Jekyll plugin to generate an Atom (RSS-like) feed of your Jekyll posts

Jekyll Feed plugin

A Jekyll plugin to generate an Atom (RSS-like) feed of your Jekyll posts

Installation

Add this line to your site's Gemfile:

gem 'jekyll-feed'

And then add this line to your site's _config.yml:

plugins:
  - jekyll-feed

:warning: If you are using Jekyll < 3.5.0 use the gems key instead of plugins.

Usage

The plugin will automatically generate an Atom feed at /feed.xml.

Optional configuration options

The plugin will automatically use any of the following configuration variables, if they are present in your site's _config.yml file.

  • title or name - The title of the site, e.g., "My awesome site"
  • description - A longer description of what your site is about, e.g., "Where I blog about Jekyll and other awesome things"
  • url - The URL to your site, e.g., https://example.com. If none is provided, the plugin will try to use site.github.url.
  • author - Global author information (see below)

Already have a feed path?

Do you already have an existing feed someplace other than /feed.xml, but are on a host like GitHub Pages that doesn't support machine-friendly redirects? If you simply swap out jekyll-feed for your existing template, your existing subscribers won't continue to get updates. Instead, you can specify a non-default path via your site's config.

feed:
  path: /blog/feed.atom

To note, you shouldn't have to do this unless you already have a feed you're using, and you can't or wish not to redirect existing subscribers.

Optional front matter

The plugin will use the following post metadata, automatically generated by Jekyll, which you can override via a post's YAML front matter:

  • date
  • title
  • excerpt
  • id
  • category
  • tags

Additionally, the plugin will use the following values, if present in a post's YAML front matter:

image - URL of an image that is representative of the post (can also be passed as image.path)

author - The author of the post, e.g., "Dr. Jekyll". If none is given, feed readers will look to the feed author as defined in _config.yml. Like the feed author, this can also be an object or a reference to an author in _data/authors.yml (see below).

description - A short description of the post.

Author information

TL;DR: In most cases, put author: [your name] in the document's front matter, for sites with multiple authors. If you need something more complicated, read on.

There are several ways to convey author-specific information. Author information is found in the following order of priority:

  1. An author object, in the documents's front matter, e.g.:
author:
  twitter: benbalter
  1. An author object, in the site's _config.yml, e.g.:
author:
  twitter: benbalter
  1. site.data.authors[author], if an author is specified in the document's front matter, and a corresponding key exists in site.data.authors. E.g., you have the following in the document's front matter:
author: benbalter

And you have the following in _data/authors.yml:

benbalter:
  picture: /img/benbalter.png
  twitter: jekyllrb

potus:
  picture: /img/potus.png
  twitter: whitehouse

In the above example, the author benbalter's Twitter handle will be resolved to @jekyllrb. This allows you to centralize author information in a single _data/authors file for site with many authors that require more than just the author's username.

Pro-tip: If authors is present in the document's front matter as an array (and author is not), the plugin will use the first author listed.

  1. An author in the document's front matter (the simplest way), e.g.:
author: benbalter
  1. An author in the site's _config.yml, e.g.:
author: benbalter

Meta tags

The plugin exposes a helper tag to expose the appropriate meta tags to support automated discovery of your feed. Simply place {% feed_meta %} someplace in your template's <head> section, to output the necessary metadata.

SmartyPants

The plugin uses Jekyll's smartify filter for processing the site title and post titles. This will translate plain ASCII punctuation into "smart" typographic punctuation. This will not render or strip any Markdown you may be using in a title.

Jekyll's smartify filter uses kramdown as a processor. Accordingly, if you do not want "smart" typographic punctuation, disabling them in kramdown in your _config.yml will disable them in your feed. For example:

kramdown:
  smart_quotes:               apos,apos,quot,quot
  typographic_symbols:        {hellip: ...}

Custom styling

Want to style what your feed looks like in the browser? When a XSLT Styleheet file named feed.xslt.xml exists at the root of your repository, a link to this stylesheet is added to the generated feed.

Why Atom, and not RSS?

Great question. In short, Atom is a better format. Think of it like RSS 3.0. For more information, see this discussion on why we chose Atom over RSS 2.0.

Categories

Jekyll Feed can generate feeds for each category. Simply define which categories you'd like feeds for in your config:

feed:
  categories:
    - news
    - updates

Posts limit

By default the plugin limits the number of posts in the feed to 10. Simply define a new limit in your config:

feed:
  posts_limit: 20

Collections

Jekyll Feed can generate feeds for collections other than the Posts collection. This works best for chronological collections (e.g., collections with dates in the filenames). Simply define which collections you'd like feeds for in your config:

feed:
  collections:
    - changes

By default, collection feeds will be outputted to /feed/<COLLECTION>.xml. If you'd like to customize the output path, specify a collection's custom path as follows:

feed:
  collections:
    changes:
      path: "/changes.atom"

Finally, collections can also have category feeds which are outputted as /feed/<COLLECTION>/<CATEGORY>.xml. Specify categories like so:

feed:
  collections:
    changes:
      path: "/changes.atom"
      categories:
        - news
        - updates

Excerpt Only flag

Optional flag excerpt_only allows you to exclude post content from the Atom feed. Default value is false for backward compatibility.

When in config.yml is true than all posts in feed will be without <content> tags.

feed:
  excerpt_only: true

The same flag can be used directly in post file. It will be disable <content> tag for selected post. Settings in post file has higher priority than in config file.

Tags

To automatically generate feeds for each tag you apply to your posts you can add a tags setting to your config:

feed:
  tags: true

If there are tags you don't want included in this auto generation you can exclude them

feed:
  tags:
    except:
      - tag-to-exclude
      - another-tag

If you wish to change the location of these auto generated feeds (/feed/by_tag/<TAG>.xml by default) you can provide an alternative folder for them to live in.

feed:
  tags:
    path: "alternative/path/for/tags/feeds/"

If you only want to generate feeds for a few tags you can also set this.

feed:
  tags:
    only:
      - tag-to-include
      - another-tag

Note that if you include a tag that is excluded a feed will not be generated for it.

Skip development

Use disable_in_development: true if you want to turn off feed generation when jekyll.environment == "development", but don't want to remove the plugin (so you don't accidentally commit the removal). Default value is false.

feed:
  disable_in_development: true

Best Electric Bikes and Scooters for Rental Business or Campus Facility

The electric scooter revolution has caught on super-fast taking many cities across the globe by storm. eScooters, a renovated version of old-school scooters now turned into electric vehicles are an environmentally friendly solution to current on-demand commute problems. They work on engines, like cars, enabling short traveling distances without hassle. The result is that these groundbreaking electric machines can now provide faster transport for less — cheaper than Uber and faster than Metro.

Since they are durable, fast, easy to operate and maintain, and are more convenient to park compared to four-wheelers, the eScooters trend has and continues to spike interest as a promising growth area. Several companies and universities are increasingly setting up shop to provide eScooter services realizing a would-be profitable business model and a ready customer base that is university students or residents in need of faster and cheap travel going about their business in school, town, and other surrounding areas.

Electric Scooters Trends and Statistics

In many countries including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Germany, France, China, Japan, India, Brazil and Mexico and more, a growing number of eScooter users both locals and tourists can now be seen effortlessly passing lines of drivers stuck in the endless and unmoving traffic.

A recent report by McKinsey revealed that the E-Scooter industry will be worth― $200 billion to $300 billion in the United States, $100 billion to $150 billion in Europe, and $30 billion to $50 billion in China in 2030. The e-Scooter revenue model will also spike and is projected to rise by more than 20% amounting to approximately $5 billion.

And, with a necessity to move people away from high carbon prints, traffic and congestion issues brought about by car-centric transport systems in cities, more and more city planners are developing more bike/scooter lanes and adopting zero-emission plans. This is the force behind the booming electric scooter market and the numbers will only go higher and higher.

Companies that have taken advantage of the growing eScooter trend develop an appthat allows them to provide efficient eScooter services. Such an app enables them to be able to locate bike pick-up and drop points through fully integrated google maps.

List of Best Electric Bikes for Rental Business or Campus Facility 2020:

It’s clear that e scooters will increasingly become more common and the e-scooter business model will continue to grab the attention of manufacturers, investors, entrepreneurs. All this should go ahead with a quest to know what are some of the best electric bikes in the market especially for anyone who would want to get started in the electric bikes/scooters rental business.

How to start an electric scooter facility/fleet in a university campus/IT park

Are you leading an organization that has a large campus, e.g., a large university? You are probably thinking of introducing an electric scooter/bicycle fleet on the campus, and why wouldn’t you?

Introducing micro-mobility in your campus with the help of such a fleet would help the people on the campus significantly. People would save money since they don’t need to use a car for a short distance. Your campus will see a drastic reduction in congestion, moreover, its carbon footprint will reduce.

Micro-mobility is relatively new though and you would need help. You would need to select an appropriate fleet of vehicles. The people on your campus would need to find electric scooters or electric bikes for commuting, and you need to provide a solution for this.

To be more specific, you need a short-term electric bike rental app. With such an app, you will be able to easily offer micro-mobility to the people on the campus. We at Devathon have built Autorent exactly for this.

What does Autorent do and how can it help you? How does it enable you to introduce micro-mobility on your campus? We explain these in this article, however, we will touch upon a few basics first.

Micro-mobility: What it is

micro-mobility

You are probably thinking about micro-mobility relatively recently, aren’t you? A few relevant insights about it could help you to better appreciate its importance.

Micro-mobility is a new trend in transportation, and it uses vehicles that are considerably smaller than cars. Electric scooters (e-scooters) and electric bikes (e-bikes) are the most popular forms of micro-mobility, however, there are also e-unicycles and e-skateboards.

You might have already seen e-scooters, which are kick scooters that come with a motor. Thanks to its motor, an e-scooter can achieve a speed of up to 20 km/h. On the other hand, e-bikes are popular in China and Japan, and they come with a motor, and you can reach a speed of 40 km/h.

You obviously can’t use these vehicles for very long commutes, however, what if you need to travel a short distance? Even if you have a reasonable public transport facility in the city, it might not cover the route you need to take. Take the example of a large university campus. Such a campus is often at a considerable distance from the central business district of the city where it’s located. While public transport facilities may serve the central business district, they wouldn’t serve this large campus. Currently, many people drive their cars even for short distances.

As you know, that brings its own set of challenges. Vehicular traffic adds significantly to pollution, moreover, finding a parking spot can be hard in crowded urban districts.

Well, you can reduce your carbon footprint if you use an electric car. However, electric cars are still new, and many countries are still building the necessary infrastructure for them. Your large campus might not have the necessary infrastructure for them either. Presently, electric cars don’t represent a viable option in most geographies.

As a result, you need to buy and maintain a car even if your commute is short. In addition to dealing with parking problems, you need to spend significantly on your car.

All of these factors have combined to make people sit up and think seriously about cars. Many people are now seriously considering whether a car is really the best option even if they have to commute only a short distance.

This is where micro-mobility enters the picture. When you commute a short distance regularly, e-scooters or e-bikes are viable options. You limit your carbon footprints and you cut costs!

Businesses have seen this shift in thinking, and e-scooter companies like Lime and Bird have entered this field in a big way. They let you rent e-scooters by the minute. On the other hand, start-ups like Jump and Lyft have entered the e-bike market.

Think of your campus now! The people there might need to travel short distances within the campus, and e-scooters can really help them.

How micro-mobility can benefit you

benefits-micromobility

What advantages can you get from micro-mobility? Let’s take a deeper look into this question.

Micro-mobility can offer several advantages to the people on your campus, e.g.:

  • Affordability: Shared e-scooters are cheaper than other mass transportation options. Remember that the people on your campus will use them on a shared basis, and they will pay for their short commutes only. Well, depending on your operating model, you might even let them use shared e-scooters or e-bikes for free!
  • Convenience: Users don’t need to worry about finding parking spots for shared e-scooters since these are small. They can easily travel from point A to point B on your campus with the help of these e-scooters.
  • Environmentally sustainable: Shared e-scooters reduce the carbon footprint, moreover, they decongest the roads. Statistics from the pilot programs in cities like Portland and Denver showimpressive gains around this key aspect.
  • Safety: This one’s obvious, isn’t it? When people on your campus use small e-scooters or e-bikes instead of cars, the problem of overspeeding will disappear. you will see fewer accidents.
