Jekyll::API

Create APIs from Jekyll page data.

Follow Jekyll's instructions for installing Jekyll plugins. The Jekyll::API plugin is available from the jekyll-api gem.

1. Define data as front-matter in your Markdown Jekyll pages.
2. Enjoy the API.

For example, the Jekyll::API plugin will generate a /people/jill/data.json file

{
  "title": "Jill"
}

from the Jekyll page data in /people/jill.md.

---
title: Jill
---
Hi, my name is {{ page.title }}

If you set permalink: pretty in _config.yml, the resulting HTTP endpoints will be:

• HTML - /people/jill/
• JSON - /people/jill/data.json

For post it will generate a /people/jill/post.json file with complete post data.

1. Fork it (https://github.com/gregoryjscott/jekyll-api/fork).
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature).
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature').
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature).
5. Create a new Pull Request.
