# Gojekyll
[![][travis-svg]][travis-url] [![][coveralls-svg]][coveralls-url] [![][go-report-card-svg]][go-report-card-url] [![][license-svg]][license-url]
Gojekyll is a partially-compatible clone of the [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com) static site generator, written in the [Go](https://golang.org) programming language. It provides `build` and `serve` commands, with directory watch and live reload.

## Usage
```bash
gojekyll build # builds the site in the current directory into _site
gojekyll serve # serve the app at http://localhost:4000; reload on changes
gojekyll help
gojekyll help build
```
## Installation
### Binary Downloads
1. Ubuntu (64-bit) and macOS binaries are available from the [releases page](https://github.com/osteele/gojekyll/releases).
2. [Optional] To use the `{% highlight %}` tag, you also need [Pygments](http://pygments.org): `pip install Pygments`.
### From Source
Pre-requisites:
1. **Install go** (1) via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh): `brew install go`; or (2) [download](https://golang.org/doc/install#tarball).
2. [Optional] To use the `{% highlight %}` tag, you also need [Pygments](http://pygments.org): `pip install Pygments`.
First-time install:
```bash
go get github.com/osteele/gojekyll
```
[Later] Update to the latest version:
```bash
go get -u github.com/osteele/liquid github.com/osteele/gojekyll
```
[Optional] Install command-line autocompletion:
```bash
# Bash:
eval "$(gojekyll --completion-script-bash)"
# Zsh:
eval "$(gojekyll --completion-script-zsh)"
```
## Status
This project is at an early stage of development.
It works on the GitHub Pages sites that I care about, and it looks credible on a spot-check of other Jekyll sites.
### Current Limitations
Missing features:
- Themes
- Pagination
- Math
- Plugin system. ([Some plugins](./docs/plugins.md) are emulated.)
- Liquid filter `sassify`
- Markdown features: [attribute lists](https://kramdown.gettalong.org/syntax.html#attribute-list-definitions), [`markdown=1`](https://kramdown.gettalong.org/syntax.html#html-blocks).
- `site.data` is not sorted.
- Windows compatibility
Also see the [detailed status](#feature-status) below.
### Other Differences
These will probably not change:
By design:
- Plugins must be listed in the config file, not a Gemfile.
- Liquid is run in strict mode; undefined filters are errors.a
- The wrong type in a `_config.yml` is an error.
- Server live reload is always on.
- `serve --watch` (the default) reloads the `_config.yml` and data files too.
- `serve` generates pages on the fly; it doesn't write to the file system.
- Files are cached in `/tmp/gojekyll-${USER}`, not `./.sass-cache`
- Jekyll provides an (undocumented) `jekyll.version` variable to templates. Copying this didn't seem right.
Muzukashii:
- An extensible plugin mechanism – support for plugins that aren't compiled into the executable.

The theme for in-browser error reporting was adapted from facebookincubator/create-react-app.
The gopher image in the `testdata` directory is from [Wikimedia Commons](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gophercolor.jpg). It is used under the [Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en).
In addition to being totally and obviously inspired by Jekyll and its plugins, Jekyll's solid *documentation* was indispensible --- especially since I wanted to implement Jekyll as documented, not port its source code. The [Jekyll docs](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/home/) were always open in at least one tab during development.
## Related
[Hugo](https://gohugo.io) is the pre-eminent Go static site generator. It isn't Jekyll-compatible (-), but it's highly polished, performant, and productized (+++).
[jkl](https://github.com/drone/jkl) is another Go clone of Jekyll. If I'd found it sooner I might have started this project by forking that one. It's got a better name.
[Liquid](https://github.com/osteele/liquid) is a pure Go implementation of Liquid templates, that I finally caved and wrote in order to use in this project.
[Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com), of course.
