Support layout and page title in same page? about markdownviewengine HOT 9 CLOSED

Ooh, it looks like I can put a _ViewStart.md in each view directory, and that will be picked up. That will be a fine solution for me...

Nope, that doesn't work - I've tried a few things, and although a single _ViewStart.md with @layout _Layout looks like it might work, I don't see any way of specifying a layout relative to the page itself.
I think I can make do with two controllers, although it's a bit ugly...

@jskeet I change the directives little bit last week but I didn't push the updates yet, hope I will do it soon.
Regarding _ViewStart it is limited now so the engine only able to pick it from the shared folder

Uploading the latest change will fix the issue. Also I will look to support multiple _ViewStart so you will be able to add one in each folder

RIghto - will use different controllers just for now, but fix it later - thanks :)

No need for multiple _ViewStart in this particular case, so long as there's a way of making a single @layout directive work relative to the rendered Markdown page - I can just call the layout _Layout.md in every directory.

Yes you can, but it's tedious 😄, we can support _ViewStart per folder such as Razor Engine

After looking to the latest code the @page directive introduces a property called Layout instead of the @Layout directive, so this absolutely will solve your issue

@jskeet after this commit ac6800b this should be fixed. You can have a look to this https://github.com/hishamco/MarkdownViewEngine/blob/master/samples/MarkdownViewEngineSample/Views/Home/Index.md and https://github.com/hishamco/MarkdownViewEngine/blob/master/samples/MarkdownViewEngineSample/Views/Home/About.md which there are using different layouts
