Hey all,
I’ve been working with Hugo for a few weeks and it’s been very interesting. Of the static site generators I’ve tried, I definitely like it the most. I haven’t quite figured out when to use title-case notation with dots, but I’ll get there.
Anyway, I’m unable to get where to behave the way I think it’s supposed to, based on the docs. I have a directory at /data/en/team/ that contains a few files, john-smith.yml and jane-doe.yml. Each is formatted roughly like this:
---
portrait: "/images/client/client-2.jpg"
title: John Smith
hidden: false
role: brain-dead slob
blurb: HOW DO YOU TURN THIS ON
about: Cillum do aute do minim deserunt cupidatat enim dolor mollit amet tempor ipsum qui nulla. Magna proident tempor consectetur ipsum dolor ...
social_media: []
Then, in a debugging partial, I have
{{ $team_members := index site.Data site.Language.Lang "team" }}
{{ warnf "found %d team members:" (len $team_members) }}
{{ range $team_members }}
{{ warnf "\t- %s (hidden: %t)" .title .hidden }}
{{ range $key, $val := . }}
{{ warnf "\t\t%T|%v => %T|%v" $key $key $val $val }}
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
{{ warnf "hidden members:" }}
{{ range where $team_members ".hidden" true }}
{{ warnf "\t- %s" .title }}
{{ end }}
{{ warnf "DONE" }}
Then, when launching the server, I get this in the log:
WARN 2020/08/09 22:20:56 found 2 team members:

Effectively I can’t seem to filter down a set – I either have it all or I have none. And I can’t find the problem in my usage compared to the docks. I’ve tried variants of the invocation, including
where $team_members ".hidden" truewhere $team_members ".Hidden" truewhere $team_members ".hidden" "true"where $team_members ".Hidden" "true"
(as I mentioned I don’t entirely get when you’re supposed to use upper vs lower-case attribute access, and sometimes Hugo wants them as strings too, idk)
Hopefully my example is adequately complete so as to be obvious to someone more seasoned than I.
Many thanks!
