## **0.18.0** December 19th 2016
|
|||
|
|||
Today, we're excited to release the much-anticipated Hugo 0.18!
|
|||
|
|||
We're heading towards the end of the year 2016, and we can look back on three releases and a steady growing community around the project.
|
|||
This release includes **over 220 contributions by nearly 50 contributors** to the main codebase.
|
|||
Since the last release, Hugo has **gained 1750 stars and 27 additional themes**.
|
|||
|
|||
Hugo now has:
|
|||
|
|||
- 13750+ stars
|
|||
- 408+ contributors
|
|||
- 137+ themes
|
|||
|
|||
{{< gh "@bep" >}} once again took the lead of Hugo and contributed a significant amount of additions.
|
|||
Also a big shoutout to {{< gh "@digitalcraftsman" >}} for his relentless work on keeping the documentation and the themes site in pristine condition,
|
|||
and also a big thanks to {{< gh "@moorereason" >}} and {{< gh "@bogem" >}} for their contributions.
|
|||
|
|||
We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.<br>
|
|||
*The Hugo team*
|
|||
|
|||
### Highlights
|
|||
|
|||
The primary new feature in Hugo 0.18 is that every piece of content is now a `Page` ({{<gh 2297>}}). This means that every page, including the homepage, can have a content file with front matter.
|
|||
|
|||
Not only is this a much simpler model to understand, it is also faster and paved the way for several important new features:
|
|||
|
|||
* Enable proper titles for Nodes {{<gh 1051>}}
|
|||
* Sitemap.xml should include nodes, as well as pages {{<gh 1303>}}
|
|||
* Document homepage content workaround {{<gh 2240>}}
|
|||
* Allow home page to be easily authored in markdown {{<gh 720>}}
|
|||
* Minimalist website with homepage as content {{<gh 330>}}
|
|||
|
|||
Hugo again continues its trend of each release being faster than the last. It's quite a challenge to consistently add significant new functionality and simultaneously dramatically improve performance. Running [this benchmark]( https://github.com/bep/hugo-benchmark) with [these sites](https://github.com/bep/hugo-benchmark/tree/master/sites) (renders to memory) shows about 60% reduction in time spent and 30% reduction in memory usage compared to Hugo 0.17.
|
|||
|
|||
### Other New Features
|
|||
|
|||
* Every `Page` now has a `Kind` property. Since everything is a `Page` now, the `Kind` is used to differentiate different kinds of pages.
|
|||
Possible values are `page`, `home`, `section`, `taxonomy`, and `taxonomyTerm`.
|
|||
(Internally, we also define `RSS`, `sitemap`, `robotsTXT`, and `404`, but those have no practical use for end users at the moment since they are not included in any collections.)
|
|||
* Add a `GitInfo` object to `Page` if `enableGitInfo` is set. It then also sets `Lastmod` for the given `Page` to the author date provided by Git. {{<gh 2291>}}
|
|||
* Implement support for alias templates {{<gh 2533 >}}
|
|||
* New template functions:
|
|||
* Add `imageConfig` function {{<gh 2677>}}
|
|||
* Add `sha256` function {{<gh 2762>}}
|
|||
* Add `partialCached` template function {{<gh 1368>}}
|
|||
* Add shortcode to display Instagram images {{<gh 2690>}}
|
|||
* Add `noChmod` option to disable perm sync {{<gh 2749>}}
|
|||
* Add `quiet` build mode {{<gh 1218>}}
|
|||
|
|||
|
|||
### Notices
|
|||
|
|||
* `.Site.Pages` will now contain *several kinds of pages*, including regular pages, sections, taxonomies, and the home page.
|
|||
If you want a specific kind of page, you can filter it with `where` and `Kind`.
|
|||
`.Site.RegularPages` is a shortcut to the page collection you have been used to getting.
|
|||
* `RSSlink` is now deprecated. Use `RSSLink` instead.
|
|||
Note that in Hugo 0.17 both of them existed, so there is a fifty-fifty chance you will not have to do anything
|
|||
(if you use a theme, the chance is close to 0), and `RSSlink` will still work for two Hugo versions.
|
|||
|
|||
### Fixes
|
|||
|
|||
* Revise the `base` template lookup logic so it now better matches the behavior of regular templates, making it easier to override the master templates from the theme {{<gh 2783>}}
|
|||
* Add workaround for `block` template crash.
|
|||
Block templates are very useful, but there is a bug in Go 1.6 and 1.7 which makes the template rendering crash if you use the block template in more complex scenarios.
|
|||
This is fixed in the upcoming Go 1.8, but Hugo adds a temporary workaround in Hugo 0.18. {{<gh 2549>}}
|
|||
* All the `Params` configurations are now case insensitive {{<gh 1129>}} {{<gh 2590>}} {{<gh 2615>}}
|
|||
* Make RawContent raw again {{<gh 2601>}}
|
|||
* Fix archetype title and date handling {{<gh 2750>}}
|
|||
* Fix TOML archetype parsing in `hugo new` {{<gh 2745>}}
|
|||
* Fix page sorting when weight is zero {{<gh 2673>}}
|
|||
* Fix page names that contain dot {{<gh 2555>}}
|
|||
* Fix RSS Title regression {{<gh 2645>}}
|
|||
* Handle ToC before handling shortcodes {{<gh 2433>}}
|
|||
* Only watch relevant themes dir {{<gh 2602>}}
|
|||
* Hugo new content creates TOML slices with closing bracket on new line {{<gh 2800>}}
|
|||
|
|||
### Improvements
|
|||
|
|||
* Add page information to error logging in rendering {{<gh 2570>}}
|
|||
* Deprecate `RSSlink` in favor of `RSSLink`
|
|||
* Make benchmark command more useful {{<gh 2432>}}
|
|||
* Consolidate the `Param` methods {{<gh 2590>}}
|
|||
* Allow to set cache dir in config file
|
|||
* Performance improvements:
|
|||
* Avoid repeated Viper loads of `sectionPagesMenu` {{<gh 2728>}}
|
|||
* Avoid reading from Viper for path and URL funcs {{<gh 2495>}}
|
|||
* Add `partialCached` template function. This can be a significant performance boost if you have complex partials that does not need to be rerendered for every page. {{<gh 1368>}}
|
|||
|
|||
### Documentation Updates
|
|||
|
|||
* Update roadmap {{<gh 2666>}}
|
|||
* Update multilingual example {{<gh 2417>}}
|
|||
* Add a "Deployment with rsync" tutorial page {{<gh 2658>}}
|
|||
* Refactor `/docs` to use the `block` keyword {{<gh 2226>}}
