Question: How to load static assets?

[hjvedvik]

Gridsome v0.2 was just published. It allows you to have a /static folder with files which will be copied to the /dist folder. Hope that solves your issue.

Thank you! You can have a static folder in the next update. Will publish it within a few days.

@hjvedvik Awesome! Thank you very much. I'm going to close for now as this should solve my issue. Thanks!

A question about the use of the static folder: Is this just meant for specific files and not assets such as styles? I can't link to anything in the static folder using g-image or g-link, and Gridsome seems to break at the thought of accessing it for anything at compile time.

@cdvillard Think of the static folder as a place where you can put pdf documents or any other resource that you only need access to once the site is built. Any resource you want Gridsome to have access to should be in your src/assets directory

It does not works. Please example or documentation.

The static folder in the root directory of your project seems to only support only one level. Adding f.e.

• static
  • myimg1.png
  • images
    - myimg2.png

myimg1.png will be accessible at /myimg1.png
mypng2.png will not be avaible at all using /images/myimg2.png

Also the src/assets directory fails on me, not matter if I use sub folders or not. Digging the code :)
