Automatically follow links and download content? about nuxt-generate-cluster

You could add a build:before or generate:before hook to download these files. Then in your component you could use a dynamic import statement, depending on further config you have, Webpack will then add all these files as static assets to your dist. See here for configuration options through magic comments.

Downloading the files in advance won't really work as there is neither a comprehensive list of files to download nor a good way to build such a list with exactly the needed files before the site is generated. But perhaps there is a way for generator to access the already built routes and retrieve a list of urls from it?

Can you add some example code that shows how and when you determine which content to download?

I have two dynamic urls, each used many times with different parameters:

data: ->
  src: "/api/content/cover/#{if @issue.feature then @issue.feature else @issue.year}/#{@issue.order_within_year}"

data: ->
  if isArticle
    url = "/api/content/pdf/#{@year}/#{@orderWithinYear}/#{@orderWithinIssue}/#{@orderWithinSection}"
  else
    url = "/api/content/pdf/#{@year}/#{@orderWithinYear}"
  url: url

In case that matters, they are being set to <img> and <a> tags, respectively.
