Thibault,

The variable substitution should work as you've described. For comparison, I have a variety of variables replaced on http://androidtransfuse.org. Namely the "site.currentVersion" variable:

Declared: https://github.com/johncarl81/transfuse-site/blob/master/_config.yml#L5

Used: https://github.com/johncarl81/transfuse-site/blame/master/index.adoc#L80

I also use the page.title variable in the layout: https://github.com/johncarl81/transfuse-site/blob/master/_layouts/default.html#L6

which is defined in the front matter of each page: https://github.com/johncarl81/transfuse-site/blame/master/index.adoc#L3

Reviewing your setup, you may need to define the variable baseurl in your _config.yml file.

Hope that works for you.

John

Hi there,

Does anyone know if it's still possible to use Jekyll variables in a file processed by Asciidoctor?

For example, I have a test.adoc file, in which I'd like to display my site base URL:
---
layout: post
title: Any title
---
=== Some title
And the base URL should be {{ site.baseurl }}
Unfortunately, the {{ site.baseurl }} variable seems to be totally removed from the rendered file.

I'm using:
* Jekyll 1.5.2
* the jekyll-asciidoc plugin
* here follows a piece of my _config.yml file:
asciidoctor:
  attributes:
    - icons=font
    - source-highlighter=coderay
Thanks!

Regards,
Thibault.
