Tag Cloud: A Plugin for Pelican



This Pelican plugin generates a tag cloud from post tags.
Installation
This plugin can be installed via:
python -m pip install pelican-tag-cloud

For more detailed plugin installation instructions, please refer to the Pelican Plugin Documentation.
In order to use to use this plugin, you must edit your theme’s base template and style-sheet. You should change base.html to apply formats (and sizes) defined in style.css, as specified in Settings below.
Settings



Settings and their default values
What does it do?




TAG_CLOUD_STEPS = 4
Count of different font sizes in the tag cloud


TAG_CLOUD_MAX_ITEMS = 100
Maximum number of tags in the cloud


TAG_CLOUD_SORTING = "random"
Tag cloud ordering scheme. Valid values: random, alphabetically, alphabetically-rev, size, and size-rev


TAG_CLOUD_BADGE = True
Optional setting: turn on badges, displaying the number of articles using each tag



Usage
The default theme does not include a tag cloud, but it is fairly easy to add one:
<ul class="tagcloud">
{% for tag in tag_cloud %}
<li class="tag-{{ tag.1 }}">
<a href="{{ SITEURL }}/{{ tag.0.url }}">
{{ tag.0 }}
{% if TAG_CLOUD_BADGE %}
<span class="badge">{{ tag.2 }}</span>
{% endif %}
</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

You should then also define CSS styles with appropriate classes (tag-1 to tag-N, where N matches TAG_CLOUD_STEPS), tag-1 being the most frequent, and define a ul.tagcloud class with appropriate list-style to create the cloud. You should copy+paste this badge CSS rule ul.tagcloud .list-group-item <span>.badge if you are using the TAG_CLOUD_BADGE setting. (This rule, potentially long, is suggested to avoid conflicts with CSS frameworks such as Twitter Bootstrap.)
For example:
ul.tagcloud {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}

ul.tagcloud li {
display: inline-block;
}

li.tag-1 {
font-size: 150%;
}

li.tag-2 {
font-size: 120%;
}

/* ... add li.tag-3 etc, as much as needed */

ul.tagcloud .list-group-item span.badge {
background-color: grey;
color: white;
}

By default, the tags in the cloud are sorted randomly, but if you prefer to have them sorted alphabetically, use alphabetically (ascending) and alphabetically-rev (descending). Also, it is possible to sort the tags by frequency (number of articles with this specific tag) using the values size (ascending) and size-rev (descending).
