paths relative to HTML file

[aleemb]

Is there a way to have the generated asset paths be relative to the HTML file? I found a similar question but no good solution. I don't want to specify the absolute paths.

I just put together a brutish hack to see if this is feasible. Would be nice if usemin supported this in a more thorough way.

   }

   if (assetSearchPath && assetSearchPath.length !== 0) {
+    assetSearchPath.forEach(function(searchPath, idx){
+      if (searchPath.indexOf('./') == 0) {
+        assetSearchPath[idx] = path.dirname(filename) + '/' + searchPath.replace(/^.\//, '');
+      }
+    });
+
     this.file.searchPath = assetSearchPath;
   }

Basically, if the assetsDirs is specified as ./foo and the current working file is /a/b/index.html then it looks for assets in /a/b/foo/ folder. It only works if the assetsDirs search path begins with ./ which works for my purposes, for now.

Hope someone with better insight can do a more through job of this.

There exists a fix for this, but it is not merged: buddhike@daefa9e
