README

        
This is a Jekyll plugin to evaluate Ruby code in the frontmatter.

If you want to use it, copy the Ruby file into your _plugins folder.

The plugin will find and execute all code in frontmatter values matching the regex `eval()`.


For example

```md

---

date: 'eval(site.time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))'

---

```

will render the current time when building.

You can access everything from Ruby, the current `page`, the entire `site` etc..
