compileTemplateFile cannot open File

[sdmcallister]

In test.nim I have:

import nimja

proc renderNimjaStr(ss:string, l: seq[string]): string =
  compileTemplateStr(
    """<div><p>{{ss}}</p>{% for (i) in l %}<p>{{i}}</p>{% endfor %}</div>"""
  )

proc renderNimjaFile(ss:string, l: seq[string]): string =
  compileTemplateFile("index.nwt")
  
echo renderNimjaStr("Foo", @["hello", "world"])
echo renderNimjaFile("Foo", @["hello", "world"])

in the same dir i have index.nwt:

<div><p>{{ss}}</p>{% for (i) in l %}<p>{{i}}</p>{% endfor %}</div>

Running nim c -r test.nim I get:

template/generic instantiation of `compileTemplateFile` from here
sharedhelper.nim(9, 15) Error: cannot open file: index.nwt

renderNimjaStr works fine.

Please try:

compileTemplateFile(getScriptDir() / "index.nwt")

I changed the code to:

proc renderNimjaFile(ss:string, l: seq[string]): string =
  compileTemplateFile(getScriptDir() / "index.nwt")

running `nim c -r Error:

but expected one of:

yes you also must do
import os
for "/"

Darn I feel smart. I swear I did this earlier and it also failed, but clearly I imagined that. Ok, it works. Thanks!
