Plugin for Pelican that computes read time based on Medium's readtime "algorithm."

Project description

Plugin for Pelican that computes read time based on Medium’s readtime “algorithm”. It adds a readtime and readtime_minutes attributes to articles, with the time estimation for reading the article.

Usage

To use it you have to add the plugin name to the pelicanconf.py file.

PLUGINS=[ ... , 'readtime']

Then you can access the readtime variable to show read time estimation on your templates.

{% if article.readtime %} <div>{{ article.readtime }} read</div> {% endif %}

It will generate the following:

<div>X Minutes and Y Seconds read</div>

Alternatively, you can use the readtime_minutes variable to get the number of minutes instead of the fully formatted text.
