Jekyll-FTP

Commands

  • jekyll-ftp deploy - Deploy your site via FTP with the preconfigured settings.
  • jekyll-ftp clean - Remove all the files from the preconfigured remote_dir.

Installation

Add the gem to your Gemfile.

# Gemfile

gem 'jekyll-ftp'

Add the gem to your plugins in your _config.yml.

# _config.yml

Configuring your _config.yml File

Since Jekyll uses _config.yml, Jekyll-FTP uses this too.

Jekyll-FTP needs 3 configuration settings:

  • username - Your FTP server username.
  • server_url - The URL for your FTP server (can also be an FTP).
  • remote_dir - The remote directory where your site is to be deployed.
username: UserName
server_url: ftp.myserver.com
remote_dir: /public_html

Here's an example configuration..
