Type mismatch in src/nimib/docs.nim

[dlesnoff]

Hello, I get a type mismatch issue in src/nimib/docs.nim with Nim 2.0. I get the following error:

~/Documents/dev/nimib/src/nimib/docs.nim(13, 33) Error: type mismatch
Expression: render(doc)
  [1] doc: NbDoc

Expected one of (first mismatch at [position]):
[1] method render(token: EscapedTag; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: Parent; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: Partial; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: Section; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: Text; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: Token; ctx: Context): string
[1] method render(token: UnescapedTag; ctx: Context): string
[1] proc render(nb: var NbDoc): string
[1] proc render(nb: var NbDoc; blk: var NbBlock): string
[1] proc render(s: string; ctx: Context = newContext()): string
[1] proc render(tokens: seq[Token]; ctx: Context): string

The line in question is in the function:

proc write*(doc: var NbDoc) =
  echo "[nimib] current directory: ", getCurrentDir()
  let dir = doc.filename.splitFile().dir
  if not dir.dirExists:
    echo "[nimib] creating directory: ", dir
    createDir(dir)
  echo "[nimib] saving file: ", doc.filename
  writeFile(doc.filename, render(doc))

I am surprised it didn't match with this entry: [1] proc render(nb: var NbDoc): string. doc is mutable since it is a var argument. EDIT: doc is not mutable -> doc is mutable.

this is indeed weird. does it still reproduce? I am not able at the moment to reproduce locally (have not updated to 2.0 yet...) and CI normally checks 2.0 (this was reported after last CI run but there was not a release in the time this was reported). Incidentally we should add the possibility to rerun the test CI manually, will add an issue about that

The error disappears with Nim 2.0.2. Next time, I'll be more specific in the compilation process, because I could not reproduce the exact error message.
