In quarto render, "--output -" is incompatible with "--embed-resources" #7984

Open ning-y opened 11 months ago

Bug description

In quarto render, simultaneous use of the options --output - and --embed-resources fails with an error (file not found). This error occurs after the HTML file is generated and printed to stdout.

Steps to reproduce

$ touch example.qmd

$ quarto render example.qmd --output -
# ... runs without errors, printing HTML to stdout

$ quarto render example.qmd --output - --embed-resources
# ... the HTML is printed to stdout without issue, but then an error appears:
ERROR: NotFound: No such file or directory (os error 2)

Thanks for the report! This is a known bug.

Our handling of alternate filenames and directories is not ideal, because a number of different tools have implicit assumptions about the filenames and paths.

As a workaround, you can output to a temporary name and redirect from a wrapper script. Would that not work for your use case?

@cscheid I have a workaround, no worries! This is more of an "FYI" type of bug report :)
