When we find a template that requires a base template, we should also look for that base template in the current theme. Fixes #1215.

In addition to [Go templates](/templates/go-templates) and Amber[^needs-doc] templates, Hugo supports the powerful Ace templates.
|
|
|
|
For template documentation, follow the links from the [Ace project](https://github.com/yosssi/ace).
|
|
|
|
* Ace templates must be named with the ace-suffix, e.g. `list.ace`
|
|
* It's possible to use both Go templates and Ace templates side-by-side, and include one into the other
|
|
* Full Go template syntax support, including all the useful helper funcs
|
|
* Partials can be included both with the Ace and the Go template syntax:
|
|
* `= include partials/foo.html .`[^ace-theme]
|
|
* `{{ partial "foo" . }}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
One noticeable difference between Ace and the others is the inheritance support through [base and inner templates](https://github.com/yosssi/ace/tree/master/examples/base_inner_template).
|
|
|
|
In Hugo the base template will be chosen in the following order:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
1. <current-path>/<template-name>-baseof.ace, e.g. list-baseof.ace
|
|
2. <current-path>/baseof.ace
|
|
3. _default/<template-name>-baseof.ace, e.g. list-baseof.ace.
|
|
4. _default/baseof.ace
|
|
5. <themedir>/layouts/_default/<template-name>-baseof.ace
|
|
6. <themedir>/layouts/_default/baseof.ace
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the above, `current-path` is where the corresponding inner template lives, `list.ace`, `single.ace`, `index.ace` ...
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
.:
|
|
index.ace
|
|
|
|
./blog:
|
|
single.ace
|
|
baseof.ace
|
|
|
|
./_default:
|
|
baseof.ace list.ace single.ace single-baseof.ace
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Some examples for the layout files above:
|
|
|
|
* Home page: `./index.ace` + `./_default/baseof.ace`
|
|
* Single page in the `blog` section: `./blog/single.ace` + `./blog/baseof.ace`
|
|
* Single page in another section: `./_default/single.ace` + `./_default/single-baseof.ace`
|
|
* Taxonomy page in any section: `./_default/list.ace` + `./_default/baseof.ace`
|
|
|
|
**Note:** In most cases one `baseof.ace` in `_default` will suffice.
|
|
**Note:** An Ace template without a reference to a base section, e.g. `= content`, will be handled as a standalone template.

[^ace-theme]: Note that the `html` suffix is needed, even if the filename is suffixed `ace`. This does not work from inside a theme, see [issue 763](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/issues/763).
|
|
[^needs-doc]: Needs documentation! Contribution welcomed, see [issue 1064](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/issues/1064).
