Migrate to Jekyll-Plugin GEM? #65

Closed desirtech closed 4 years ago

desirtech commented 4 years ago

adding the plugin contents into _plugins is easy enough but without tests, abstracted class methods, and a .gemspec script, the plugin though handy in conception is in a kind of beta. I've forked this repo for my own purposes - processing data_content in _data files into an API call and on completion realized I'd prefer this as a contained plugin to remove or add easily fromgemand_config`. I think several other issues 'like CSV imports' would be resolved as a result too thanks to a more robust and standard architecture. if nothing else, it's a creative commons so I'll gladly credit this properly but I beieve it's worth considering. . .

oh, and why not `jekyll-page-generator' for a repo/plugin name? 😌

Thanks for the suggestions. Migrating to a gem is a good idea: there is in fact an old pull request I should have incorporated some time ago.

You are most welcome to contribute with change requests to address some of the open issues you are mentioning, such as CSV import.
