Simple Q: is there a way to exclude a file when running nanoc compile (in this case an experimental .html file placed in "content" so I can preview it with all the site’s styles etc.)?

Hey there,

The approach I use in this case is to remove the file (from memory) in the preprocessor:

    preprocess do
      @items.delete_if { |i| i[:draft] }
    end

This won’t delete the file from the filesystem, but will make Nanoc forget about it, as if it never existed.

Hope this helps,
