How to sort articles by filename in pelican?

Question

In Pelican 3.5 I know I can sort articles by attributes, like

ARTICLE_ORDER_BY = 'title'

but I would like to order by the filename. It is much easier to change the filenames than to open each file and edit the attributes.

Answer 1

Try this:

ARTICLE_ORDER_BY = 'filename'

or

ARTICLE_ORDER_BY = lambda x:os.path.basename(x.source_path or '')
