Gatsby: Path rewrite

[theduke]

For some pages, I want to to change the URL path in the router to not map directly to the path on the filesystem.

For example: a blog post in a file "blog/2015-01-01-post-title" should have a path "blog/post-title".

Where can I hook into the route building process to change that?

Ok, seems like Gatsby automatically rewrites the path if the page has a metadata field "path".

This should really be documented somewhere!

You can also programatically rewrite paths by exporting a rewritePath in gatsby-node.js. Also not documented yet :-

https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/blob/364a5496ce172e117cc9fc7b10bb1e338693c2ec/lib/utils/build-page/url-resolver.js#L11

See my blog for an example https://github.com/KyleAMathews/blog/blob/master/gatsby-node.js

Would be really cool if some documentation would be added for rewritePath at some point!

Btw, your blog no longer seems to be using rewritePath. Maybe remove the link...
