Hugo Runner

Hugo

Overview

Hugo converts source files from content formats to output formats. In production it only creates files. For development it has an integrated webserver.

The conversion from content to output is controlled by configuration and template files.

The docs are at https://gohugo.io/documentation/

Preparation Before Run

• If a specific Hugo version is required use hvm to install it in the working directory; this also applies to version keywords like latest, oldest, minimal

  latest is supported by hvm. If the user requiers oldest or minimal, look into theme.toml under module.hugoVersion.min:

  • hvm use latest - Use the latest Hugo version
  • hvm use 0.141.0 - Use a specific version if minimal version is 0.141.0

Usage

Run the webserver for testing changes.

Run the Webserver

Run the webserver on Hugo's on a non-default port of 3131.

cd <directory-of-content-directory> && hugo server -p 3131

To run Hugo on the default port 1313 (which is often blocked)

cd <directory-of-content-directory> && hugo server

Parameters Help

If you need a full understanding of all available parameters

hugo help

Usage Notes

• Always run Hugo from inside the working directory
• Access the site at http://localhost:3131
• The files that Hugo generates and afterwards serves are stored in public of the working directory
• Source Markdown files of content/* can be accessed as their output representation by http://localhost:3131/* or public/*
• Press Ctrl+C to stop the server
• Watch stdout/stderr for build warnings and errors
