Question about processing list of files twice

[David J. Weller-Fahy]

I'm trying to get my index.md files to copy without processing as well
as being used to build the index.html files.

My most recent attempt was to create the following.

#+
-- Render posts
match "posts/*/*/*/*/*.md" $ do
route $ setExtension ".html"
compile $ pageCompiler
>>> arr(renderDateField "formatteddate"
"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" "Unknown Date")
>>> applyTemplateCompiler "templates/post.html"
>>> applyTemplateCompiler "templates/default.html"
>>> relativizeUrlsCompiler
>>> removeIndex'

-- Copy posts' source
match "posts/*/*/*/*/*.md" $ do
route $ idRoute
compile $ copyFileCompiler
#-

This didn't work (the second match never triggered), although the
website was created.

To be clear, if I have a single index.md file in the root. I would
expect there to be an index.html and index.md file in _site/ after
rebuilding the site if this were to work properly. So, can anyone give
me a clue how to do this? I'm still working through the haskell
tutorials, but I'm not done yet.

Regards,

Note: I just found this URL [1].

Which makes it clear this can be done in Hakyll 4, and narrows my
question: Is there a way to do this in Hakyll 3?

Hello,

This approach should work:

Hrm... it compiles fine, but adding that simply gave me the following
error on rebuild:

#v+
[ ERROR] Hakyll.Core.Compiler.getDependency:
posts/1998/02/21/Land_o_clay/index.md (raw) was found in the cache, but
does not have the right type: expected Page [Char] but got CopyFile
#v-

Odd... however, given that you've released Hakyll 4, and I know this can
be done using that, I believe I'll simply upgrade to Hakyll 4 and ignore
this.

If you do want me to try something else (if this is a problem and not
just me doing something wrong) to narrow this down, then let me know.

Thank you!
