Rendering with full paths

[dfalbel]

Since I'm deploying gh-pages in a repo (not org.github.io repo), I'm not able to use relative paths. So I'm using hugo -s . to build the site.

By doing this, all assets like javascripts and css are linked with full path: src="https://curso-r.github.io/verao2017/javascripts/application.js" for example.

This doesn't happen with images in Rmd files, they have a strange link: src="#####../content/hello-world/index_files/figure-html/pie-1.png"

How can I make blogdown render the html with baseurl param before the path to image instead of #####../content?

This is my repo: https://github.com/curso-r/verao2017

And I'm using wercker to deploy the public folder to github pages.

Thanks in advance!

I fixed by just using: knitr::opts_chunk$set(collapse = TRUE, fig.path = "") in the .Rmd file

Sorry!

Setting fig.path='' is probably not the ideal solution. I have not really started working on resolving paths other than paths for figures and HTML widgets yet, but the recommended way to build your website is not hugo -s in blogdown. I'm still working on the documentation, and typically you use blogdown::serve_site() to live preview your site, and you can just publish the site in the public folder. I'd recommend setting relativeurls to true in config.yaml or config.toml, so that your site will be portable (relative URLs everywhere so you can move your site wherever you want). Hugo seems to favor absolute paths, but I don't think it is a good idea.

FYI, I have renamed render_pages() to build_site() and exported it. You should not need to set fig.path.

Thanks! This will work great!

I think it's not exported yet :)

Indeed. Sorry about that. Just exported it.
