jinja2.exceptions.TemplateNotFound: sections\education.tex (On Windows?) about cv

[bamos]

Hi @rlabrecque - thanks for the report.

The code is written to be cross-platform, but I've
never tested in Windows before.
I think this is a subtle bug with the jinja templates.
I'll debug on a Windows machine today or tomorrow.

Afterwards, I'd like to set up Linux and Windows CI so
this won't be problem in the future.
I've filed #12 for this.

Hi @rlabrecque - can you pull the latest code and try again?
I think I've fixed the problem, caused by how Jinja's FileSystemLoader handles paths in Windows.

[rlabrecque]

Yep, It's all good now! Thanks!

Huh, I don't quite understand what the problem was, and I'm curious. Did he have a folder/file with a forward slash in the path?

@emichael - in windows, generate.py will create a string like
sections\education.tex (with backslashes from os.path.sep)
to retrieve and render a template with self._jinja_env.get_template.
I don't understand why, but Jinja's get_template method expects
the path to be separated with forward slashes, even in Windows.

This seems to be a problem in other projects too:

Ugh. And I thought religious use of os.path.join would prevent such nonsense...
