A Metalsmith plugin to hyphenate words. It’s based on Bram Stein’s Hypher hyphenation engine

Installation

$ npm install metalsmith-hyphenate

Usage

The metalsmith-hyphenate work on the HTML files. So, insert this plugin in the pipeline where HTML files are generated; commonly after metalsmith-templates.

CLI

Install via npm and then add the metalsmith-hyphenate to your metalsmith.json.

{
  "plugins": {
    "metalsmith-hyphenate": {
      "elements": ["p", "blockquote"]
    }
  }
}

JavaScript

Pass options to the hyphenate plugin and pass it to Metalsmith with the use method:

var hyphenate = require('metalsmith-hyphenate');

metalsmith.use(hyphenate({
  "elements": ["p", "blockquote"],
  "langModule": "hyphenation.de",
  "ignore": ["archives/*"] // All the files inside 'archive' will not be hyphenated
}));

Options

  • elements - (Array) HTML elements which will be hyphenated. Default is ['p', 'li', 'ol']
  • langModule - (String) Hypher language rules to be used for hyphenation. Default is 'hyphenation.en-us'. You need to install manually — npm install <language-module> – if you are going to use any language rule other than the default.
  • ignore - (Array | String) You can use glob patterns to ignore some files.

Disable hyphenation on specific elements

Hyphenation can be disabled on an element by annotating the element or any of its ancestors with data-hyphenate="false".
