Eleventy-Plugin Backlinks

Collect and display backlinks from your notes.

Note: I'm not building this project for myself, so y'all gotta tell me what you think. Issues are the way to go here.

Usage

Add the plugin to your eleventy config, like so:

const eleventyBacklinks = require("eleventy-plugin-backlinks");

module.exports = function (eleventyConfig) {
	eleventyConfig.addPlugin(eleventyBacklinks, {
		folder: "/notes", // The folder with your notes
	});
};

For every page in the given folder, you get a backlinks variable. By default, it contains an array, with the title (if set) and the url of each page.

Options

• folder (string) - The name of a folder which contains your notes. The default folder-name is "notes".
• getData (function) - Optionally, control which data will be passed to backlinks. The function receives a collection item, and is called for every relevant page.
