# Pelican source link plugin
This plugin for [Pelican](https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/) generate two attributes for articles:
- `source_link`: link to the source of the article from your forge
- `path_source_link`: link to the path of the article from your forge
## Installation
Then, add the plugin to your pelicanconf.py file:
```python
PLUGINS = [
# other plugins...
"source_link",
]
```
## Usage
To use the plugin, define a constant named `GIT_SOURCE` in your pelicanconf.py file:
```python
GIT_SOURCE_BASE_URLL = "https://github.com/your-username/your-repo"
```
This constant should contain the base URL of your Git repository where your source code is stored.
Once the constant is defined, the plugin will generate a `source_link` and a `path_source_link` attributes for each article in your Pelican project.
Those links are generated based on the article's source path relative to the root directory of your Pelican project. If the constant PATH is defined in pelicanconf.py, the plugin will use this value as the root directory. Otherwise, it will use the default value of "", which assumes that your Pelican project is located in the same directory as your pelicanconf.py file.
