Hugo website

How to create, lunch and configure a Hugo Website

Create a site

Easy once again, first install Hugo :

#On ArchLinux
pacman -S hugo

Now create site :

hugo new site name_of_site

BOOM website is created, easy.

Lunch

we want to see our page :

hugo server

Nothing will appear, you need a theme and add content

Add theme

Here we will use my theme or you can go to hugo website and search for one.

cd name_of_site
cd theme
git clone 

I explain on my theme github page how to use it.

Add content

Now it’s the final contdown, joke. It’s the final step.

hugo new content content/name_of_content

Adjust

Everything is set, you can now adjust how you want hugo.

You can change the way hugo create your content.

By default hugo creat content and put it in draft, it mean it’s a content in process so it will not show up until you change the draft = true to draft = false

When you use hugo command to creat a new content it read the file default.md inside the folder archetypes.

cd archetypes
vim default.md
  1 +++
  2 title = '{{ replace .File.ContentBaseName "-" " " | title }}'
  3 date = {{ .Date }}
  4 draft = false
  5 +++
"default.md" 5L, 103B

Changing draft = false means every time you will create a new content, it will be not be a draft.
