Eleventy default config doesn't grok html-in-markdown exported from breadcrumbs drupal blog

[dckc]

Prompted by a nice looking blog item, I tried Eleventy, a simpler static site generator.

It tried to treat breadcrumbs_0089.md, an html-in-markdown file exported from drupal, as a liquid template and failed.

When I changed {{ to { {, it didn't crash, but the yaml metadata at the top was treated as markdown content.

11ty on cloudflare pages

Prompted by bumping into Kenton today, I picked up cloudflare pages and ran across Eleventy again:

• Deploy an Eleventy site · Cloudflare Pages docs

so I gave it a try:

• MadMode - capsite experiment
• https://github.com/dckc/capsite 8d9120a

Directories and URL paths

I'm struggling to reconcile these:

tool	file path	url path
frozen-flask	./pages/2019/x.md	/2019/x.html
11ty	./posts/xyz.md	/posts/xyz/

The .html part is straightforward, provided I can find a way to avoid copying it into every post:

permalink: "{{ page.filePathStem }}.html"

There are lots of features to migrate:

• [ ] archive by year
• [ ] tag cloud
• [ ] tag style: all-caps tags: no thanks
• [ ] date format: yyyy-mm-dd
• [ ] blue background (non-white, anyway)
• [ ] integrate tweets
