## Installation
If you're running Jekyll v3.3+ and self-hosting you can quickly install the
theme as Ruby gem. If you're hosting with GitHub Pages you'll have to use the
"repo fork" method or directly copy all of the theme files (see
[structure](#structure) below) into your project.
### Ruby Gem Method
1. Install the theme as a Ruby Gem by adding it to your `Gemfile` like so:
```ruby
@ -72,9 +85,91 @@ with a few enhancements thrown in for good measure:
theme: jekyll-theme-basically-basic
```
**Note:** 3rd-party Ruby gem themes aren't currently supported on sites hosted
with [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/). Basically Basic can still be
used on GH Pages, but you will need to fork the theme instead.
### GitHub Pages Compatible Method
Fork the [Basically Basic repo](https://github.com/mmistakes/jekyll-theme-basically-basic/fork),
then rename it to **USERNAME.github.io** --- replacing **USERNAME** with your
GitHub username.
**Note:** Your Jekyll site should be viewable immediately at
<http://USERNAME.github.io>. If it's not, you can force a rebuild by
**configuring your site** (see below for more details).
Replace the contents of `Gemfile` found in the root of your Jekyll site with
the following:
```ruby
source "https://rubygems.org"
gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins
```
Then run `bundle update` and verify that the [GitHub Pages gem](https://github.com/github/pages-gem)
and its dependencies install properly.
#### Remove the Unnecessary
If you forked or downloaded the `jekyll-theme-basically-basic` repo you can
safely remove the following files and folders:
- `.codeclimate.yml`
- `.editorconfig`
- `.gitattributes`
- `.github`
- `.scss-lint.yml`
- `CHANGELOG.md`
- `jekyll-theme-basically-basic.gemspec`
- `LICENSE.md`
- `Rakefile`
- `README.md`
- `screenshot.png`
- `/docs`
- `/example`
## Structure
Layouts, includes, Sass partials, and data files are all placed in their default
locations. Stylesheets and scripts in `assets`, and a few development related
files in the project's root directory.
**Please note:** If you installed Basically Basic via the Ruby Gem method, theme
files found in `/_layouts`, `/_includes`, `/_sass`, and `/assets` will be
missing. This is normal as they are bundled with the [`jekyll-theme-basically-basic`](https://rubygems.org/gems/jekyll-theme-basically-basic) gem.
```bash
jekyll-theme-basically-basic
├── _data # data files
| └── theme.yml # theme settings and custom text
├── _includes # theme includes and SVG icons
├── _layouts # theme layouts (see below for details)
├── _sass # Sass partials
├── assets
| ├── javascripts
| | └── main.js
| ├── stylesheets
| | └── main.scss
├── _config.yml # sample configuration
└── index.md # sample home page (all posts/not paginated)
```
### Starting Fresh
After creating a `Gemfile` and installing the theme you'll need to add and edit
the following files:
- [`_config.yml`](_config.yml)
- [`/_data/theme.yml`](_data/theme.yml)
- [`index.md`](index.md)
**Note:** Consult the [**pagination**](#pagination) documentation below for
instructions on how to enable it for the home page.
### Starting from `jekyll new`
Using the `jekyll new` command will get you up and running the quickest.
Edit `_config.yml` and create `_data/theme.yml` as instructed above and you're
good to go.
