## hugo mod init
Initialize this project as a Hugo Module.
### Synopsis
Initialize this project as a Hugo Module.
It will try to guess the module path, but you may help by passing it as an argument, e.g:
hugo mod init github.com/gohugoio/testshortcodes
Note that Hugo Modules supports multi-module projects, so you can initialize a Hugo Module
inside a subfolder on GitHub, as one example.
```
hugo mod init [flags] [args]
```
### Options
```
-b, --baseURL string hostname (and path) to the root, e.g. https://spf13.com/
--cacheDir string filesystem path to cache directory
-c, --contentDir string filesystem path to content directory
-h, --help help for init
-t, --theme strings themes to use (located in /themes/THEMENAME/)
```
