Add importField in Hakyll.Web.Template.Context

[Zekt]

As mentioned in #924 I've implemented a field for importing another file in the metadata.
Unfortunately, I haven't found the way to track the dependencies of the imported file (the usage of unsafeCompiler is probably non-ideal), which means rebuilds do not check if the imported files are modified.
Can anyone share some thoughts on how to track the dependencies?

Thanks! To track dependencies, please use Hakyll.Core.Compiler.Internal.compilerTellDependencies.

Hi, @Minoru,
I've tried adding
compilerTellDependencies [IdentifierDependency (fromFilePath fp)]
before L472, where fp is the file path I have read from the import field, but it doesn't seems to track the files I imported (for example, a field import: config.yaml doesn't add config.yaml under the same directory to the dependencies), am I using it in a wrong way?

Also it seems the dependencies added are logged, could you tell me where to look for the compiler logs? Thanks!

I believe all paths in Hakyll are relative to the providerDirectory. Try putting your config.yaml into the directory from which you run Hakyll, and see if it helps. Your compilerTellDependencies invocation looks fine to me, I think it should work.

In order to see logs, run Hakyll with --verbose. It will print them to the console.

By passing --verbose I can see my file is correctly added to the dependencies, but Hakyll doesn't recognize it as edited when checking for out-of-date items, putting the file in the root directory of my project doesn't differ much.
