Content dir not working with layers

Environment

• Operating System: Windows_NT
• Node Version: v22.14.0
• Nuxt Version: 3.16.2
• CLI Version: 3.24.1
• Nitro Version: 2.11.8
• Package Manager: [email protected]
• Builder: -
• User Config: compatibilityDate, devtools, extends, future, ssr, content
• Runtime Modules: -

Version

3.4.0

Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-fhf1jy91

1. Run 'npm install' from the 'app' and 'nuxt-layer' dirs
2. from app run 'npm run dev'
3. the index renders 'not found page'
4. move the content dir from nuxt-layer to app
5. the index renders the markdown

Description

When using Nuxt 3 layers, @nuxt/content does not work properly if it's configured inside a layer. The content module is correctly set up within the layer (including the content/ directory and configuration), but the content is not loaded or available in the consuming app.

However, if I move the content/ directory into the app that consumes the layer, everything works as expected.

This suggests that @nuxt/content does not correctly detect or process content from the extended layer.

Thanks for the issue. This should be fixed in #3308. You can test with PR release

npm i https://pkg.pr.new/@nuxt/content@a5cf04e

Note: There is another issue with your reproduction. The app directory uses compatibilityVersion: 4, and the nuxt-layer does not use it. Both layers should share the same structure.

@farnabaz Unfortunately this issue does not seem to be fixed :/

The issue is now the exact opposite:

• version 3.4.0: content from app is loaded but not from layer
• version 3.5.1: content from layer is loaded but not from app

I'd expect that both, the content fron the layer as well as from the app loaded

What worked for me to load content from app :

source: {
  cwd: path.resolve('content'),
  include: '**/*.md',
},

From layer it should be :

source: '**/*.md',

source field seems to be array compatible, so if you want both you might try :

source: ['**/*.md', {
  cwd: path.resolve('content'),
  include: '**/*.md',
}],
