jekyll-remote-include

A Liquid tag plugin for Jekyll that allows remote includes from external sources.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

group :jekyll_plugins do
    gem 'jekyll-remote-include', "~> 1.1.3", github: 'ianjevans/jekyll-remote-include'
end

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-remote-include

Then add the following to your site's _config.yml:

plugins:
  - jekyll-remote-include

💡 If you are using a Jekyll version less than 3.5.0, use the gems key instead of plugins.

Usage

The tag can be used to include the entire contents of a file, or just the content between begin and end tokens, in your Jekyll pages, posts and collections.

To include the entire file:

{% remote_include https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jekyll/jekyll/master/README.markdown %}

To include only a portion of the file, specify the begin and end tokens separated by the pipe (|) character:

{% remote_include https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jekyll/jekyll/master/README.markdown|begin_token|end_token %}

If the linked file doesn't contain the begin or end tokens, the entire file will be included.
