This is a first attempt, the script could be improved.

Would be good to add CI tests to make sure that this continues to work. As a general comment I think Ruby may be better suited for this than Bash, particularly if we can't use Jekyll to e.g. remove front matter. Thanks for the PR, though!

[MikeMcQuaid]

I wonder if Jekyll could be utilised to do this for us?

[MikeMcQuaid]

#!/bin/bash or #!/usr/bin/env bash would be better here. Would also be good to add a set -e so errors aren't silently ignored.

I'd even suggest:

#! /usr/bin/env bash

if [ -n "$DEBUG" ]
then
  set -x
fi
set -euo pipefail

Hi @MikeMcQuaid, I don't know Ruby, I could try in python, maybe.

[MikeMcQuaid]

@elbaulp Leaving it in Bash should be fine but I'd rather something like a Rubygem was installed or used in that case rather than manual perl substitutions. Thanks!

[MikeMcQuaid]

Passing on this as there's been no movement in almost 2 months, sorry.
