This was partly broken in Hugo 0.123.0.
We have two internal config options that gets set from the CLI:
* Running; a web server is running
* Watching; either set via `hugo -w` or `hugo server --watch=false`
Part of the change detection code wrongly used the `Running` as a flag when `Watching` would be the correct.
Fixes#12296
There are some breaking changes in this commit, see #11455.
Closes#11455Closes#11549
This fixes a set of bugs (see issue list) and it is also paying some technical debt accumulated over the years. We now build with Staticcheck enabled in the CI build.
The performance should be about the same as before for regular sized Hugo sites, but it should perform and scale much better to larger data sets, as objects that uses lots of memory (e.g. rendered Markdown, big JSON files read into maps with transform.Unmarshal etc.) will now get automatically garbage collected if needed. Performance on partial rebuilds when running the server in fast render mode should be the same, but the change detection should be much more accurate.
A list of the notable new features:
* A new dependency tracker that covers (almost) all of Hugo's API and is used to do fine grained partial rebuilds when running the server.
* A new and simpler tree document store which allows fast lookups and prefix-walking in all dimensions (e.g. language) concurrently.
* You can now configure an upper memory limit allowing for much larger data sets and/or running on lower specced PCs.
We have lifted the "no resources in sub folders" restriction for branch bundles (e.g. sections).
Memory Limit
* Hugos will, by default, set aside a quarter of the total system memory, but you can set this via the OS environment variable HUGO_MEMORYLIMIT (in gigabytes). This is backed by a partitioned LRU cache used throughout Hugo. A cache that gets dynamically resized in low memory situations, allowing Go's Garbage Collector to free the memory.
New Dependency Tracker: Hugo has had a rule based coarse grained approach to server rebuilds that has worked mostly pretty well, but there have been some surprises (e.g. stale content). This is now revamped with a new dependency tracker that can quickly calculate the delta given a changed resource (e.g. a content file, template, JS file etc.). This handles transitive relations, e.g. $page -> js.Build -> JS import, or $page1.Content -> render hook -> site.GetPage -> $page2.Title, or $page1.Content -> shortcode -> partial -> site.RegularPages -> $page2.Content -> shortcode ..., and should also handle changes to aggregated values (e.g. site.Lastmod) effectively.
This covers all of Hugo's API with 2 known exceptions (a list that may not be fully exhaustive):
Changes to files loaded with template func os.ReadFile may not be handled correctly. We recommend loading resources with resources.Get
Changes to Hugo objects (e.g. Page) passed in the template context to lang.Translate may not be detected correctly. We recommend having simple i18n templates without too much data context passed in other than simple types such as strings and numbers.
Note that the cachebuster configuration (when A changes then rebuild B) works well with the above, but we recommend that you revise that configuration, as it in most situations should not be needed. One example where it is still needed is with TailwindCSS and using changes to hugo_stats.json to trigger new CSS rebuilds.
Document Store: Previously, a little simplified, we split the document store (where we store pages and resources) in a tree per language. This worked pretty well, but the structure made some operations harder than they needed to be. We have now restructured it into one Radix tree for all languages. Internally the language is considered to be a dimension of that tree, and the tree can be viewed in all dimensions concurrently. This makes some operations re. language simpler (e.g. finding translations is just a slice range), but the idea is that it should also be relatively inexpensive to add more dimensions if needed (e.g. role).

Primary motivation is documentation, but it will also hopefully simplify the code.
Also,
* Lower case the default output format names; this is in line with the custom ones (map keys) and how
it's treated all the places. This avoids doing `stringds.EqualFold` everywhere.

Instead of maintaing a list of all CSS units and functions this commit:
* Uses 3 regexps to detect typed CSS values (e.g. `24px`) + properly handle numeric Go types.
* These regexps may have some false positives -- e.g. strings that needs to be quoted.
* For that rare case, you can mark the string with e.g. `"32xxx" | css.Quoted`
* For the opposite case: `"32" | css.Unquoted`
Updates #10632
You can now create custom hook templates for code blocks, either one for all (`render-codeblock.html`) or for a given code language (e.g. `render-codeblock-go.html`).
We also used this new hook to add support for diagrams in Hugo:
* Goat (Go ASCII Tool) is built-in and enabled by default; just create a fenced code block with the language `goat` and start draw your Ascii diagrams.
* Another popular alternative for diagrams in Markdown, Mermaid (supported by GitHub), can also be implemented with a simple template. See the Hugo documentation for more information.

The change in lock logic for `partialCached` in 0927cf739f was naive as it didn't consider cached partials calling other cached partials.
This changeset may look on the large side for this particular issue, but it pulls in part of a working branch, introducing `context.Context` in the template execution.
Note that the context is only partially implemented in this PR, but the upcoming use cases will, as one example, include having access to the top "dot" (e.g. `Page`) all the way down into partials and shortcodes etc.
The earlier benchmarks rerun against master:
```bash
name old time/op new time/op delta
IncludeCached-10 13.6ms ± 2% 13.8ms ± 1% ~ (p=0.343 n=4+4)
name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta
IncludeCached-10 5.30MB ± 0% 5.35MB ± 0% +0.96% (p=0.029 n=4+4)
name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta
IncludeCached-10 74.7k ± 0% 75.3k ± 0% +0.77% (p=0.029 n=4+4)
```
Fixes#9519
* Fix change detection when .GetPage/site.GetPage is used from shortcode
* Fix stale content for GetPage results with short name lookups on server reloads
Fixes#7623Fixes#7624Fixes#7625
This commit also
* revises the change detection for templates used by content files in server mode.
* Adds a Page.RenderString method
Fixes#6545Fixes#4663Closes#6043
This is a big commit, but it deletes lots of code and simplifies a lot.
* Resolving the template funcs at execution time means we don't have to create template clones per site
* Having a custom map resolver means that we can remove the AST lower case transformation for the special lower case Params map
Not only is the above easier to reason about, it's also faster, especially if you have more than one language, as in the benchmark below:
```
name old time/op new time/op delta
SiteNew/Deep_content_tree-16 53.7ms ± 0% 48.1ms ± 2% -10.38% (p=0.029 n=4+4)
name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta
SiteNew/Deep_content_tree-16 41.0MB ± 0% 36.8MB ± 0% -10.26% (p=0.029 n=4+4)
name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta
SiteNew/Deep_content_tree-16 481k ± 0% 410k ± 0% -14.66% (p=0.029 n=4+4)
```
This should be even better if you also have lots of templates.
Closes#6594
This means that the current `.Site` and ´.Hugo` is available as a globals, so you can do `site.IsServer`, `hugo.Version` etc.
Fixes#5470Fixes#5467Fixes#5503
Before this commit, you would have to use page bundles to do image processing etc. in Hugo.
This commit adds
* A new `/assets` top-level project or theme dir (configurable via `assetDir`)
* A new template func, `resources.Get` which can be used to "get a resource" that can be further processed.
This means that you can now do this in your templates (or shortcodes):
```bash
{{ $sunset := (resources.Get "images/sunset.jpg").Fill "300x200" }}
```
This also adds a new `extended` build tag that enables powerful SCSS/SASS support with source maps. To compile this from source, you will also need a C compiler installed:
```
HUGO_BUILD_TAGS=extended mage install
```
Note that you can use output of the SCSS processing later in a non-SCSSS-enabled Hugo.
The `SCSS` processor is a _Resource transformation step_ and it can be chained with the many others in a pipeline:
```bash
{{ $css := resources.Get "styles.scss" | resources.ToCSS | resources.PostCSS | resources.Minify | resources.Fingerprint }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ $styles.RelPermalink }}" integrity="{{ $styles.Data.Digest }}" media="screen">
```
The transformation funcs above have aliases, so it can be shortened to:
```bash
{{ $css := resources.Get "styles.scss" | toCSS | postCSS | minify | fingerprint }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ $styles.RelPermalink }}" integrity="{{ $styles.Data.Digest }}" media="screen">
```
A quick tip would be to avoid the fingerprinting part, and possibly also the not-superfast `postCSS` when you're doing development, as it allows Hugo to be smarter about the rebuilding.
Documentation will follow, but have a look at the demo repo in https://github.com/bep/hugo-sass-test
New functions to create `Resource` objects:
* `resources.Get` (see above)
* `resources.FromString`: Create a Resource from a string.
New `Resource` transformation funcs:
* `resources.ToCSS`: Compile `SCSS` or `SASS` into `CSS`.
* `resources.PostCSS`: Process your CSS with PostCSS. Config file support (project or theme or passed as an option).
* `resources.Minify`: Currently supports `css`, `js`, `json`, `html`, `svg`, `xml`.
* `resources.Fingerprint`: Creates a fingerprinted version of the given Resource with Subresource Integrity..
* `resources.Concat`: Concatenates a list of Resource objects. Think of this as a poor man's bundler.
* `resources.ExecuteAsTemplate`: Parses and executes the given Resource and data context (e.g. .Site) as a Go template.

As a first step to remove the hard ties between `tplimpl` and the different namespace packages.
The `lang` package is used as the first example use case.
See #3042
This commit moves almost all of the template functions into separate
packages under tpl/ and adds a namespace framework. All changes should
be backward compatible for end users, as all existing function names in
the template funcMap are left intact.
Seq and DoArithmatic have been moved out of the helpers package and into
template namespaces.
Most of the tests involved have been refactored, and many new tests have
been written. There's still work to do, but this is a big improvement.
I got a little overzealous and added some new functions along the way:
- strings.Contains
- strings.ContainsAny
- strings.HasSuffix
- strings.TrimPrefix
- strings.TrimSuffix
Documentation is forthcoming.
Fixes#3042
Most obvius benefit of this is to include CSS partials with css file suffix into HTML templates.
A valid workaround would be to rename the file `mystyles.html`, but that doesn't work too good for external editors etc.
The css partial is a method used in some themes before Hugo 0.20, but then it stopped working.
This commit reintroduces that behaviour.
Note that the regular layout lookups for text templates, i.e. "single.json" will be
prefixed with "_text/" on lookup and will only match in the text collection.
Fixes#3273
Before this commit, Hugo used `html/template` for all Go templates.
While this is a fine choice for HTML and maybe also RSS feeds, it is painful for plain text formats such as CSV, JSON etc.
This commit fixes that by using the `IsPlainText` attribute on the output format to decide what to use.
A couple of notes:
* The above requires a nonambiguous template name to type mapping. I.e. `/layouts/_default/list.json` will only work if there is only one JSON output format, `/layouts/_default/list.mytype.json` will always work.
* Ambiguous types will fall back to HTML.
* Partials inherits the text vs HTML identificator of the container template. This also means that plain text templates can only include plain text partials.
* Shortcode templates are, by definition, currently HTML templates only.
