## Installation

Add this line to your site's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'jekyll-patreon'
```

Add this configuration to your _config.yml file:

```yaml
####################
# Patreon Settings #
####################

patreon:
enabled: true
design: 'default' # Supports the following desings: default, fancy, minimal, streamlined, reversed, swapped
title: 'Example title'
metercolor: 'green' # Supports the following colors: red, green, orange, red nostripes, green nostripes, orange nostripes, blue nostripes
toptext: 'Example top text' # Text that appears in before the progress bar (optional)
bottomtext: 'Example bottom text' # Text that appears in after the progress bar (optional)
showgoaltext: true # Display the goal text?
showbutton: true # Display the "Become a patron" button?
username: 'Your username here'
default_lang: "en" # The default language to use (to avoid writing twice the same text from Patreon)
```

## Usage

Simply just put the following tag where you need this:

`{% patreon %}`

### i18n

To support languages just use [jekyll-language-plugin](https://github.com/vwochnik/jekyll-language-plugin) configuration. Or if you don't use it, do the following steps.

First, in your main index.html (or wherever you need the i18n support) declare the following lines:

```yaml
---
layout:
language: en
---
```

Or if you want to support several languages in the same page:

```yaml
---
layout:
languages:
- en
- es
---
```

Then, in "_data/lang/" create one file for each lang.

> Example: `en.yml` and `es.yml`.

Then, write the translations of you goals like this:

```yaml
#################
# Patreon Goals #
#################

patreon_goal_0: "..."
patreon_goal_1: "..."
patreon_goal_2: "..."
# etc etc...
```

There you will need to create as much translations as the number of goals that your Patreon page have. (**Note:** starting index is 0 (zero))
