Base Route + Output Folder Issues

[susmitpy]

Describe the bug

I want to create a github repo consisting of presentations of my talks. I intend to use GitHub pages feature for it. Say I have a pres1.md file . I want it to be built in /docs/pres1 route so that I can setup GitHub pages from docs folder.

Minimal reproduction

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run npm exec slidev build pres1.md --base /pres1/ --out docs

Issues:

1. docs folder is not created
2. If tried without out option, After the build, the cli asks a weird prompt: Entry file "/pres1" does not exist, do you want to create it?
   • Saying no, completes the process, but upon visiting route /pres1 , for all files 404 error is thrown (as it is accessing "/" directly

Environment

• Slidev version: 0.49.23 and 0.49.22
• OS: MacOS

[KermanX]

Try npm exec slidev build pres1.md -- --base /pres1/ --out docs?

[susmitpy]

@KermanX Your command generated the docs folder , but there was no pres1 folder in it. As a result, the slideshow was not present at / neither at /pres1

However, npm exec slidev build pres1.md -- --base /pres1/ --out docs/pres1 did the trick Thanks

The double -- is missing from the documentation.
