Omit file name ending when rendering Markdown in Caddy

    volumes:
     - $PWD/Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile
     - $PWD/www:/srv

Please don’t forget to make a volume for /data! See the notes on Docker

try_files {path}.md {path}
rewrite * index.html

I think the problem you’re having is with the directive order of the directives you defined. The Caddyfile sorts directives according to this predetermined order:

Caddyfile Directives - Caddy Documentation

But I think what you want to do would be easier to implement by constructing the path inside your template file, similarly to how the Caddy docs do it.

See the index.html from the docs site, and its Caddyfile, as noted in the example for templates in the docs:
