Server Side Rendering appears to no longer work

[tobyhede]

Bug Report

Steps to reproduce

Follow the instructions on Server Side Rendering
https://docsify.js.org/#/ssr

What is current behaviour

Following the SSR instructions results in a blank page.
It looks like the app and config are not being injected by the server.

Using the package.json configuration, I can get docsify start to run.
It looks like there is also a bug in docsify-cli when using the config file -c option .

What is the expected behaviour

The content should be rendered into the appropriate areas in the HTML template marked by comments.

  <!--inject-app-->
  <!--inject-config-->

can you share a reproducible repo ?

Sandbox is here - https://codesandbox.io/s/github/tobyhede/docsify-ssr

docsify start . -c ssr.config.js has an error.

SSR Docs says "You can configure it in a special config file, or package.json."
So I used docsify start with package.json.

But the injection doesn't happen.
