Absolute symlinks within generated docs

[craigmcc]

I really like the looks of the output from typedoc-theme-yaf. However, because it uses typedoc-plugin-versions under the covers, the symbolic links that get created are absolute ones -- relative to the directory hierarchy on my development environment.

That makes it basically impossible to transport the generated docs directory to some static webserver, or publish it as GitHub Pages.

Is there any way that you (or the maintainers if any for typedoc-plugin-versions) could make relative symbolic links possible?

Hi @craigmcc

Typedoc-plugin-versions was written as a precursor to this theme, but made published as a separate module for reasons of practicality.

I remember there being issues at the time of writing with symlinks and GitHub. I will need to wrap my head around these again as it was a while ago!

Would you raise this issue on that project page so that my co-maintainer can have eyes in it too.

For use of this theme on GitHub (which does work with the symlinks as they are, depending on how you approach the problem 😅), see the CID guide in the Readme for using GitHub workflows: https://github.com/citkane/typedoc-plugin-versions#cid
