This information was previously scattered around in the forums and
mailing list. Add it to the official docs to make things easier for new
users.
Fixes#1167
Taxonomy Term pages have variables in addition to those on "node"
pages. Documenting these variables with all the other node variables
makes them easier to find.
Fixes: #1155
Added clarification for RSS doc page.
* a little formatting to make key words jump out
* emphasize that you can create your own
* add how to link to the feed in <head>
* add what .RSSlink does
* added point that a link to an RSS feed should be of type application/rss+xml
Fleshed out aliases section, loading the "redirect" keyword so that it's easier to find. Specifically added a "how aliases work" section.
Added Discourse to comments section.
Fleshed out themes/customizing, because it seems to be the source of a lot of questions on the forum.
Added a bunch of clarifying narrative, looking at the discussion forum for what people are asking about, and what I myself was confused about.
* clearer separation of advantage of each style - server or client side - at the top
* inconsistent newlines (different column widths) so I just removed them from obvious paragraphs
* added that the highlight shortcode is not used for the client-side javascripts
* Hugo is taking crap for Pygments being slow, so tried to emphasize that's it's in Pygment's lap. I got your back, Hugo.
* On client-side added prism example
* More clarity on how the css and js needs to be added to your templates
* Explained how the client-side scripts work
Added bit about how the 404.html page has to be set to load automatically - auto on Github but needs config on other web servers.
Also tweaked the text a little to emphasize it's a node type, and explain a little more about where the 404 template should be saved.
Related to @bjornerik 's answer in this discussion: http://discuss.gohugo.io/t/inserting-data-from-data-file-into-content-file-newbie-question/1002/3 ... I figured I'd make myself useful and add the reference to the index function, on the go template primer page.
Also, I moved the reference links to the bottom.
A general comment: as good as these docs are, the primer at this point makes some assumptions about audience knowledge, so some might find it lacking. Once I understand better, I might make some more clarifying edits.
A couple of edits to clarify that the layout/partials folder can contain arbitrarily-named subfolders, since I found the examples using ``{{ partial "post/tag/list" . }}`` confusing. Some folders are named specifically to work a certain way with hugo, but although the examples use key functional section and taxonomy names like post and tag, it does not matter what they are called. Hopefully this will help other newbs.
One of the first things that new users have to understand is the
difference between Hugo as a web server and Hugo as a web site
generator. Issue #852 asked for documentation to make that clear.
This patch updates the overview page with that information. It will
seem repetitive to users that understand the difference. Weigh that
against the needs of those that don't.
Reference #852
Adds step-by-step instructions for installing from both brew and
the official tarball. Not sure if steps for installing from source
belong here, so left them out.
Fixes#1005
The `hugo help` output as shown in http://gohugo.io/overview/usage/
was not yet updated for v0.13. Thanks to @alebaffa for the heads up!
Also:
- Clarify that, after using `hugo server`, the bare `hugo` command
need to be run before deployment.
- Add a section on running `hugo` as production web server,
and add links to two blog posts of two Hugo users sharing
their experience.
Partially fixes: #852 and #937
See https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases
What a pleasant surprise indeed!
How come I have never noticed them before?
And even `.deb` files are provided! How amazing!
Quote from @spf13: "I also think it's the better default
and should continue to be the case going forward."
Also mention the use of `hugo config` to check the current value
of `canonifyurls`, thanks to suggestion by @bep.
Fixes#802
- Clarify that Hugo may be built wherever Go is available;
- Add links to Git, Mercurial and Go;
- Unlist Bazaar: No libraries that Hugo depends on use it any more;
- Suggest the user to simply run `make` to build `hugo`
to get `hugo version` to display the commit hash.
Some variables are currently not documented and others are explained
across the document. So, I tried to pull an overview from the source.
Pls double check. I am not 100% sure, what the purpose of some variables
is or whether they are only relevant for previous versions. Thanks
* Add meta author, description and generator tags
* Add Hugo version beside the logo and in the footer
* Suggest the user to run `go get -u -v` to update dependencies
* Requires Go 1.3+ rather than Go 1.1+
* Improve rendering/formatting in some places
* Add trailing slash to URLs where appropriate
* GitHub redirects all http requests to https, update accordingly
Make Blackfriday's `HTML_SMARTYPANTS_FRACTIONS` option
user-configurable. Defaults to `true` as before. See
discussions at:
http://discuss.gohugo.io/t/any-way-to-disable-smart-fractions/328
Thanks to @bjornerik and @spf13 for laying the groundwork
making it easy to expose Blackfriday's underlying configurable
options.
canonifyUrls=true, RelPermalink and baseUrl with sub-path did not work.
This fixes that by adding a check for canonifyUrl=trues=true in RelPermalink().
So given
- baseUrl "http://somehost.com/sub/"
- the path "some-path/file.html"
For canonifyUrls=false RelPermalink() returns "/sub/some-path/file.html"
For canonifyUrls=true RelPermalink() returns "/some-path/file.html"
In the last case, the Url will be made absolute and clickable in a later step.
This commit also makes the menu urls defined in site config releative. To make them work with canonifying of urls, the context root is prepended if canonifying is turned off.
Fixes#519Fixes#711
- Add `safeUrl` template function (Fixes#347)
- Add TestSafeUrl() fashioned after @tatsushid great examples
- Disable `safeHtmlAttr` pending further discussions on its other
use cases because `safeUrl` is a cleaner solution to #347.
(There are also `safeJs` and `safeJsStr` that we could implement
if there are legitimate demands for them.)
- Rename `safeCSS` to `safeCss` (to follow the convention of `safeHtml`)
- Add/expand documentation on `safeHtml`, `safeCss` and `safeUrl`
Found on @spf13's Twitter. :-)
Prevent the testimonial dates from wrapping.
Also fix a few minor problems to get the home page
to validate as proper HTML5.
Extracted from https://www.freebsd.org/logo/logo-simple.svg
for temporary use until a future Font Awesome release adds
the `fa-freebsd` glyph (github/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome#1116) :-)
Make .fa `display: inline` to prevent unwanted line-wrapping
Also make the menu item "Issue & Help" line up with the others.
Hopefully making them more semantic and easier to read,
though it is raw HTML so it is slightly more work to maintain.
Also made minor revisions to some of the variable descriptions
to be more informative, e.g. `:monthname` in permalinks use
full English names ("January" etc.)
Added Version, CommitHash and BuildDate to hugolib/hugo.go and used it in build
Removed commitHash and buildDate from commands/version.go and used hugolib vars
Removed getDateFormat function from commands/version.go
Conflicts:
README.md
docs/content/templates/variables.md
* Add link to https://travis-ci.org/spf13/hugo
* Correct heading levels in docs/content/community/mailing-list.md
* Mention RFC 3339 as the `date` format set by `hugo new`
* Mention that `hugo new` does not add `draft = true` when the user
provides an archetype
* List short examples of TOML and YAML side by side
* Compact the Math template functions into a table
* Put some notes into a blockquote
Make the sidebar menu slightly wider so the arrow
does not get pushed to the next line.
Also remove `text-transform: capitalize;` so we can have,
e.g., "Table of Contents" rather than "Table Of Contents".
General revisions to (hopefully) make the documentation
easier to understand and more comprehensive.
Revise "Strange EOF error" troubleshooting page to say that
a fix is in place for the upcoming Hugo v0.13.
Also add more external links, and cute icons from Font Awesome.
While following the github pages tutorial I found some issues. These are
the commands I ran that worked.
Added site variables to the docs from the code.
- Change "livereload" and "live reload" to "LiveReload";
- Add a `$ ` prompt before example command lines
(not exhaustive, work in progress);
- Remove unnecessary whitespace from partials;
- Revise the blackfriday options table in overview/configuration.md
to make it narrower.
- Manually set the language for highlight.js where appropriate
- Rename "404" to "Custom 404 page", and remove incorrect reference
to "homepage"
- Credit the author of tutorials/github_pages_blog.md
(Similar notes are necessary for other contributed pages where
"I" am not spf13 to avoid reader confusion.)
- Add CSS for `kbd` and `table` etc. to css/style.css;
- etc.
With two entries of frequently encountered or obscured troubles so far:
- "Categories with accented characters" Unicode NFC/NFD mismatch
on Mac OS X (See #739)
- `hugo new` aborts with cryptic EOF error (See #776)
I was initially confused about how to use summaries. The only example code I found in the docs was on the page for list nodes, but that uses `Render "summary"`, which is for views, not an article summary. I thought a little example here might clarify the issue for future users.
It allows to use `where` template function like SQL `where` clause.
For example,
{{ range where .Data.Pages "Type" "!=" "post" }}
{{ .Content }}
{{ end }}
Now these operators are implemented:
=, ==, eq, !=, <>, ne, >=, ge, >, gt, <=, le, <, lt, in, not in
It also fixes `TestWhere` more readable
'where' template function used to accept only each element's struct
field name, method name and map key name as its second argument. This
extends it to accept dot chaining key like 'Params.foo.bar' as the
argument. It evaluates sub elements of each array elements and checks it
matches the third argument value.
Typical use case would be for filtering Pages by user defined front
matter value. For example, to filter pages which have 'Params.foo.bar'
and its value is 'baz', it is used like
{{ range where .Data.Pages "Params.foo.bar" "baz" }}
{{ .Content }}
{{ end }}
It ignores all leading and trailing dots so it can also be used with
".Params.foo.bar"
- Rejigged the weight of the extras/ content for the new crossreferences
page.
- Used the new {{</*…*/>}} format for documenting highlighting and to
prevent a warning about the missing `fig` shortcode.
- Correct some typos
- Add backticks and commas where necessary
- Use fenced code blocks specifying "bash" as the language
to avoid weird highlighting
- Place commas outside of quotation marks surroundingn codes
to avoid possible confusion
- Suggest users to use the discussion forum rather than the
mailing list
The whole article should maybe be rewriten to have a better content flow (maybe adding a table of content), to introduce both possible strategies. But at least, the technical steps are there!
This small function feels important enough to maybe deserve more than these three lines, but this will have to do for now.
This assumes that #652 gets merged.
This commit contains a restructuring and partial rewrite of the shortcode handling.
Prior to this commit rendering of the page content was mingled with handling of the shortcodes. This led to several oddities.
The new flow is:
1. Shortcodes are extracted from page and replaced with placeholders.
2. Shortcodes are processed and rendered
3. Page is processed
4. The placeholders are replaced with the rendered shortcodes
The handling of summaries is also made simpler by this.
This commit also introduces some other chenges:
1. distinction between shortcodes that need further processing and those who do not:
* `{{< >}}`: Typically raw HTML. Will not be processed.
* `{{% %}}`: Will be processed by the page's markup engine (Markdown or (infuture) Asciidoctor)
The above also involves a new shortcode-parser, with lexical scanning inspired by Rob Pike's talk called "Lexical Scanning in Go",
which should be easier to understand, give better error messages and perform better.
2. If you want to exclude a shortcode from being processed (for documentation etc.), the inner part of the shorcode must be commented out, i.e. `{{%/* movie 47238zzb */%}}`. See the updated shortcode section in the documentation for further examples.
The new parser supports nested shortcodes. This isn't new, but has two related design choices worth mentioning:
* The shortcodes will be rendered individually, so If both `{{< >}}` and `{{% %}}` are used in the nested hierarchy, one will be passed through the page's markdown processor, the other not.
* To avoid potential costly overhead of always looking far ahead for a possible closing tag, this implementation looks at the template itself, and is branded as a container with inner content if it contains a reference to `.Inner`
Fixes#565Fixes#480Fixes#461
And probably some others.
Update heading levels to confirm to the other tutorials. Create a similar front-matter using YAML, since I couldn't figure out how to get the menu:main:parent working as TOML.
`GroupBy` is modified to allow it to receive a method name argument for
example `Type` as its first argument. It is only allowed to call with
a method which takes no arguments and returns a result or a pair of
a result and an error.
The functions discussed at #443 are also added
- `ByPublishDate`: Order contents by `PublishDate` front matter variable
- `GroupByPublishDate(format, order)`: Group contents by `PublishDate`
front matter variable formatted in string like `GroupByDate`
- `GroupByParam(key, order)`: Group contents by `Param` front matter
variable specified by `key` argument
- `GroupByParamDate(key, format, order)`: Group contents by `Param`
front matter variable specified by `key` argument and formatted in
string like `GroupByDate`. It's effective against `time.Time` type
front matter variable
- Add backticks and commas where necessary
- Remove some trailing whitespace
- Add front matter example in TOML
- Fix typo in one of the tags in Showcase
- Add 多说 (Duoshuo) as an alternative to Disqus
- Use internal links (i.e. without gohugo.io) where possible
- Use a colon to set off an example
- Change "it's" to "its" where appropriate
- Use typographical (i.e. curly) apostrophe on the front page
where appropriate
- Capitalize "Github" as "GitHub"
The use of <!--more--> to set the breakpoint for the generated page summary is mentioned in a release note, but not in the doc itself.
Very useful - and it leaves the formatting in place.
- The config file can provide FootnoteAnchorPrefix, which will be used
by blackfriday when rendering to HTML. A value of `q:` has the effect
of making the anchor for a footnote `[^footie]` be `fn:q:footie`. The
default is `""`.
- The config file can provide FootnoteReturnLinkContents, which will be
used by blackfriday when rendering to HTML. A value of `^` has the
effect of making the return link be `^` instead of `[return]`.
updated installation page of documentation, and changed "Download" button on index.html to scroll to bottom where multiple installation options are featured
getting the scrolldown to work required removing the fixed positioning on #action and on the footer
Emphasizing to people (like me) who aren't familiar with Go that just because something's not mentioned in the Hugo docs doesn't mean it's not possible
Among the various changes, most instances of
{{ template "partials/FILE.html" . }}
were changed to
{{ partial "FILE.html" . }}
Also, in main.go, change "2013" to "2013-14".
The "@import url()" statement for loading Lato from Google Fonts
was ignored because "@import are not allowed after any valid statement
other than @charset and @import" according to the W3C CSS Validator.
Also remove the line for importing line-icons.css which no longer
exists.
I noticed that config file changes do not work with Live Reload feature. This may be "fixed" in future but for now adding a note might avoid confusion.
It took me a long time to realize that /layouts/TYPE or SECTION/LAYOUT.html was supposed to be a single URL and not two urls (/layouts/TYPE) or (SECTION/LAYOUT.html) ... putting in the hyphens I think makes it much more clear it's all one URL, and only the middle part is an either-or.
Two issues are addressed with this commit:
1. Some <pre> tags were inheriting the "Serif" font on Linux, causing
"code"-ish stuff to appear with proportional-width font instead of
monospaced-width font.
2. Font stack with "Helvetica Neue" ... has been changed to default to
sans-serif instead of "Serif", this produces a more consistent and
friendlier look on Windows in particular.
