The error message refers to js1 but there’s no file called js1 in your project. Could this error be the result of a typo in index.html.pm or template.html.p?

I had been trying different things, creating a js1 directory instead of symlinks, so that directory did exist, I made a mistake entering the layout above. If I remove the directory js1 to make the directory conform to the layout above, I get the same error:

If content is essentially a mirror of your public web directory, then to simulate the live environment, you’d want to a) start the project server from content as the top-level directory, and b) usually it’s easiest to use absolute URLs to refer to CSS and JS resources located near the top. For instance, in template.html.p you would refer to "/js/app.js" and "/css/app.css" — these URLs would work in the project server, and also in your public directory, since it has the same structure.

adamfeuer commented on June 17, 2024

Here's an excerpt of what's in content/template.p:

[...]
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" mgdia="all" href="/css/app.css" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" mgdia="all" href="/styles.css" />
[...]
    <script src="/js/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="/js/foundation.js"></script>
    <script src="/js/app.js"></script>
[...]

So it seems like I'm doing what you are suggesting. But why am I getting a rendering error? It seems like pollen doesn't like something about these directories.

Note that if I remove the css and js directories, I can render using the raco pollen start webserver, but the HTML won't be displayed right in my web browser; or I can render to a separate output dir via my script, and then add the css and js directories back in.

Perhaps you can show your

index.html.pm
pollen.rkt
template.html.p

to make it easier to debug?

@sorawee Thanks, here's the files:

@sorawee @mbutterick If I remove the css and js dirs, I get this error from the web server, pollen seems like it's reading the links in the HTML and trying to find and render pollen files. Then it fails, and reads from cache.

Is there a way to tell the pollen web server that these are static directories? So it won't try to render them?

$ raco pollen start .

The problem, I think, is due to the use of ◊(select 'h1 prev-page) and ◊(select 'h1 next-page) in your template.html.p. Since you didn't define index.ptree, Pollen automatically generates one for you, which contains non-Pollen files. Therefore, the lookup for h1 fail.

So either create index.ptree that contains only Pollen files, or if you don't actually want the previous and next links, just remove:

    ◊(define prev-page (previous here))
    ◊when/splice[prev-page]{
    <div id="prev">← <a href="◊|prev-page|">◊(select 'h1 prev-page)</a></div>}
    ◊(define next-page (next here))
    ◊when/splice[next-page]{
    <div id="next"><a href="◊|next-page|">◊(select 'h1 next-page)</a> →</div>}

from your template.html.p.

See https://docs.racket-lang.org/pollen/second-tutorial.html#%28part._tutorial-2._.Pagetrees%29 for more details about the pagetree file.

mbutterick commented on June 17, 2024

I get the same errors as you (because I am missing the files — those are the errors I would expect). When I create stub files in the "js" and "css" directories that match those filenames, the errors go away (as I also expect).

There isn’t a fixed boundary between “static directories” and others. Suppose you link to a file "/dir/src.js". If it exists as a static file, the project server uses that. If it doesn’t, the project server looks for a corresponding Pollen source file, renders it, and serves the result.

In other words, a directory of static web files is itself a valid Pollen project and ought to function normally without any need for further configuration.

adamfeuer commented on June 17, 2024

@sorawee You're right, it was the lack of a pagetree file. I will want the previous and next links when I expand my book, so having the pagetree is necessary. I created this:

#lang pollen

index.html

And now I can use the pollen server with my static css and js files.

Thank you @sorawee and @mbutterick for the help!
