WikiLinkFollow for asciidoc links (angle bracketed links) doesn't call WikiResolver

[bybor]

I keep journal entries under a separate directory and use a custom WikiResolver to see if the link points to a journal or to a regular file. I wanted to use asciidoc link like <<some file>> for already existing file. But following link created a new file under the journal directory. I figured out that it didn't call WikiResolver.

Could you please make WikiLinkFollow to call WikiResolver in this case?

If it doesn't make sense without a working example and test files, please excuse me and let me know. I'll prepare them and will update the issue.

Thanks!

It's hard to see immediately what you mean. It would be very useful if you could provide an example set of files and the relevant configuration.

But some quick thoughts: You are discussing the g:wiki_resolver option, right? If so, notice the initial text in the docs:

*g:wiki_resolver*
  The name of the function to resolve wiki-schemed links, i.e., the standard
  link scheme. The default should work well for most people, but this option

In particular, note that this is only relevant for wiki-schemed links. I believe this does not include the asciidoc links, since these will use the adoc link scheme.

Thank you, it makes sense. This means that it's "by design" behavior, but I didn't understand it.

Reading through the docs I assumed that WikiFollowLink will take me through adoc link to an anchor if it's specified, like <<here#go>>. I don't think documentation promises it, but it's mentioned. When I tried it I was blocked by the fact that custom path resolver (defined by me) is not called.

See, WikiFollowLink undestands adoc scheme though it's not wiki.vim scheme), but it doesn't apply resolver b/c it's not wiki.vim scheme.

I'm not really sure WikiFollowLink can navigate to an anchor, so be it. Thanks!!

I've tried to improve the documentation slightly. If you find something specific to be unclear, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Anchors are supported and should work as explained in the docs, see :help wiki-link-adoc-xref. But note that the syntax is <<filename.adoc#anchor>>. You can't leave out the .adoc part, as that's part of the specification (if I've understood the adoc xref documentation correctly).
