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.

Trouble: hugo new
aborts with cryptic EOF error
I'm running into an issue where I cannot get archetypes working, when running hugo new showcase/test.md
, for example, I see an EOF
error thrown by Hugo.
I have set up this test repository to show exactly what I've done, but it is essentially a vanilla installation of Hugo. https://github.com/polds/hugo-archetypes-test
When in that repository, using Hugo v0.12 to run hugo new -v showcase/test.md
, I see the following output:
INFO: 2015/01/04 Using config file: /private/tmp/test/config.toml
INFO: 2015/01/04 attempting to create showcase/test.md of showcase
INFO: 2015/01/04 curpath: /private/tmp/test/archetypes/showcase.md
ERROR: 2015/01/04 EOF
Is there something that I am blatantly missing?
Solution
Thank you for reporting this issue. The solution is to add a final newline (i.e. EOL) to the end of your default.md archetype file of your theme. More discussions happened on the forum here:
- http://discuss.gohugo.io/t/archetypes-not-properly-working-in-0-12/544
- http://discuss.gohugo.io/t/eol-f-in-archetype-files/554
Due to popular demand, Hugo's parser has been enhanced to accommodate archetype files without final EOL, thanks to the great work by @tatsushid, in the upcoming v0.13 release,
Until then, for us running the stable v0.12 release, please remember to add the final EOL diligently.
