| |
| # JSON parser tag, creating map for use in jekyll markdown |
| # Alex.Heneveld @ Cloudsoft Corp (remove spaces and add the .com) |
| # Released under APL 2.0 |
| |
| # usage: {% jsonball varname from TYPE PARAM %} |
| # |
| # where TYPE is one of {data,var,file,page}, described below |
| |
| # drop this into your _plugins/ folder, then you can write, e.g. |
| # |
| # {% jsonball foo from data { "a": "b" } %} |
| # |
| # and then later refer to {{ foo.a }} to get b inserted |
| |
| # more usefully, you can load it from a variable x, e.g. |
| # {% capture x %}{% include toc.json %}{% endcapture %} |
| # |
| # {% jsonball foo from var x %} |
| |
| # even better, to read from a file, say toc.json |
| # (absolute, or relative to the page being jekylled): |
| # |
| # {% jsonball foo from file toc.json %} |
| # |
| # then e.g. {% for record in jsonball %} {{ record.name }} {% endfor %} |
| # to print out all the name entries (or build a fancy TOC sidebar) |
| |
| # and finally, if that json file might itself contain liquid tags, |
| # or need jekylling, treat it as a page and it will get jekylled |
| # (we use this for toc.json reading from subdirs' toc.json files): |
| # |
| # {% jsonball foo from page toc.json %} |
