figures not being generated

[ghost]

I've recently come across blowdown after reading and searching for how to include htmlwidgets with jekyll+knitr to no avail.

I've been able to do a basic build using the instructions in the Readme.MD file, however I am struggling to understand why some charts don't end up with a figure being placed in the ../public/... folder.

The chart gets created in the ../blogdown/post/mypost_files/figure-html/ folder however they don't end up in at all in the ../public location.

I've got a repo here that hopefully demonstrates the issue at hand.

Let me know if you need any sessionInfo

Changing the name of the r chunk so it doesn't contain blank spaces solves the problem. From Rainfall chart to rainfall_chart should work ok.

I don't know why an image with a blank space doesn't work, it is created with the correct name and the html src has its %20 in the url. Maybe others can help understanding why it is failing with the whitespace.

That seems to have fixed the problem. I'll leave it open for now in case @yihui wants to look into this.

Yes, %20 is the culprit. Before I copy figures to public/, I should have restored the actual image paths from the encoded paths (a space is encoded as %20).

Before I come up with a fix, you will have to make sure the chunk labels contain no spaces.
