Email protection liquid filter for Jekyll
Jekyll Email Protect is an email protection liquid filter which can be used to obfuscate mailto: links to protect an email address from spam bots.
This plugin is available as a RubyGem.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'jekyll-email-protect'
And then execute the bundle command to install the gem.
Alternatively, you can also manually install the gem using the following command:
$ gem install jekyll-email-protect
After the plugin has been installed successfully, add the following lines to your _config.yml in order to tell Jekyll to use the plugin:
gems:
- jekyll-email-protect
In your markup, simply use the encode_email liquid filter made available through this plugin:
{{ 'example@example.com' | encode_email }}
The above code will yield %65%78%61%6D%70%6C%65@%65%78%61%6D%70%6C%65.%63%6F%6D. Only use this filter within the href attribute of a given link.
The following example shows how this plugin can be used to protect the site's email address:
<a href="mailto:{{ site.email | encode_email }}" title="Contact me">Contact me</a>
