*Looking for a New Maintainer*

*Notice*: I am currently not really using ruby and jekyll right now, and I am looking for someone who is interested and willing to take over its maintenance. If you're interested, please contact me using one of the methods below:

** Overview

This plugin adds [[http://orgmode.org/][Org mode]] support to [[http://jekyllrb.com][Jekyll]] and lets you write posts
and pages in Org.

** Related Projects

What's the difference with org2jekll
You don’t need to any org-publish-project-alist to starting write post, just start with any editor that org-mode supported

What’s the difference with org-jekyll?
You don’t need to add some alien yaml in your org-mode file. You add specific org-mode headers and this will be used to format the jekyll post.

What’s the difference with happyblogger?
No more external ruby script.

** Requirements

- Jekyll
- org-ruby

** Installation
*** Short version

For experienced Jekyll users, you need to do 2 things to get
~jekyll-org~ to work :

- Include the gem in your ~_config.yml~
- Include the gem in Gemfile

*** Long version

To use ~jekyll-org~ with Jekyll, you need to have Ruby RubyGems and
Jekyll installed. See how to do that [[http://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/][here]].

Create a new Jekyll project ~my-site~ run:

#+begin_src sh
jekyll new my-site
#+end_src

Create a Gemfile in the root of the project, and add at least the
following lines:

#+begin_src ruby
source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'jekyll' , '>= 3.0.0'
gem 'jekyll-org', '>= 1.1.0'
#+end_src

Install the gems with bundler:

#+begin_src sh
bundle install
#+end_src

To use the new converter add the following line to your ~_config.yml~:

#+begin_src yml
plugins:
- jekyll-org
#+end_src

:warning: If you are using Jekyll < 3.5.0 use the gems key instead of plugins.

** Usage

Create a new file with =.org= extension in =_posts=, and write the post
with Org. That is all! Generate your Jekyll site as you usually do.

** Front matter

Instead of YAML the front matter is configured in the usual Org way,
with no lines.

Below is an example of an Org post, featuring front matter, tags, tables,
liquid templating and syntax highlighting. To render this example, remove
the leading hash symbols (#) at =#+begin_src= and =#+begin_end= beforehand
(this is a workaround for GitHub's org rendering).

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
#+TITLE: Jekyll and Org together
#+LAYOUT: post
#+TAGS: jekyll org-mode "tag with spaces"

This is a blog post about Jekyll and Org mode.

** org-table demo

| a | b | c | d | e |
|---+---+---+---+---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |

** Liquid demo
#+liquid: enabled
#+foo: hello world
{{ page.foo }}

or

{{ site.time | date_to_xmlschema }}

** Code highlighting
Jekyll-org also offers powerful support for code snippets:
##+begin_src ruby
def print_hi(name)
puts "Hi, #{name}"
end
print_hi('Tom')

#=> prints 'Hi, Tom' to STDOUT.
##+end_src
#+END_EXAMPLE

The value of =#+TAGS= is parsed into a list by splitting it on spaces,
tags containing spaces can be wrapped into quotes.

** Liquid templating

By default the all content is exported to raw HTML with org-ruby, but
you can add =#+liquid: whatevervalue== in the header. Then you can use
[[http://docs.shopify.com/themes/liquid-documentation/basics][Liquid]] tags.

For example, if your Org file contains

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
#+liquid: enabled
#+foo: hello world

{{ page.foo }}

or

{{ site.time | date_to_xmlschema }}

#+END_EXAMPLE

then you will get output like

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE

hello world


or


2014-07-02T08:20:28+08:00


#+END_EXAMPLE

*** Site wide config

Alternatively, if you'd rather enable liquid by default for every
org file being converted, you can enable it in your /_config.yml/
file.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
org:
liquid: true
#+END_EXAMPLE

** Source code highlighting

To enable source code highlighting, run =bundle add pygments.rb=. If your Jekyll
theme has built-in support for syntax highlighting, you're all set! Otherwise, add a =pygments=-compatible
CSS file to your site's =/assets/css/= folder. You can find a bunch of CSS themes for =pygments= in
[[https://github.com/richleland/pygments-css][this repository]], or create your own (some related =pygments= documentation is [[https://pygments.org/docs/styles/][here]]).

Then, add a source code block as you would in Org, for example Ruby:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
#+BEGIN_SRC
require 'rubygems'
require 'org-ruby'
data = IO.read(filename)
puts Orgmode::Parser.new(data).to_html
#+END_SRC
#+END_EXAMPLE

And the output will have code highlighting:

#+BEGIN_SRC ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'org-ruby'
data = IO.read(filename)
puts Orgmode::Parser.new(data).to_html
#+END_SRC
