When installing the theme via Gem method, a post-install message from html-pipeline requests more dependencies —which if any are needed for your theme to function?

Message:

Thank you for installing html-pipeline!
You must bundle Filter gem dependencies.
See html-pipeline README.md for more details.
https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline#dependencies

The information at the provided URL says "you must bundle the filter's gem dependencies. "

Which filters, if any, are required to be installed? I'm presuming these would be specific filters the theme is using?

(forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I'm not a ruby dev, and 30 minutes of web searches gave me no clues. Thanks for making all your resources available to the world. Your work is appreciated!)

I'm not a Ruby dev either. The theme gem doesn't use html-pipeline as a dependency directly.

My guess is one of the Jekyll plugins the theme uses, has it as a dependency.

If you look at your Gemfile.lock dependencies are indented and should give you a clue which gem(s) need it. Then you can follow-up with the plugin maintainer to see what filters are needed.

Thanks for the response. FWIW, it looks like it's needed by jemoji (0.9.0)? Which is maintained by GitHub apparently.

Sounds about right.

You can inquire with that project but I'm guessing you can probably ignore the post install messaging.

Thank you, I appreciate your input. This was the plan I also came to… wait it out, see what, if anything breaks.
