resources.GetRemote | Returns a remote resource from the given URL, or nil if none found. |
|
true |
{{ $url := "https://example.org/images/a.jpg" }}
{{ with resources.GetRemote $url }}
{{ with .Err }}
{{ errorf "%s" . }}
{{ else }}
<img src="{{ .RelPermalink }}" width="{{ .Width }}" height="{{ .Height }}" alt="">
{{ end }}
{{ else }}
{{ errorf "Unable to get remote resource %q" $url }}
{{ end }}
Options
The resources.GetRemote
function takes an optional map of options.
{{ $url := "https://example.org/api" }}
{{ $opts := dict
"headers" (dict "Authorization" "Bearer abcd")
}}
{{ $resource := resources.GetRemote $url $opts }}
If you need multiple values for the same header key, use a slice:
{{ $url := "https://example.org/api" }}
{{ $opts := dict
"headers" (dict "X-List" (slice "a" "b" "c"))
}}
{{ $resource := resources.GetRemote $url $opts }}
You can also change the request method and set the request body:
{{ $url := "https://example.org/api" }}
{{ $opts := dict
"method" "post"
"body" `{"complete": true}`
"headers" (dict "Content-Type" "application/json")
}}
{{ $resource := resources.GetRemote $url $opts }}
Remote data
When retrieving remote data, use the transform.Unmarshal
function to unmarshal the response.
{{ $data := "" }}
{{ $url := "https://example.org/books.json" }}
{{ with resources.GetRemote $url }}
{{ with .Err }}
{{ errorf "%s" . }}
{{ else }}
{{ $data = . | transform.Unmarshal }}
{{ end }}
{{ else }}
{{ errorf "Unable to get remote resource %q" $url }}
{{ end }}
Error handling
The Err
method on a resource returned by the resources.GetRemote
function returns an error message if the HTTP request fails, else nil. If you do not handle the error yourself, Hugo will fail the build.
{{ $url := "https://broken-example.org/images/a.jpg" }}
{{ with resources.GetRemote $url }}
{{ with .Err }}
{{ errorf "%s" . }}
{{ else }}
<img src="{{ .RelPermalink }}" width="{{ .Width }}" height="{{ .Height }}" alt="">
{{ end }}
{{ else }}
{{ errorf "Unable to get remote resource %q" $url }}
{{ end }}
To log an error as a warning instead of an error:
{{ $url := "https://broken-example.org/images/a.jpg" }}
{{ with resources.GetRemote $url }}
{{ with .Err }}
{{ warnf "%s" . }}
{{ else }}
<img src="{{ .RelPermalink }}" width="{{ .Width }}" height="{{ .Height }}" alt="">
{{ end }}
{{ else }}
{{ errorf "Unable to get remote resource %q" $url }}
{{ end }}
HTTP response
The Data
method on a resource returned by the resources.GetRemote
function returns information from the HTTP response.
{{ $url := "https://example.org/images/a.jpg" }}
{{ with resources.GetRemote $url }}
{{ with .Err }}
{{ errorf "%s" . }}
{{ else }}
{{ with .Data }}
{{ .ContentLength }} → 42764
{{ .ContentType }} → image/jpeg
{{ .Status }} → 200 OK
{{ .StatusCode }} → 200
{{ .TransferEncoding }} → []
{{ end }}
{{ end }}
{{ else }}
{{ errorf "Unable to get remote resource %q" $url }}
{{ end }}
- ContentLength
- (
int
) The content length in bytes. - ContentType
- (
string
) The content type. - Status
- (
string
) The HTTP status text. - StatusCode
- (
int
) The HTTP status code. - TransferEncoding
- (
string
) The transfer encoding.
Caching
Resources returned from resources.GetRemote
are cached to disk. See configure file caches for details.
By default, Hugo derives the cache key from the arguments passed to the function, the URL and the options map, if any.
Override the cache key by setting a key
in the options map. Use this approach to have more control over how often Hugo fetches a remote resource.
{{ $url := "https://example.org/images/a.jpg" }}
{{ $cacheKey := print $url (now.Format "2006-01-02") }}
{{ $resource := resource.GetRemote $url (dict "key" $cacheKey) }}
