Description

Bug description

When rendering a qmd file from the command line the resources folder is named after the qmd file, rather than the html output. This makes it impossible to parameterise output file names.

type expected actual
source test.qmd test.qmd
resources test_1_files test_files
output test_1.html test_1.html

Render from the command line (Ubuntu 20.04):

quarto render test.qmd --output test_1.html

---
title: "param test"
format: html
editor: source
params:
  x: 10
  y: 0.5
---
