Contributing to Hugo

All contributions to Hugo are welcome. Whether you want to scratch an itch, or simply contribute to the project, feel free to pick something from the roadmap or contact spf13 about what may make sense to do next.

You should fork the project and make your changes. We encourage pull requests to discuss code changes.

When you're ready to create a pull request, be sure to:

Have test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do it, please ask in your pull request.
Run go fmt
Squash your commits into a single commit. git rebase -i. It's okay to force update your pull request.
Make sure go test ./... passes, and go build completes. Our Travis CI loop will catch most things that are missing. The exception: Windows. We run on Windows from time to time, but if you have access, please check on a Windows machine too.

Building from source

Clone locally (for contributors):

cd hugo
go get

Because Go expects all of your libraries to be found in either $GOROOT or $GOPATH, it's helpful to symlink the project to one of the following paths:

ln -s /path/to/your/hugo $GOPATH/src/github.com/spf13/hugo
ln -s /path/to/your/hugo $GOROOT/src/pkg/github.com/spf13/hugo

Running Hugo

cd /path/to/hugo
go install github.com/spf13/hugo/hugo
go run main.go

Building Hugo

cd /path/to/hugo
go build -o hugo main.go
mv hugo /usr/local/bin/
