Upgrading from an older version of Jekyll? A few things have changed in 1.0.
|
|
|
|
### The Jekyll Command
|
|
|
|
For better clarity, Jekyll now accepts the commands `build` and `serve`.
|
|
Whereas before you might simply run the command `jekyll` to generate a site
|
|
and `jekyll --serve` to view it locally, now use the subcommands `jekyll build`
|
|
and `jekyll serve` to do the same. And if you want Jekyll to automatically
|
|
rebuild each time a file changes, just add the `--watch` flag at the end.
|
|
|
|
### Custom Config File
|
|
|
|
Rather than passing individual flags via the command line, you can now pass an
|
|
entire custom Jekyll config file. This helps to distinguish between
|
|
environments, or lets you programmatically override user-specified defaults.
|
|
Simply add the `--config` flag to the `jekyll` command, followed by the path
|
|
to one or more config files.
|
|
|
|
<div class="note info">
|
|
<h5 mardown="1">The `--config` flag overrides your `_config.yml` file</h5>
|
|
<p markdown="1">If you use the `--config` flag, Jekyll will ignore your
|
|
`_config.yml` file. Want to merge a custom configuration with the normal
|
|
configuration? No problem. Jekyll will accept more than one custom config
|
|
file via the command line. Simply pass the path to both files with the latter
|
|
file overriding the former.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
#### As a result, the following command line flags are now deprecated:
|
|
|
|
* `--no-server`
|
|
* `--no-auto`
|
|
* `--auto` (now `--watch`)
|
|
* `--server`
|
|
* `--url=`
|
|
* `--maruku`, `--rdiscount`, and `--redcarpet`
|
|
* `--pygments`
|
|
* `--permalink=`
|
|
* `--paginate`
|
|
