Eleventy: Access Static Files Inside Static Folder

Created on 27 Apr 2020  路  2Comments  路  Source: 11ty/eleventy

With Hugo, all static files put together inside "static" folder. I tried to use "static" folder with 11ty, but each files inside must be accessed through ./static/file-name. How to access each static files through /file-name without any ./static/ path?

In Eleventy, you have more flexibility with the directory structure. It will look in the input directory, which by default is the project's top level. For example, if you set /src as the input directory, you then can put the static files anywhere within there and refer to them as /path/to/filename.ext (i.e., rather than /src/path/to/filename.ext). For more details, see https://www.11ty.dev/docs/config/ (and, more specifically, https://www.11ty.dev/docs/config/#input-directory).

It works. Thanks.
