This change is motivated by Netlify's `_redirects` files, which is currently not possible to generate with Hugo.
This commit adds a `Delimiter` field to media type, which defaults to ".", but can be blanked out.
Fixes#3614
Note that even with this setting enabled, the aliases themselves are preserved on the pages.
The big motivation for this change is to be able to use the alias definitions to generate `.htaccess` or Netlify's `_redirect` files with server-side redirects.
Fixes#3613
This commit completes the "The Revival of the Archetypes!"
If `.Site` is used in the arcetype template, the site is built and added to the template context.
Note that this may be potentially time consuming for big sites.
A more complete example would then be for the section `newsletter` and the archetype file `archetypes/newsletter.md`:
```
---
title: "{{ replace .TranslationBaseName "-" " " | title }}"
date: {{ .Date }}
tags:
- x
categories:
- x
draft: true
---
<!--more-->
{{ range first 10 ( where .Site.RegularPages "Type" "cool" ) }}
* {{ .Title }}
{{ end }}
```
And then create a new post with:
```bash
hugo new newsletter/the-latest-cool.stuff.md
```
**Hot Tip:** If you set the `newContentEditor` configuration variable to an editor on your `PATH`, the newly created article will be opened.
The above _newsletter type archetype_ illustrates the possibilities: The full Hugo `.Site` and all of Hugo's template funcs can be used in the archetype file.
Fixes#1629
This commit removes the fragile front matter decoding, and takes the provided archetype file as-is and processes it as a template.
This also means that we no longer will attempt to fill in default values for `title` and `date`.
The upside is that it is now easy to create these values in a dynamic way:
```toml
+++
title = {{ .BaseFileName | title }}
date = {{ .Date }}
draft = true
+++
```
You can currently use all of Hugo's template funcs, but the data context is currently very shallow:
* `.Type` gives the archetype kind provided
* `.Name` gives the target file name without extension.
* `.Path` gives the target file name
* `.Date` gives the current time as RFC3339 formatted string
The above will probably be extended in #1629.
Fixes#452
