The browser opens automatically and you can preview the blog on your laptop or desktop.
Even if you run the easy-jekyll-preview command many times, only one jekyll process will run so do not mind it.
Since the process of jekyll running in the laptop or desktop disappears in 300 seconds, you do not have to worry about killing jekyll process.

## Support emacspeak

If you use easy-jekyll with [emacspeak](https://github.com/tvraman/emacspeak).

(setq easy-jekyll-emacspeak t)

## Preparation for using this package

Install jekyll and bundler

gem install jekyll bundler
	jekyll new my-awesome-site
	cd my-awesome-site
	bundle install --path vendor/bundle

See https://jekyllrb.com/

### Configuration file example

_config.yml

title: PPAP-blog
	email: picotaro@example.com
	description: > # this means to ignore newlines until "baseurl:"
	baseurl: "" # the subpath of your site, e.g. /blog
	url: "" # the base hostname & protocol for your site, e.g. http://example.com
	twitter_username: jekyllrb
	github_username:  jekyll
	markdown: kramdown
	theme: minima
	plugins:
	- jekyll-feed

### Prepare the server

Let's build with a free trial of "google compute engine" or "amazon ec2".
If you want to deploy jekyll at GitHub Pages or Amazon S3 or Google Cloud Storage, This paragraph is not necessary.
I created my blog in google compute engine.
Check if rsync is installed on the server.

Write at ~/.ssh/config on your laptop or desktop.

Host blogdomain
                        HostName "Your server's IP"
                        User "Your server's ssh login username"

Because blog is generated under /home/blog/ on the server, set it to reference it with nginx.
SSL uses certbot (Let's encrypt).

sample nginx.conf

server {
		listen 80;
		server_name yourdomain;
		return  301 https://yourdomain$request_uri;
		location / {
			root /home/blog;
		index	index.html index.htm;
		}
	}
	server {
		listen 443;
		server_name yourdomain;
		ssl on;
		ssl_certificate      /etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain/fullchain.pem;
		ssl_certificate_key  /etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain/privkey.pem;

location / {
		root    /home/blog;
	index   index.html index.htm;
		}
	}
