11ty Plugin Podcast Tools

This is a (potentially) quick and dirty plugin that will give you filters for using 11ty to host your podcast.

Installation

npm install eleventy-plugin-podcast-tools

Add the plugin to your 11ty configuration file (probably .eleventy.js).

const podcastTools = require('eleventy-plugin-podcast-tools');

module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {
    eleventyConfig.addPlugin(podcastTools);

    ...
}

Use the filters below to get the information you need from your files.

Filter: Duration

The Duration filter currently only works in Nunjucks (it's a Nunjucks async filter).

Syntax

In a Nunjucks template, you can use the following filter on a variable or expression that contains a path to an audio file in your project.

{{ path_to_file | duration }}

This will return the duration of your audio file in the following (iTunes approved?) syntax: HH:MM:SS i.e. 01:05:22

Filter: File Size

This filter (universal) will return the file size of your audio file in (iTunes approved?) bytes.

{{ path_to_file | filesize }}

Feedback

This was quick and dirty based on this twitter thread. If you have feedback, requests, etc. I'm all ears. If you have ideas for improving, I'll 100% accept pull requests of help.
