|
|
The directory structure and templates provide the majority of the
|
|
configuration for a site. In fact, a config file isn't even needed for many
|
|
websites since the defaults follow commonly used patterns.
|
|
|
|
Hugo expects to find the config file in the root of the source directory and
|
|
will look there first for a `config.toml` file. If none is present, it will
|
|
then look for a `config.yaml` file, followed by a `config.json` file.
|
|
|
|
The config file is a site-wide config. The config file provides directions to
|
|
hugo on how to build the site as well as site-wide parameters and menus.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
The following is an example of a typical yaml config file:
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
baseurl: "http://yoursite.example.com/"
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
The following is an example of a toml config file with some of the default values.
|
|
Values under `[params]` will populate the `.Site.Params` variable for use in templates:
|
|
|
|
contentdir = "content"
|
|
layoutdir = "layouts"
|
|
publishdir = "public"
|
|
builddrafts = false
|
|
baseurl = "http://yoursite.example.com/"
|
|
canonifyurls = true
|
|
|
|
[taxonomies]
|
|
category = "categories"
|
|
tag = "tags"
|
|
|
|
[params]
|
|
description = "Tesla's Awesome Hugo Site"
|
|
author = "Nikola Tesla"
|
|
|
|
Here is a yaml configuration file which sets a few more options:
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
baseurl: "http://yoursite.example.com/"
|
|
title: "Yoyodyne Widget Blogging"
|
|
footnotereturnlinkcontents: "↩"
|
|
permalinks:
|
|
post: /:year/:month/:title/
|
|
params:
|
|
Subtitle: "Spinning the cogs in the widgets"
|
|
AuthorName: "John Doe"
|
|
GitHubUser: "spf13"
|
|
ListOfFoo:
|
|
- "foo1"
|
|
- "foo2"
|
|
SidebarRecentLimit: 5
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
## Configuration variables
|
|
|
|
Following is a list of Hugo-defined variables that you can configure and their current default values:
|

## Ignore files on build
|
|
|
|
The following inside `config.toml` will ignore files ending with `.foo` and `.boo` when building with `hugo`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ignoreFiles = [ "\\.foo$", "\\.boo$" ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above is a list of Regular Expressions, but note the escaping of the `\` to make TOML happy.

## Configure Blackfriday rendering
|
|
|
|
[Blackfriday](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday) is the [Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) rendering engine used in Hugo. The Blackfriday configuration in Hugo is mostly a set of sane defaults that should fit most use cases.
|
|
|
|
But Hugo does expose some options---as listed in the table below, matched with the corresponding flag in the Blackfriday source ([html.go](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday/blob/master/html.go) and [markdown.go](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday/blob/master/markdown.go)):
|
|
|
|

|

<strong>Caveat:</strong> Even with <code>fractions = false</code>,
|
|
Blackfriday would still convert 1/2, 1/4 and 3/4 to ½ (<code>&frac12;</code>),

¼ (<code>&frac14;</code>) and ¾ (<code>&frac34;</code>) respectively,

**Note** that these flags must be grouped under the `blackfriday` key and can be set on **both site and page level**. If set on page, it will override the site setting. Example:
