Including external markdown content with Assemble.io - assemble

working to get external content included with other .hbs files and unable to get it to work.
I have installed handlebars-helper-md and loading.
Based on the docs here - I have tried:
---
content: ../path/to/content.md
---
{{md content }}
and
{{md '.. /path /to /content.md '}}
I have tried every possible file path I could think of to get the file to render, and have gotten nothing to display.
Is the file path relative to the current directory I'm in? Is this target/task oriented in grunt? Any other directions or things I may have missed?

Ok - a little more trial and error, as well as reviewing the Github readme helped me figure this out.
I included the files in the options object:
assemble: {
options: {
partials: 'my/partials/directory/*.md'
}
}
And was then easily able to do this:
{{md 'myfile'}}
Working great now.

How can I manually edit the list of recently opened files in VS Code?

I rely heavily on the File: Open Recent… command to open frequently used files, but yesterday my local Google Drive folder got moved to a new location and now I can no longer access any of the files in that folder through the Open Recent panel because the paths don't match.
The fix would be as simple as replacing "/Google Drive/" with "/Google Drive/My Drive/" but I have no idea what file contains the list of files that appears in the recently opened panel.
I'm assuming it's somewhere in ~/Library/Application Support/Code but not sure where.
I was wondering the same thing the other day and found this while searching for a solution, so I took some time to investigate it today.
It's been a a few weeks since you posted, so hopefully this will still be of help to you.
Also, I'm using Windows and I'm not familiar with macOS, but I think it should be easy enough adjust the solution.
Location of settings
Those setting are stored in the following file: %APPDATA%\Code\User\globalStorage\state.vscdb.
The file is an sqlite3 database, which is used as a key-value store.
It has a single table named ItemTable and the relevant key is history.recentlyOpenedPathsList.
The value has the following structure:
{
"entries": [
{
"folderUri": "/path/to/folder",
"label": "...",
"remoteAuthority": "..."
}
]
}
To view the current list, you can run the following command:
sqlite3.exe -readonly "%APPDATA%\Code\User\globalStorage\state.vscdb" "SELECT [value] FROM ItemTable WHERE [key] = 'history.recentlyOpenedPathsList'" | jq ".entries[].label"
Modifying the settings
Specifically, I was interested in changing the way it's displayed (the label), so I'll detail how I did that, but it should be just as easy to update the path.
Here's the Python code I used to make those edits:
import json, sqlite3
# open the db, get the value and parse it
db = sqlite3.connect('C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/Code/User/globalStorage/state.vscdb')
history_raw = db.execute("SELECT [value] FROM ItemTable WHERE [key] = 'history.recentlyOpenedPathsList'").fetchone()[0]
history = json.loads(history_raw)
# make the changes you'd like
# ...
# stringify and update
history_raw = json.dumps(history)
db.execute(f"UPDATE ItemTable SET [value] = '{history_raw}' WHERE key = 'history.recentlyOpenedPathsList'")
db.commit()
db.close()
Code references
For reference (mostly for my future self), here are the relevant source code areas.
The settings are read here.
The File->Open Recent uses those values as-is (see here).
However when using the Get Started page, the Recents area is populated here. In the Get Started, the label is presented in a slightly different way:
vscode snapshot
The folder name is the link, and the parent folder is the the text beside it.
This is done by the splitName method.
Notes
Before messing around with the settings file, it would be wise to back it up.
I'm not sure how vscode handles and caches the settings, so I think it's best to close all vscode instances before making any changes.
I haven't played around with it too much, so not sure how characters that need to be json-encoded or html-encoded will play out.
Keep in mind that there might be some state saved by other extensions, so if anything weird happens, blame it on that.
For reference, I'm using vscode 1.74.2.

Exclude specific directories from being parsed by intellisense

I am using php-intellisense extension for my Visual Studio Code.
How do I exclude other folders from being parsed by this extension? As of now it only excludes node_modules and vendor folder.
The extension does not seem to have any specific setting so, unless I'm missing something, the only way to accomplish that is the files.exclude directive. It should definitively work with all languages because it basically makes the file or directory totally disappear from the program.
Beware though of the consequences: you won't even see the folder in the file explorer, nor will it show in searches.
There is an opened issue on the author's github. I've just added a comment to explain how to workaround it.
Please have a look to my comment: https://github.com/felixfbecker/php-language-server/issues/159#issuecomment-514581602
In brief, you can change the way the workspace files are scanned in this file :
C:\Users\USER\ .vscode\extensions\felixfbecker.php-intellisense-xxxx\vendor\felixfbecker\language-server\src\ Indexer.php
public function index(): Promise
{
return coroutine(function () {
// Old code using the rootPath
//$pattern = Path::makeAbsolute('**/*.php', $this->rootPath);
// My new pattern
$pattern = Path::makeAbsolute('**/*.php', 'C:/Users/[USER]/Projects/sources/app/code');
$uris = yield $this->filesFinder->find($pattern);
// ...
});
}
Restart VS Code after saving the changes and it will only index the needed path.

Marmalade corrupts textures when deployed to Android

I'm currently writing an application for Android using Marmalade. I must say that I find the .mkb syntax highly annoying, regardless of that, Marmalade seems to be corrupting my textures, but only when I add the files to my .mkb file.
With the following MKB file, my output is this
#!/usr/bin/env mkb
files
{
[Source]
(Source)
MobileMario.cpp
Game.h
Game.cpp
Renderer.h
Renderer.cpp
Scene.h
Scene.cpp
Scene_Menu.h
Scene_Menu.cpp
Scene_Level.h
Scene_Level.cpp
GUI.h
GUI.cpp
}
subprojects
{
iwutil
iw2dscenegraphcore
iw2dscenegraph
iwgx
iwresmanager
iwtween
}
assets {
(data)
mario.tga
mario.gxfont
(data/Textures)
mario.png
mario_logo.png
options_background.png
(data/Tilemaps)
1_1_test.png
}
deployment
{
}
When I leave out the "assets" section of my .mkb file, the output is this. The output it SHOULD have, is this, as you can see, the fonts don't render on mobile, which probably means I need to add the files to my .mkb file, but doing so (or even adding one file), it corrupts everything.
I changed the way Marmalade's "assets" section looks and everything seems to be working. Still don't know why it corrupted before, at least I don't have the problem anymore.

How to resolve Unable to find file.cpp in path(s) in Marmalade?

I'm just trying to begin develop a game in Marmalade (6.3). But when I have made my new sources (.cpp, and .h) and added them to the mkb, and then trying to run my program, then I got an error which says that Unable to find file.cpp in path(s). It's for all of my files except the files (game.h, game.cpp, main.cpp) which were made by Marmalade when I have chosen the new 2D game project. Should I add my .cpp and .h files to anywhere else?
Thanks
It is difficult to give a categorical answer without more info. However my guess is that you've copied and pasted from an example and not understood about the syntax of the files section. Basically:
files
{
(foo)
humbug.cpp
)
The "(foo)" might look very innocent, but it actually says that humbug.cpp is actually in directory foo - relative to the mkb file. It is common practice to actually use "(source)" and put all the source files in a directory of that name - making the source layout a bit neater.
Naturally if you have (source) and don't put the files actually in directory source, they won't be found. My guess is that is what you are seeing.
Just to clarify previous answer, The format of files directive is like this -
files
{
(<Path relative to MKB>,<Alternate Path>)
["Name of the parent Group in VS/XCode project","Name of the subparent group"]
fileName.cpp
fileName.h
}
for example I have two files SoundManager.h and SoundManager.cpp in System folder of Source, while MainMenu.h and MainMenu.cpp in Source/UI. Now the files directive would be -
files
{
(Source/System)
["Source","System"] #This part is not required, it's just to arrange your files in IDE project
SoundManager.h
SoundManager.cpp
(Source/UI)
("Source","UI")
MainMenu.h
ManinMenu.cpp
}

Joomla template parameters and params.ini - file becomes unwritable after save

I am using wamp on Win XP SP3 and creating a Joomla template with changeable parameters.
initially the message is
The parameter file \templates\ssc_2010\params.ini is
writable!
once I make changes everything works as expected, except now i get the message:
The parameter file \templates\ssc_2010\params.ini is
unwritable!
One solution is to brows to the directory, right click the file, select properties, and uncheck read-only. Again the file is writable but once I modify the parameters again it becomes read only again. I'm quite lazy and would like to prevent this from happening again, I've notice this happening in past projects, but now I have to work a lot with parameters so it becomes quite boring doing manual labor like that :P
There is a bug in Joomla 1.5 that causes the message to be displayed.
A security feature was added that makes the template files unwritable until just before save, where they are made writable, saved, then made unwritable again.
Try to make a change, then go back and check the preview. You will see that the change was actually made.
If you want to fix the annoying unwritable message, add the following code to
administrator/components/controller.php around line 179, just after setting the FTP credentials:
$file = $client->path.DS.'templates'.DS.$template.DS.'params.ini';
// Try to make the params file writeable
if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0755')) {
JError::raiseNotice('SOME_ERROR_CODE', JText::_('Could not make the template parameter file writable'));
}
This will make the file writable during the edit load process, and before the file's status is posted in the template.
Then for security, in case the edit screen is closed without saving, search for the following lines:
require_once (JPATH_COMPONENT.DS.'admin.templates.html.php');
TemplatesView::editTemplate($row, $lists, $params, $option, $client, $ftp, $template);
and paste the following code just AFTER these lines but before the closing brace:
// Try to make the params file unwriteable
if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0555')) {
JError::raiseNotice('SOME_ERROR_CODE', JText::_('Could not make the template parameter file unwritable'));
}
That will make the file unwritable again.
This is the same code that is used in the saveTemplate() function. We are just doing it again before we display the status of the file on the edit screen. If the process fails because of your web server's configuration, you will get warning messages, BEFORE you've made a bunch of changes to your template. :)
P.S. Remember to save a copy of this file separately, so that you can redo the changes when you upgrade Joomla! (if they haven't fixed this themselves yet.)
This sounds like a user rights problem within Windows - have a look a the security permissions for the directory in which the file you are editing is located, and check that the user "IUSR_xxx" (where xxx is the name of your computer) has full control.
If this doesn't work, then can you tell us what version of Windows you are running as this may help...
