Hakyll.Core.Routes

Description

Once a target is compiled, the user usually wants to save it to the disk. This is where the `Routes` type comes in; it determines where a certain target should be written.

Suppose we have an item `foo/bar.markdown`. We can render this to `foo/bar.html` using:

    route "foo/bar.markdown" (setExtension ".html")

If we do not want to change the extension, we can use `idRoute`, the simplest route available:

    route "foo/bar.markdown" idRoute

That will route `foo/bar.markdown` to `foo/bar.markdown`.

Note that the extension says nothing about the content! If you set the extension to `.html`, it is your own responsibility to ensure that the content is indeed HTML.

Finally, some special cases:

- If there is no route for an item, this item will not be routed, so it will not appear in your site directory.
- If an item matches multiple routes, the first rule will be chosen.

# Documentation

type UsedMetadata = Bool Source #

When you ran a route, it's useful to know whether or not this used metadata. This allows us to do more granular dependency analysis.

data Routes Source #

Type used for a route

runRoutes :: Routes -> Provider -> Identifier -> IO (Maybe FilePath, UsedMetadata) Source #

Apply a route to an identifier

idRoute :: Routes Source #

A route that uses the identifier as filepath. For example, the target with ID `foo/bar` will be written to the file `foo/bar`.

setExtension :: String -> Routes Source #

Set (or replace) the extension of a route.

Example:

    runRoutes (setExtension "html") "foo/bar"

Result:

    Just "foo/bar.html"

Example:

    runRoutes (setExtension "html") "posts/the-art-of-trolling.markdown"

Result:

    Just "posts/the-art-of-trolling.html"

matchRoute :: Pattern -> Routes -> Routes Source #

Apply the route if the identifier matches the given pattern, fail otherwise

customRoute :: (Identifier -> FilePath) -> Routes Source #

Create a custom route. This should almost always be used with `matchRoute`

constRoute :: FilePath -> Routes Source #

A route that always gives the same result. Obviously, you should only use this for a single compilation rule.

gsubRoute Source #

Arguments

:: String | Pattern
-> (String -> String) | Replacement
-> Routes | Resulting route

Create a gsub route

Example:

    runRoutes (gsubRoute "rss/" (const "")) "tags/rss/bar.xml"

Result:

    Just "tags/bar.xml"

metadataRoute :: (Metadata -> Routes) -> Routes Source #

Get access to the metadata in order to determine the route

composeRoutes Source #

Arguments

:: Routes | First route to apply
-> Routes | Second route to apply
-> Routes | Resulting route

Compose routes so that `f `composeRoutes` g` is more or less equivalent with `g . f`.

Example:

    let routes = gsubRoute "rss/" (const "") `composeRoutes` setExtension "xml"
    in runRoutes routes "tags/rss/bar"

Result:

    Just "tags/bar.xml"

If the first route given fails, Hakyll will not apply the second route.
