{{% note "Rendering Local Files" %}}
For information on creating shortcodes and templates that tap into Hugo's file-related feature set, see [Local File Templates](/templates/files/).
{{% /note %}}
The `.File` object contains the following fields:
.File.Path
: the original relative path of the page (e.g., `content/posts/foo.en.md`)
.File.LogicalName
: the name of the content file that represents a page (e.g., `foo.en.md`)
.File.TranslationBaseName
: the filename without extension or optional language identifier (e.g., `foo`)
.File.BaseFileName
: the filename without extension (e.g., `foo.en`)
.File.Ext
: the file extension of the content file (e.g., `md`); this can also be called using `.File.Extension` as well. Note that it is *only* the extension without `.`.
.File.Lang
: the language associated with the given file if Hugo's [Multilingual features][multilingual] are enabled (e.g., `en`)
.File.Dir
: given the path `content/posts/dir1/dir2/`, the relative directory path of the content file will be returned (e.g., `posts/dir1/dir2/`)
