There are two different scripts here:
docs/run-in-docs.jl./run-from-root.jl
One works and one doesn't. The working case is to do the following:
$ cd docs
$ julia --project=.. ./run-in-docs.jl
This will create the expected files (sample.md and sample-4.svg) in the
./other directory.
However, running the following:
$ julia --project=. ./run-from-root.jl
from the root directory of this project (i.e., alongside this README.md)
results in the following error:
Info: generating markdown page from `~/Source/MWEs/literate-jl-dir-issue/docs/sample.jl`
ERROR: LoadError: SystemError: opening file "./other/sample-4.svg": No such file or directory
Stacktrace:
[1] systemerror(p::String, errno::Int32; extrainfo::Nothing)
@ Base ./error.jl:176
What is strange is that running the working version actually generates a file
./other/sample-4.svg so why is it reporting that this file is missing? I even
tried creating the directory ./docs/other in case it was somehow reframing the
current directory to be ./docs but that doesn't change the error.
In short, I don't understand what Literate.jl is complaining about in the case
of the ./run-from-root.jl script. What should I be doing differently?
