Relative path for HTML output #388

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I maintain wikis in different directories and open them by explicitly passing 
their index files to vim. So say .../some/path/index.wiki. When I generate HTML 
via :Vimwiki2HTML, it's output in a directory .../some/path_html. I'd like this 
directory to be .../some/path/html. There does not appear to be an easy way to 
configure this; is there? It would also be nice to keep templates at a relative 
path, maybe .../some/path/html/templates.

You can register wiki's as described under ":h vimwiki-register-wiki" in order 
to specify the 'path', 'path_html', and 'template_path' variables.

  let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '/some/path/',
          \ 'path_html': '/some/path/html/',
          \ 'template_path': '/some/path/html/'}]

You will probably pick-up a thing or two by revisiting the docs from time to 
time.

I read that in the docs before posting the issue. The request is quite 
specific: relative paths. I don't think they are supported right now. I don't 
want to specify an explicit initial 'path'. Why can't I say where I want html 
output relative to where the wiki file is?

Good point.  Wiki-registration is an aspect of vimwiki that is a bit awkward. 

I have done some preliminary work that allows one to register a wiki by placing 
a vimwiki.vimrc file in the root of the wiki itself.  In theory, it should 
allow paths to be specified relative to this location.  I'll look into adding 
this feature.

Thx.
