| ReadingTime | Returns the estimated reading time, in minutes, for the given page. |
|
The estimated reading time is calculated by dividing the number of words in the content by the reading speed.
By default, Hugo assumes a reading speed of 212 words per minute. For CJK languages, it assumes 500 words per minute.
{{ printf "Estimated reading time: %d minutes" .ReadingTime }}
Reading speed varies by language. Create language-specific estimated reading times on your multilingual site using site parameters.
{{< code-toggle file=hugo >}} [languages] [languages.de] contentDir = 'content/de' languageCode = 'de-DE' languageName = 'Deutsch' weight = 2 [languages.de.params] reading_speed = 179 [languages.en] contentDir = 'content/en' languageCode = 'en-US' languageName = 'English' weight = 1 [languages.en.params] reading_speed = 228 {{< /code-toggle >}}
Then in your template:
{{ $readingTime := div (float .WordCount) .Site.Params.reading_speed }}
{{ $readingTime = math.Ceil $readingTime }}
We cast the .WordCount to a float to obtain a float when we divide by the reading speed. Then round up to the nearest integer.
