In Hugo 0.42, this could lead to errors of type `runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference` in some rare situations.
Note that this was also an issue before 0.42, but the symptom was then potentially stale list content on rebuilds on content changes.
This commit also improves the above error message.
Fixes#4845
This commit adds support for theme composition and inheritance in Hugo.
With this, it helps thinking about a theme as a set of ordered components:
```toml
theme = ["my-shortcodes", "base-theme", "hyde"]
```
The theme definition example above in `config.toml` creates a theme with the 3 components with presedence from left to right.
So, Hugo will, for any given file, data entry etc., look first in the project, and then in `my-shortcode`, `base-theme` and lastly `hyde`.
Hugo uses two different algorithms to merge the filesystems, depending on the file type:
* For `i18n` and `data` files, Hugo merges deeply using the translation id and data key inside the files.
* For `static`, `layouts` (templates) and `archetypes` files, these are merged on file level. So the left-most file will be chosen.
The name used in the `theme` definition above must match a folder in `/your-site/themes`, e.g. `/your-site/themes/my-shortcodes`. There are plans to improve on this and get a URL scheme so this can be resolved automatically.
Also note that a component that is part of a theme can have its own configuration file, e.g. `config.toml`. There are currently some restrictions to what a theme component can configure:
* `params` (global and per language)
* `menu` (global and per language)
* `outputformats` and `mediatypes`
The same rules apply here: The left-most param/menu etc. with the same ID will win. There are some hidden and experimental namespace support in the above, which we will work to improve in the future, but theme authors are encouraged to create their own namespaces to avoid naming conflicts.
A final note: Themes/components can also have a `theme` definition in their `config.toml` and similar, which is the "inheritance" part of this commit's title. This is currently not supported by the Hugo theme site. We will have to wait for some "auto dependency" feature to be implemented for that to happen, but this can be a powerful feature if you want to create your own theme-variant based on others.
Fixes#4460Fixes#4450
This is a follow-up to #4632. There were some assumptions in that implementation that did not hold water in all situations.
This commit simplifies the content lazy initalization making it more robust.
Fixes#4664
This resolves some surprising behaviour when reading other pages' content from shortcodes. Before this commit, that behaviour was undefined. Note that this has never been an issue from regular templates.
It will still not be possible to get **the current shortcode's page's rendered content**. That would have impressed Einstein.
The new and well defined rules are:
* `.Page.Content` from a shortcode will be empty. The related `.Page.Truncated` `.Page.Summary`, `.Page.WordCount`, `.Page.ReadingTime`, `.Page.Plain` and `.Page.PlainWords` will also have empty values.
* For _other pages_ (retrieved via `.Page.Site.GetPage`, `.Site.Pages` etc.) the `.Content` is there to use as you please as long as you don't have infinite content recursion in your shortcode/content setup. See below.
* `.Page.TableOfContents` is good to go (but does not support shortcodes in headlines; this is unchanged)
If you get into a situation of infinite recursion, the `.Content` will be empty. Run `hugo -v` for more information.
Fixes#4632Fixes#4653Fixes#4655
For the content from other pages in shortcodes there are some chicken and
egg dependencies that is hard to get around. But we can improve on this by preparing the pages in a certain order:
1. The headless bundles goes first. These are page typically page and image collections..
2. Leaf bundles
3. Regular single pages
4. Branch bundles
Fixes#4632
A sample config:
```toml
defaultContentLanguage = "en"
defaultContentLanguageInSubdir = true
[Languages]
[Languages.en]
weight = 10
title = "In English"
languageName = "English"
contentDir = "content/english"
[Languages.nn]
weight = 20
title = "På Norsk"
languageName = "Norsk"
contentDir = "content/norwegian"
```
The value of `contentDir` can be any valid path, even absolute path references. The only restriction is that the content dirs cannot overlap.
The content files will be assigned a language by
1. The placement: `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` will be read as Norwegian content.
2. The filename: `content/english/post/my-post.nn.md` will be read as Norwegian even if it lives in the English content folder.
The content directories will be merged into a big virtual filesystem with one simple rule: The most specific language file will win.
This means that if both `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` and `content/english/post/my-post.nn.md` exists, they will be considered duplicates and the version inside `content/norwegian` will win.
Note that translations will be automatically assigned by Hugo by the content file's relative placement, so `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` will be a translation of `content/english/post/my-post.md`.
If this does not work for you, you can connect the translations together by setting a `translationKey` in the content files' front matter.
Fixes#4523Fixes#4552Fixes#4553
This allows a `config.toml` (or `yaml`, ´yml`, or `json`) in the theme to set:
1) `params` (but cannot override params in project. Will also get its own "namespace", i.e. `{{ .Site.Params.mytheme.my_param }}` will be the same as `{{ .Site.Params.my_param }}` providing that the main project does not define a param with that key.
2) `menu` -- but cannot redefine/add menus in the project. Must create its own menus with its own identifiers.
3) `languages` -- only `params` and `menu`. Same rules as above.
4) **new** `outputFormats`
5) **new** `mediaTypes`
This should help with the "theme portability" issue and people having to copy and paste lots of setting into their projects.
Fixes#4490
As an example:
```html
{{ $pages := .Site.RegularPages | lang.Merge $frSite.RegularPages | lang.Merge $enSite.RegularPages }}
```
Will "fill in the gaps" in the current site with, from left to right, content from the French site, and lastly the English.
Fixes#4463
This commit makes it possible to extract the date from the content filename. Also, the filenames in these cases will make for very poor permalinks, so we will also use the remaining part as the page `slug` if that value is not set in front matter.
This should make it easier to move content from Jekyll to Hugo.
To enable, put this in your `config.toml`:
```toml
[frontmatter]
date = [":filename", ":default"]
```
This commit is also a spring cleaning of how the different dates are configured in Hugo. Hugo will check for dates following the configuration from left to right, starting with `:filename` etc.
So, if you want to use the `file modification time`, this can be a good configuration:
```toml
[frontmatter]
date = [ "date",":fileModTime", ":default"]
lastmod = ["lastmod" ,":fileModTime", ":default"]
```
The current `:default` values for the different dates are
```toml
[frontmatter]
date = ["date","publishDate", "lastmod"]
lastmod = ["lastmod", "date","publishDate"]
publishDate = ["publishDate", "date"]
expiryDate = ["expiryDate"]
```
The above will now be the same as:
```toml
[frontmatter]
date = [":default"]
lastmod = [":default"]
publishDate = [":default"]
expiryDate = [":default"]
```
Note:
* We have some built-in aliases to the above: lastmod => modified, publishDate => pubdate, published and expiryDate => unpublishdate.
* If you want a new configuration for, say, `date`, you can provide only that line, and the rest will be preserved.
* All the keywords to the right that does not start with a ":" maps to front matter parameters, and can be any date param (e.g. `myCustomDateParam`).
* The keywords to the left are the **4 predefined dates in Hugo**, i.e. they are constant values.
* The current "special date handlers" are `:fileModTime` and `:filename`. We will soon add `:git` to that list.

This commit adds a new config setting:
```toml
disableLanguages = ["fr"]
```
If this is a multilingual site:
* No site for the French language will be created
* French content pages will be ignored/not read
* The French language configuration (menus etc.) will also be ignored
This makes it possible to start translating new languages and turn it on when you're happy etc.
Fixes#4297Fixed#4329
This commit expands the Resource interface with 3 new methods:
* Name
* Title
* Params
All of these can be set in the Page front matter. `Name` will get its default value from the base filename, and is the value used in the ByPrefix and GetByPrefix lookup methods.
Fixes#4244
This commit also has some other nice side-effects:
* The layout logic is unified for all page types, which should make it less surprising
* Page.Render now supports all types
* The legacy "indexes" type is removed from the template lookup order. This is an undocumented type from early Hugo days. This means that having a template in, say, `/layouts/indexes/list.html` will no longer work.
* The theme override logic is improved. As an example, an `index.html` in theme will now wn over a `_default/list.html` in the project, which most will expect.
Fixes#3005Fixes#3245
We still do lowering of the param strings in some internal use of this, but the exported `GetParam` method is changed to a more sensible default.
This was used for the `disqus_title` etc. in the internal Disqus template, which was obviously not right.
If you really want to lowercase your params, do it with `.GetParam "myparam" | lower` or similar.
Fixes#4187
This commit is not the smallest in Hugo's history.
Some hightlights include:
* Page bundles (for complete articles, keeping images and content together etc.).
* Bundled images can be processed in as many versions/sizes as you need with the three methods `Resize`, `Fill` and `Fit`.
* Processed images are cached inside `resources/_gen/images` (default) in your project.
* Symbolic links (both files and dirs) are now allowed anywhere inside /content
* A new table based build summary
* The "Total in nn ms" now reports the total including the handling of the files inside /static. So if it now reports more than you're used to, it is just **more real** and probably faster than before (see below).
A site building benchmark run compared to `v0.31.1` shows that this should be slightly faster and use less memory:

Updates #3757
This commit adds support for multiple statDirs both on the global and language level.
A simple `config.toml` example:
```bash
staticDir = ["static1", "static2"]
[languages]
[languages.no]
staticDir = ["staticDir_override", "static_no"]
baseURL = "https://example.no"
languageName = "Norsk"
weight = 1
title = "På norsk"
[languages.en]
staticDir2 = "static_en"
baseURL = "https://example.com"
languageName = "English"
weight = 2
title = "In English"
```
In the above, with no theme used:
the English site will get its static files as a union of "static1", "static2" and "static_en". On file duplicates, the right-most version will win.
the Norwegian site will get its static files as a union of "staticDir_override" and "static_no".
This commit also concludes the Multihost support in #4027.
Fixes#36Closes#4027
Hugo already, in its server mode, support partial rebuilds. To put it simply: If you change `about.md`, only that content page is read and processed, then Hugo does some processing (taxonomies etc.) and the full site is rendered.
This commit covers the rendering part: We now only re-render the pages you work on, i.e. the last n pages you watched in the browser (which obviously also includes the page in the example above).
To be more specific: When you are running the hugo server in watch (aka. livereload) mode, and change a template or a content file, then we do a partial re-rendering of the following:
* The current content page (if it is a content change)
* The home page
* Up to the last 10 pages you visited on the site.
This should in most cases be enough, but if you navigate to something completely different, you may see stale content. Doing an edit will then refresh that page.
Note that this feature is enabled by default. To turn it off, run `hugo server --disableFastRender`.
Fixes#3962
See #1643
This makes live reloading behind a HTTPS proxy working, as in the example below using the service from https://ngrok.com:
```
hugo server -b https://ba6sdfe72.ngrok.io --appendPort=false --liveReloadPort=443 --navigateToChanged
```
Fixes#3882
This closes#98, even if this commit does not do full content text search.
We may revisit that problem in the future, but that deserves its own issue.
Fixes#98
This works for the `title` func and the other places where Hugo makes title case.
* AP style (new default)
* Chicago style
* Go style (what we have today)
Fixes#989
Note that even with this setting enabled, the aliases themselves are preserved on the pages.
The big motivation for this change is to be able to use the alias definitions to generate `.htaccess` or Netlify's `_redirect` files with server-side redirects.
