Jekyll Webmention.io Supplements

Not everything we want comes via Brid.gy, so we can directly query services to find links to our posts and supplement the webmention.io results.

Requires jekyll-webmention_io.

Twitter

Requires Twitter gem:

gem install twitter

The get_twitter_webmentions.rake rakefile will search for your posts and pages via the Twitter Search API. You will need to register your site as an app and acquire the necessary keys. Store them in the following environment variables:

• TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY
• TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET
• TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN
• TWITTER_ACCESS_SECRET

You may need to update line 5 of the rakefile to point to your root folder. The current line assumes this rakefile is contained in /tasks/rake/ and merged into your master Rakefile using

Dir.glob('tasks/rake/*.rake').each {|r| load r}
