We have the same problem, how can we avoid timestamp updates on files that didn't change?

The timestamp is generated by code in ~/.gitbook/versions/3.2.3/lib/output/website/onPage.js
For windows : %USERPROFILE%\.gitbook\versions\3.2.3\lib\output\website\onPage.js
...
getJSContext: function() {
return {
page: omit(context.page, 'content'),
config: context.config,
file: context.file,
gitbook: context.gitbook, // change to Object.assign(context.file,{time:''})
basePath: basePath,
book: {
language: book.getLanguage()
}
};
}
...
Object.assign(context.file,{time:''})
will make time
a fixed value which in this example is an empty string.
painty's comment gave me a hint. I could set timestamp blank.
Please modify gitbook's code as below.
~/.gitbook/versions/3.2.3/lib/json/encodeBook.js
...
return {
summary: encodeSummary(book.getSummary()),
glossary: encodeGlossary(book.getGlossary()),
readme: encodeReadme(book.getReadme()),
config: book.getConfig().getValues().toJS(),
languages: book.isMultilingual()? encodeLanguages(book.getLanguages()) : undefined,
gitbook: {
version: gitbook.version,
time: '' ### I changed this line. before -> //time: gitbook.START_TIME
},
book: extend({
language: language? language : undefined
}, variables.toJS())
};
...
warm regards
I have been exploring using GitBook to publish a book and really thrilled building with it. I know delta build could be in the cards, in the meantime how do I prevent Gitbook adding timestamp to the HTMLs? That makes all the html has changed even though there is no content changes.
TIA.
