Sometimes you may want to include an external file in your project. Currently, you can either encode the file as base64 using a snippet helper, or rely on a separate bash script that runs beforehand.
It would be helpful to introduce a new helper: copyFile. This helper would copy the specified file into the output directory, prefix the filename with a random string to avoid name clashes, and return the new path.
Here’s an example usage:
<img src="{{copyFile '../../../images/logo.png'}}" />In some cases, you might want to copy a file as part of the build process without including its path in the rendered output. To support this use case, the helper could accept an optional silent=true flag:
{{copyFile '../../../docs/README.pdf' silent=true}}This would copy the file to the output directory as usual, but return nothing to the template.
