assets plugin does not fill links (also fails test)

[cycomanic]

The assets plugin does not seem to fill in the links for me. I've also run the test_assets.py and I get a failure on the relative and absolute link tests. Test failures below:

__________________________________________________________ TestWebAssetsRelativeURLS.test_template ___________________________________________________________

    def test_template(self):
        # Look in the output files for the link tag.
    
        css_file = './theme/gen/style.{0}.min.css'.format(CSS_HASH)
        html_files = ['index.html', 'archives.html',
                      'this-is-a-super-article.html']
        for f in html_files:

The legacy assets plugin has been moved to a new dedicated repository at: https://github.com/pelican-plugins/webassets .

Please report there if you're still impacted by the issue. In the mean time, I guess this can be closed.
