[Feature Request] Get content of subdirectories also

Feature Idea

When fetching a content from a directory it would be awesome to have the content from the sub directories listed as well.

Expected behaviour

-| content/
---| articles/
------| article.md
------| new/
---------| inside-new.md

Current with the directory tree as above if I fetch the content as

await this.$content('articles').fetch()

only article is in the response. It would be awesome to have the content from subdirectory of articles, in this case new would be fetched as well. i.e. article and inside-new would all be in the resposne after fetch.

Possible solution

I agree not everyone would love to have this behavious by default. So I thought of two possible solutions to have this feature and also keep the current behavious

1. Pass a boolean parameter to .fetch() method, depending on which the subdirectory will be or won’t be fetched… Default can be false for the compatibility with current bahaviour.

2. Add a new method which acts just like fetch but gets content from subdirectories as well… something like .fetchDeep() or anything that makes sense.

Other stuffs

I am loving this module a lot. It makes lots of things really easier compared to how annoying they were earlier. Regarding the feature request, that is just my idea. I would love to know if that would not be possible or won’t be implemented.

Hey @TheLearneer,

We’ve taken into account this feature already and will be working on it soon 😃.

Is should be more like:

await this.$content('articles', { deep: true }).fetch()
