Eleventy: How can I serve collection from root? (blog)

[ckissi]

I'm moving my WP blog over to eleventy.

I have a posts collection in /site/blog/post1/index.md and this is rendered as /dist/blog/post1/index.html.

I would like yo serve it from the root of my site so it should become /dist/post1/index.htm.

So like http://example.com/blog/post1.html should be http://example.com/post1.html actually.

How can I do that?

If you want to have your /site/blog/post1/index.md files served as /post1.html, you should be able to create a directory config file named /site/blog/blog.json and set a permalink property (which should get applied to all the /site/blog/*/ files):

{
  "permalink": "/{{ page.fileSlug }}.html"
}
