galliani / jekyll-airtable Goto Github PK

It's been a while since I had a chance to work with this plugin and I must thank you again for putting it together.

One thing I'd like to do is to relate items in collections with other collections.

For example: "product x" in the "products" collection could link to "manufacturer x" in the "manufacturers" collection, and the latter "manufacturer x" page could list all products associated with it.

Right now the UIDs can probably make this possible but I'd like to auto-generate file names for the finished site from the titles of each entry. I did try creating a slug column in Airtable but it doesn't appear to create what I expected. Your thoughts would be welcomed!

Is it possible to access attachments within a collection loop? I am trying to do something like this, but am having no luck. Thanks!

<ul>
    {% for author in site.authors %}

        <h5>{{ author.name }}</h5>
        {% assign photo = site.data.airtable.attachments[author.image] %}
        <img src="{{ photo.url }}" />

    {% endfor %}
</ul>

When I construct a file name in a template using the slugify filter, phrases become hypenated-like-so, but the plugin creates filenames with underscores instead. Could this be a setting?

love this plugin. Everything worked fine. But now, when the plugin syncs with airtable I get the following error:

jekyll 3.8.0 | Error: undefined method length' for nil:NilClass`

The the sync stops. And it seems to happened while the attachments get updated. Because all the new attachment won't sync. The listing are syncing fine.

I dont know if I have some buggy content in my airtable or if it is a bug. Or is there a limit on how many attachments are allowed?

###UPDATE####
the problem was: there was a blank record in the airtable. After I deleted it everything synced fine again!
