metalsmith-prefixoid

This is a metalsmith plugin which prefixizes internal urls.

Let prefix be /pref. In this case plugin will work by following way:

• http://example.com/sub/dir/ -> http://example.com/sub/dir/ (doesn't change)
• ../relative/path -> ../relative/path (doesn't change)
• another/relative/path -> another/relative/path (doesn't change)
• /internal/absolute/path -> /pref/internal/absolute/path (prefixizes)

Also it can replace all relative paths by absolute if there is configure parameter convert_relatives is set to true.

Usage

var prefixoid = require('metalsmith-prefixoid');
    ...
  .use(prefixoid({
    prefix: '/base_url'
  }))

Array of options is supported.

.use(prefixoid([{...}, {...}, {...}]))

It's also possible to set defaults for each item in array. Properties of object from first argument will be defaults for every array item of second argument:

.use(prefixoid({...}, [{...}, {...}, {...}]))

Options

One of meta or prefix is required, all other are optional:

• meta: 'some.name.space' - will take prefix from metalsmith.metadata().some.name.space
• prefix: '/base/url' - take prefix from config.
• tag: 'a' - (default: 'a') transforms only elements of this tag.
• attr: 'href' - (default: 'href') attr with URL to modify.
• convert_relatives: false - (default: false) converts relatives to absolutes, works if tranfrom is undefined.
• pattern: ['*.md'] - (default: ['**/*.md', '**/*.html', '**/*.htm']) process only satisfied files.

Styling:

• span_currents: true - will replace <a>-links to current page with <span> elements.
• links_class: 'a-link' - css class of <a>-links.
• spans_class: 'span-link' - css class of spans which were links.
• all_links_class: 'all-link' - css class of every link processed with plugin.

Very optional options:

• is_current: function(current_url, url) - will recognize if link is current. By default it takes equality to one of options:
  • current_url
  • current_url + '/'
  • current_url + '/index.html'
• transform: function(url)->url - Check if url must be transformed and transforms url.
• transform_file_path - bool or function(path)->path. Default false. If true it replaces .html with / to recognize if path is current. It does not affect path field. If function str -> str is passed then prefixoid converts path with it.

Config example:

...
  .use(react_templates({
    directory: 'templates',
    baseFile: 'base.html',
    nonStatic: true
  }))
  .use(prefixoid({
      meta: 'site.base_path',
    },
    [{
      span_currents: true,
      links_class: 'omich-link_a',
      spans_class: 'omich-link_current',
      all_links_class: 'omich-link'
     },{
      selector: 'link',
      attr: 'href'
     },{
      selector: 'script',
      attr: 'src'
     }
    ]))
  .build(function(err) {
    if (err) {
      throw err;
    }
  });
