Embeds dynamic content in gitbook and static content in pdf

URL Embed Gitbook Plugin

This plugins requires gitbook >=2.0.0.

Install

Add this to your book.json, then run gitbook install:

{
    "plugins": ["url-embed"]
}

Usage

The plugin allows you to embed dynamic content in your Gitbook as an iframe, and if you generate a PDF or ePub version of the book, it will instead insert an image of the corresponding content.

The plugin expects that you will have a .png image in your /assets/ folder with a name that matches the path of the url. For instance:

{% urlembed %}
https://website.org/stuff/this-is-the-path-name
{% endurlembed %}

For the example above, you should include a file in /assets/ called 'this-is-the-path-name.png'
