fix: add folder pages for empty, intermediate folders

[tha00]

This PR adds folder pages for intermediate folders such as in

content/foo/bar/my-note.md

Before, only a folder page for bar was created, resulting in a 404 when clicking the foo link in Home > foo > bar, see issue #1084.

With the change, there exists also a (albeit empty) page for foo. A potential follow-up would be to show not only notes, but also subfolders on folder pages.

Do you know what the default behaviour of Obsidian Vault is for this case?

[aarnphm]

you can rewrite L78-82:

        allFiles.flatMap((data) =>
          data.slug
            ? getFolders(data.slug).filter(
                (folderName) => folderName !== "." && folderName !== "tags",
              )
            : [],
        ),

[tha00]

Thanks! I adapted my change.

Sorry, could you please explain in more detail? I've observed the 404s when using quartz with Obsidian.

If you mean Obsidian Publish, then I don't know, I haven't used it.

[aarnphm]

Yes, sorry I meant Obsidian Publish.

I think we should do

1. Generate intermediate folder pages (like you do here)
2. Also account for these pages in the folder listing itself so the folder listing pages contain sublists

[tha00]

I added a list of (direct) subfolders to the folder page. Do you think this is going in the right direction?

What's still missing is:

• formatting/style
• internationalization of the "x subfolders" text

no need to have the subfolder, just include as item like before

I added the folders as regular items to the page list. Not sure, if they should have a date (e.g. latest date of their contents) or not?

[aarnphm]

hmm, you can use the date from filesystem?

edit: my guess is dates with latest file content is fine.

[tha00]

Added the latest dates of all files underneath the subfolder to the subfolder itself (reusing byDateAndAlphbetical).

[tha00]

With the latest dates from their contents, the folder pages look like this now:

Anything I could do to improve the PR?
