This page is part of the
jekyll_plugins collection.
Jekyll_basename_dirname is a Jekyll plugin that provides four filters, which return portions of a string:
basename– Filters a string containing a path, returning the filename and extension.dirname– Filters a string containing a path, returning the portion before the filename and extension.basename_without_extension– Filters a string containing a path, returning the filename without the extension.-
wbr– Adds a <wbr> element after every "/" character in a string; this causes strings containing long paths to wrap in an HTML page.
