Uses a docpad configuration file to specify template data that we can use in our document to generate absolute urls.

docpad.coffee

module.exports =

	templateData:

		# Site Information
		site:

			# Site Production URL

		getUrl: (document) ->
			return @site.url + (document.url or document.get?('url'))

document.html.eco
