Go Jekyll
When I grow up, I want to be a Go implementation of Jekyll.
Status
This project is missing more functionality than it implements. It may accidentally work on tiny or simple sites.

Install
go get -u osteele/gojekyll/cmd/gojekyll
Sometimes this package benefits from my unmerged improvements to the acstech/liquid library. If you want to use my fork instead:
cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/acstech/liquid
git remote add osteele https://github.com/osteele/liquid.git
git pull -f osteele
(See articles by Shlomi Noach and Francesc Campoy for how this works and why it is necessary.)
Usage
gojekyll build # builds into ./_site
gojekyll serve # serves from memory, w/ live reload
gojekyll help
Liquid Template Server
The embedded Liquid server isn't very compliant with Shopfiy Liquid syntax.
You can run a "Liquid Template Server" on the same machine, and tell gojekyll
to use this instead.
This is currently about 10x slower than using the embedded engine, but still 5x faster than Ruby jekyll
.
- Download and run (liquid-template-server)[https://github.com/osteele/liquid-template-server].
- Invoke
gojekyll
with the--use-liquid-server
option; e.g.:
gojekyll --use-liquid-server build
gojekyll --use-liquid-server serve
Neither the embedded Liquid server nor the Liquid Template Server implements very many Jekyll Liquid filters or tags. I'm adding to these as necessary to support my own sites.
Develop
Install package dependencies and development tools:
make setup
Test:
make test
make lint
gojekyll render index.md # render a file to stdout
gojekyll render / # render a URL to stdout
gojekyll variables / # print a file or URL's variables
./scripts/gojekyll
is an alternative to the gojekyll
executable, that uses go run
each time it's invoked.
Profiling:
gojekyll --remote-liquid profile
go tool pprof gojekyll gojekyll.prof

Hugo isn't Jekyll-compatible (-), but actually works (+++).
Jekyll, of course.
This project is a clean-room implementation of Jekyll, based solely on Jekyll's documentation and testing a few sites.
