Install

Add this file to _plugins in the root of your Jekyll site.

Configure

This plugin reads settings from the _config.yml file. Add settings as attributes or an array of attributes for multiple files.

Example

jekyll_get:
  data: team
  json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/team/'

Or

jekyll_get:
  - data: team
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/team/'
  - data: projects
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/projects/'

Use in a liquid template as if it were a local data file:

{% for member in site.data.team %}
  Hello {{member[1].first_name}}
{% endfor %}

Optionally, set a cache attribute to save a local copy of the data in the _data directory:

jekyll_get:
  - data: team
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/team/'
    cache: true
  - data: projects
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/projects/'
    cache: true
  - data: pif_team
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/pif_team/'
    cache: true
  - data: pif_projects
    json: 'https://18f.gsa.gov/hub/api/pif_projects/'
    cache: true
