Jekyll::Amazon

Liquid tag for display Amazon Associate Links in Jekyll sites: {% amazon %}.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jekyll-amazon'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-amazon

And set the environment variables required by the Product Advertising API:

$ export ECS_ASSOCIATE_TAG=...
$ export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=...
$ export AWS_SECRET_KEY=...

(ECS_ASSOCIATE_TAG is the Tracking ID for your Affiliate account; AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_KEY are your security credentials from your AWS account. An AWS account is required for the use of this API.)

Finally, add the following to your site's _config.yml:

gems:
 - jekyll-amazon

Put the configuration in your _config.yml:

jekyll-amazon:
  locale: 'ja'  # label's language. default: 'en'
  country: 'jp' # with the two character country code of their Amazon
                # Affiliate account (e.g. `'us'` for United States).
                # default: 'us'
                # 'br'/'ca'/'cn'/'de'/'es'/'fr'/'in'/'it'/'jp'/'mx/'uk'/'us'
  template_dir: '_templates' # original template directory

Use the tag as follows in your jekyll pages, posts and collections:

{% amazon 4083210443 detail %}
