Hey folks, I’m attempting to get custom_collections to play nice with a hash of authors in a blog post frontmatter. I’d like it behave like tags, but that’s not happening. Maybe I’m missing something.
In some_post.html.md.erb:
---
author:
- ben
- jerry
---
In config.rb:
blog.custom_collections = {
author: {
link: "blog/author/{author}.html",
template: "blog/templates/author.html",
},
}
Anyone have any ideas?
This commit looks like the following could work:
collection :authors, # or maybe :tags, not sure if this is a hardcoded collection type
where: proc { |resource|
resource.data.author
},
group_by: proc { |resource|
if resource.data.author.is_a? String
resource.data.author.split(',').map(&:strip)
else
resource.data.author
end
}
But the commit is from 2014. The API might have changed, but I didn’t find anything more recent.
