Collections

Jekyll

Reference Manual

@see Jekyll collections documentation

Collections are a great way of grouping related content. The y must be defined in the _config.yml file as in the following example:

# Define Jekyll collections
collections:
  software-development:
    name: Software Development
    permalink: "/:collection/:path/"
    output: true
  system-administration:
    name: System Administration
    permalink: "/:collection/:path/"
    output: true
  drafts:
    output: false

In the previous example name is a custom optional property that contains a human readable name for the collection. The property permalink establishes the format of the url for the pages in the collection. Finally, the output property states wether the collection will be outputted in the site or not.
