Jekyll::Twitch

This gem allows you to embed twitch channels, clips, collections, and videos in your Jekyll websites. It adds and registers a new twitch liquid tag that accepts a twitch clip, channel, broadcast, or highlight url. It's based on the Twitch video embeds.

{% twitch https://www.twitch.tv/chaelcodes/clip/SpoopySlipperyGrasshopperPogChamp %}

See the DEMO site

Check out the demo site for install instructions and to review different embed examples.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jekyll-twitch'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jekyll-twitch

Then add Jekyll-Twitch to your _config.yml like so:

plugins:
  - jekyll-twitch

Usage

This is a Jekyll liquid tag, so just put {% twitch https://www.twitch.tv/chaelcodes/clip/SpoopySlipperyGrasshopperPogChamp %} to embed your clip, channel, or broadcast.

When building your site, Jekyll no longer substitutes site.url for localhost, which means Twitch embeds will not render. You need to supply host and localhost to view clips in development. jekyll serve --host localhost --port 4000

All of the below examples are on the demo site with actual embeds. I strongly recommend using that.

Channel

This channel embed will show the broadcast while the streamer is live, and the channel offline art when they are not.

<div style="width:720px;height:480px">
  {% twitch https://twitch.tv/ChaelCodes %}
</div>

Collection

This embed is used to add a collection of videos to your page or post.

<div style="width:720px;height:480px">
  {% twitch https://www.twitch.tv/collections/x5bG2TGTeBYIRg %}
</div>

Clips

This embed is used to add one Twitch clip to your page or post.

<div style="width:720px;height:480px">
  {% twitch https://www.twitch.tv/chaelcodes/clip/DeterminedSweetRedpandaDoritosChip-pQiRlDz6rQ9uvuuq %}
</div>

Videos

Whether you call them videos, vods, or higlights, this will embed them in your page or psot.

<div style="width:720px;height:480px">
  {% twitch https://www.twitch.tv/videos/716698136 %}
</div>
