By default, the `static/` directory in the site project is used for
|
|
all **static files** (e.g. stylesheets, JavaScript, images). The static files are served on the site root path (eg. if you have the file `static/image.png` you can access it using `http://{server-url}/image.png`, to include it in a document you can use ` )`.
|
|
|
|
Hugo can be configured to look into a different directory, or even
|
|
**multiple directories** for such static files by configuring the
|
|
`staticDir` parameter in the [site config][]. All the files in all the
|
|
static directories will form a union filesystem.
|
|
|
|
This union filesystem will be served from your site root. So a file
|
|
`<SITE PROJECT>/static/me.png` will be accessible as
|
|
`<MY_BASEURL>/me.png`.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of setting `staticDir` and `staticDir2` for a
|
|
multi-language site:
|
|
|
|
{{< code-toggle copy="false" file="config" >}}
|
|
staticDir = ["static1", "static2"]
|
|
|
|
[languages]
|
|
[languages.en]
|
|
staticDir2 = "static_en"
|
|
baseURL = "https://example.com"
|
|
languageName = "English"
|
|
weight = 2
|
|
title = "In English"
|
|
[languages.no]
|
|
staticDir = ["staticDir_override", "static_no"]
|
|
baseURL = "https://example.no"
|
|
languageName = "Norsk"
|
|
weight = 1
|
|
title = "På norsk"
|
|
{{</ code-toggle >}}
|
|
|
|
In the above, with no theme used:
|
|
|
|
- The English site will get its static files as a union of "static1",
|
|
"static2" and "static_en". On file duplicates, the right-most
|
|
version will win.
|
|
- The Norwegian site will get its static files as a union of
|
|
"staticDir_override" and "static_no".
|
|
|
|
Note 1
|
|
: The **2** (can be a number between 0 and 10) in `staticDir2` is
|
|
added to tell Hugo that you want to **add** this directory to the
|
|
global set of static directories defined using `staticDir`. Using
|
|
`staticDir` on the language level would replace the global value (as
|
|
can be seen in the Norwegian site case).
|
|
|
|
Note 2
|
|
: The example above is a [multihost setup][]. In a regular setup, all
|
|
the static directories will be available to all sites.
