wintersmith-tag-pages is a plugin that generates tag page indexes for either:
- every tag used in every article
- a set of specified tags defined in
config.json
This repo is meant to be used as a plugin for Wintersmith-generated websites. To use this plugin, simply setup a wintersmith website and follow the setup instructions below.
Setting up the plugin is very simple:
npm install wintersmith-tag-pages
Alternatively, you can define the plugin as a dependency in your package.json
file and run:
npm install
In your config.json
file, you must define the location of the plugin:
"plugins": [
"./node_modules/wintersmith-tag-pages/"
]
You may configure how the tag page generators creates the tag index pages.
Simply add a tagPages
configuration object hash in config.json
:
"tagPages": {
"perPage": 2
}
The following is a list of all available options. You can define these in the
tagPages
configuration object hash.
Name | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
template | tags.jade |
template file to generate the tag pages |
first | tag/%t/index.html |
permalink for the first page in each tag index |
filename | tag/%t/%d/index.html |
permalink for every subsequent tag page |
filter | [] |
array of tags to generate pages for; if empty, pages for all tags will be generated |
perPage | 2 |
number of articles to display for each tag page |
- %t - The tag name
- %d - The page number
Once you have completed the setup and configuration, the plugin will be invoked during each wintersmith build.
Be sure to create a template file that can be used to render the tag pages. By
default, the plugin will look for a file called tags.jade
, but you can
override this setting using the configuration options described above.
The specified template will have access to the following data:
- prevPage - The article object of the previous page in a tag's index.
- nextPage - The article object of the next page in a tag's index.
- tag - The name of the tag whose index is being rendered.
- articles - The list of articles for the current tag page.
Use this data to help build the template used to generate your tag pages. Don't
forget to check whether or not prevPage
and nextPage
exists.
