nanoc extensions

nanoc is a popular static site generator.

I'll add some little extensions for nanoc here.

filters

abbreviations.rb

Simple nanoc filter to add <abbr> tags.

After reading a YAML document from /content/_data/abbreviations.yam, all occurences of each $abbrev are replaced by a <abbr title="$abbrev">$fulltext</abbr> construct.

The filter currently uses a very naive - and time consuming - regexp approach.

The abbreviations dictionay in /content/_data/abbreviations.yaml has to look like this:

---
  abbreviations:
  - abbrev: HTML
  fulltext: HyperText Markup Language

You'll need a (compile and) routing rule to stop the abbreviations.yaml from being rendered and compiled, i.e. like this:

# ignore everything starting with _
compile %r{/_} do
  nil
end
route %r{/_} do
  nil
end
