⚓ Anchors ⚓
This gem will add anchors to all of your websites h1-h6 headers. Its useful for static website generators, like Middleman. It turns this:
<body>
<h1>How are you?</h1>
<h2>I am fine<img src='hi.gif'/></h2>
<h3>How are you?</h3>
</body>
into this:
<body>
<h1 id="how_are_you"><a href="#how_are_you">How are you?</a></h1>
<h2 id="i_am_fine"><a href="#i_am_fine">I am fine<img src="hi.gif"></a></h2>
<h3 id="how_are_you_2"><a href="#how_are_you_2">How are you?</a></h3>
</body>
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'anchors'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install anchors
Usage
Just use the middleware from your rack config.ru file or Middleman config.rb file as follows:
require "anchors"
use Anchors::Middleware
and the body
will automatically have anchors applied to all of the h1-h6 tags.
You can even customize it a bit:
require "anchors"
use Anchors::Middleware,
css: "section.anchorize", # CSS headers are applied to. Defaults to 'body'
seperator: "-", # Change the seperator in the header. Defaults to '_'
link: false # Don't convert the headers into links to their own anchors. Defaults to 'true'.
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
