🤗 [Question]: How can i divide my layout, component and views folders

[Necoo33]

Question Description

Hello, i want to know how to structure my code with the way that components, layouts and pages/views are individual folders in same directory.

It would be great if you do necessary changes on the following code:

package main

import (
	"github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
	"github.com/gofiber/template/html/v2"
)

func main() {
	htmlFiles := html.New("./pages", ".html")
	htmlFiles.Reload(true)

	server := fiber.New(fiber.Config{
		Views: htmlFiles,
	})

	server.Get("/", func(context *fiber.Ctx) error {
		return context.Render("home", fiber.Map{
			"Data": "Hello",
		})
	})

	server.Listen(":2000")
}

Code Snippet (optional)

package main

import "github.com/gofiber/template/%package%"

func main() {
  // Steps to reproduce
}

I want to make all the three folders in same tree level on the root directory like this:

components
pages
layouts
mainpoint(main package exist int here)
go.work
go.sum

You can use the root folder as view folder
since we have the extension in the engine, all files that do not match the extension will be skipped

Thanks, it worked. I think you should consider allowing to put layout and view folders in the root directory without setting root folder of engine as view folder, for the sake of avoid to give access to all folders in the root directory when we want to structure our layouts and pages in the same tree level.
