Installation

Because the importers have many of their own dependencies, they are made available to Jekyll via a separate gem named jekyll-import. To use them, all you need to do is install the gem, and they will become available as part of Jekyll’s standard command line interface.

gem install jekyll-import

Jekyll Import requires you to manually install some dependencies.

Most importers require one or more dependencies. In order to keep the plugin’s footprint small, we don’t bundle the gem with every plausible dependency. Instead, you will see a nice error message describing any missing dependency and how to install it. We also document such dependencies in the dedicated page for a given importer.
