render.rb
Render an include file from anywhere in your Jekyll project
How to use this plugin
- Add the _render.rb file to your _plugins directory. See more info on plugins.
- Use the render tag to include a file from anywhere else in your project. Filepaths are relative to the present working directory.
Examples
Example 1
{% render about/_bio.markdown %}
This will import source/about/_bio.markdown and render it inline. Use an underscore at the beginning of the filename to prevent Jekyll from generating an about/bio.html (Jekyll doesn't convert files beginning with underscores).
Example 2
{% render templates/includes/header.html %}
If you have a folder for your include files that you want to include in your templates and compile using Jekyll, you can include the markup from those files using this tag.
