@include dynamic template from $page method in layout about jigsaw

[dkemens]

Update

@include($page->getRelativePath() . "/_links") works just fine. The GenerateSitemap listener was failing and my docker image wasn't dropping the errors for some reason. Thank you for your time on this - doesn't seem to be an issue with Jigsaw at all - rather something between my configuration and the Sitemap system. For now, I've just disabled the generator. When I get back to it, I'll update this thread with whatever issue I find.

Thanks again!

What exactly do $page->headerLinks() and $page->getRelativePath() . '/_links' output? If @include('docs/platform/_links') works the only thing I can think of here is that the dynamic path generation isn't actually generating that exact path.

[dkemens]

If I echo the output of either $page->headerLinks() or $page->getRelativePath() . '/_links' - in both scenarios, the output is docs/platform/_links - I can copy the echoed output and replace the @include value with that echoed output and it works as expected - but putting any variable in the @include doesn't do anything. In fact, I'd have to confirm this, but I think it prevents the page from building at all.

Can you try assigning the value to a variable and passing it in? Could be something weird happening with parentheses inside the @include().

E.g.:

@php
    $path = $page->getRelativePath() . '/_links';
@endphp
@include($path)

[dkemens]

Yep. Tried that. Same exact result. In fact, even if I just do

@php
$headerLinks = 'docs/platform/_links';
@endphp
@include($headerLinks)

It still fails - doesn't even build the page. I get the ✔ Mix: Compiled successfully but the page didn't compile (I know this by adding extra text, like asdf on a different line and it not showing up).

Oh interesting, okay. This could be a limitation of Blade then, it looks like @include() needs a string literal and can't handle any kind of expression. Or it could be something weird we're doing. Do either of these work?

@include({{ $page->getRelativePath() . '/_links' }})

@include('{{ $page->getRelativePath() . '/_links' }}')

[dkemens]

They do not (tried swapping various quote patterns on the second option, as well). I even just tried passing 'links' back from my markdown - the variable makes it back but it seems to just refuse to include any means of it.

@include($page->links)
@include({{$page->links}})
@include('{{$page->links}}')

This page gives me hope that it's possible in newer versions - https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/blade-include-variable-in-include-function - but I'm not sure of the disconnect between Jigsaw's implementation and Laravel's. I'll keep fighting with it, maybe go the full debug route (was avoiding that in general for the sake of "simplicity"), see if I can find the culprit.
