files << file
site.static_files << file2

The write method ensures files are copied or written to the destination directory during site generation.

Clone the repository and run:

bundle install
rake spec

This will run the RSpec test suite with coverage reporting.
