May have lost me a little. Could you give me a concrete example?
For example, output html looks like this:
<ul>
<li><a href="screener">Screener</a>
</li>
<li><a href="company-profile">Company Profile</a>
</li>
<li><a href="financials">Financials</a>
</li>
</ul>
But would be great if relative urls compiled to this:
<ul>
<li><a href="screener.html">Screener</a>
</li>
<li><a href="company-profile.html">Company Profile</a>
</li>
<li><a href="financials.html">Financials</a>
</li>
</ul>
Does this makes sense, or if this is OOTB functionality and I'm overlooking something?
You mentioned server-template-compile, but is it a client-jade-static issue too?
I'll need to whip something together to see what the deal is. I'm surprised it would lop off the extension?
I'll check if it happens on Jade templates to, but it definitely is happening on html templates.
It's not cutting off the extension, but I'm just saying it would be nice to have a flag to apply the extension, for example, if I want to dev in an app of jade templates, but be able to export this as a static html deliverable that links within itself for less-techy clients.
Does that make sense? I'll try and get around to testing this out in Jade tonight.
Sorry, the reason I asked was because you logged the issue in client-jade-static, but mention server-template-compile
Yeah, I put it in here because I figured it was functionality that people who use this module would want, but it happens across the board with this and server-template-compile from testing with a new install.
Here's a repo simulating the issue. https://github.com/boltforge/test-repo
Checking out the repo or doing Install steps 5, 2, 7, 1, 1, and creating a link in the index pointing to the route rather than the compiled .html will show you what I mean.
In that test repo this is your mimosa-config...
exports.config = {
"modules": [
"copy",
"server",
"jshint",
"csslint",
"require",
"minify-js",
"minify-css",
"live-reload",
"bower",
"stylus",
"html-templates",
"server-template-compile",
"web-package",
"combine",
"stream-copy",
"import-source"
],
"clientJadeStatic": {
"context": {},
"outputExtension": '.html',
"prettyOutput": true
},
...
};
You have server-template-compile
in your modules
, but you have configured clientJadeStatic
. The latter isn't in your modules
.
Yeah, you are right sir. Added it but still no success. So should this be closed and moved to https://github.com/dbashford/mimosa-server-template-compile?
I'm having trouble understanding which behavior I should be diagnosing.
You are using clientJadeStatic
config in there. So should I change the module to client jade static and play with that?
Is the client side compilation of jade that needs this or the server side? On the server you have absolute control over that. I'm pretty sure you can have your server routes respond to index.html
and render jade views, and then have links that that point to .html
.
Quick idea or question I had: How hard would it be to add a flag that would dynamically add file name extensions to hrefs in templates when server-template-compile? I really like using Jade to build my templates, but most of my clients need me to export this as packages of static files to show progress and it can't go up on a private server either.
Would there be a way to add a property in the configuration for adding the .html file extension dynamically to hrefs in output templates?
Thanks!
