Keep whitespace in included html

Help

I found the culprit: it was compress html, automatically included by just-the-docs

With this identified, there are a number of ways to fix my issue:

  • The simplest: just add the following to _config.yml
    compress_html:
  blanklines: true
    with this compress html will only remove blank lines, which fixes my issue as there are no blank lines in the generated code blocks.
  • Use a page/layout that inherits from nothing for the relevant pages. This isn’t really satisfactory as it means copying the whole just-the-docs layout to your new layout.
  • Edit _layout/vendor/compress.html to allow for per page/layout configuration. I opened an issue which mentions the edits I performed to have a way to toggle it off or switch it to blanklines mode on a page/layout basis. See this commit for my implementation of it (Important files: _layout/vendor/compress.html and the frontmatter of _layout/odoc.html)
