Beautiful Hugo - An adaptation of the Beautiful Jekyll theme
Installation
$ mkdir themes
$ cd themes
$ git submodule add https://github.com/halogenica/beautifulhugo.git beautifulhugo
See the Hugo documentation for more information.
Extra Features
Responsive
This theme is designed to look great on both large-screen and small-screen (mobile) devices.
Syntax highlighting
This theme has support for either Hugo’s lightning fast Chroma, or both server side and client side highlighting. See the Hugo docs for more.
Chroma - New server side syntax highlighting
To enable Chroma, add the following to your site parameters:
pygmentsCodeFences = true
pygmentsUseClasses = true
Then, you can generate a different style by running:
hugo gen chromastyles --style=trac > static/css/syntax.css
Pygments - Old server side syntax highlighting
To use this feature install Pygments (pip install Pygments
) and add the following to your site parameters:
pygmentsStyle = "trac"
pygmentsUseClassic = true
Pygments is mostly compatable with the newer Chroma. It is slower but has some additional theme options. I recommend Chroma over Pygments. Pygments will use syntax.css
for highlighting, unless you also set the config pygmentsUseClasses = false
which will generate the style code directly in the HTML file.
Highlight.js - Client side syntax highlighting
[Params]
useHLJS = true
Client side highlighting does not require pygments to be installed. This will use highlight.min.css
instead of syntax.css
for highlighting (effectively disabling Chroma). Highlight.js has a wider range of support for languages and themes, and an alternative highlighting engine.
Disqus support
To use this feature, uncomment and fill out the disqusShortname
parameter in config.toml
.
Staticman support
Add Staticman configuration section in config.toml
or config.yaml
Sample config.toml
configuration
[Params.staticman]
api = "https://<API-ENDPOINT>/v3/entry/{GIT-HOST}/<USERNAME>/<REPOSITORY-BLOGNAME>/master/comments"
[Params.staticman.recaptcha]
sitekey: "6LeGeTgUAAAAAAqVrfTwox1kJQFdWl-mLzKasV0v"
secret: "hsGjWtWHR4HK4pT7cUsWTArJdZDxxE2pkdg/ArwCguqYQrhuubjj3RS9C5qa8xu4cx/Y9EwHwAMEeXPCZbLR9eW1K9LshissvNcYFfC/b8KKb4deH4V1+oqJEk/JcoK6jp6Rr2nZV4rjDP9M7nunC3WR5UGwMIYb8kKhur9pAic="
Note: The public API-ENDPOINT
https://staticman.net is currently hitting its API limit, so one may use other API instances to provide Staticman comment service.
The section [Params.staticman.recaptcha]
is optional. To add reCAPTCHA to your site, you have to replace the default values with your own ones (to be obtained from Google.) The site secret
has to be encrypted with
https://<API-ENDPOINT>/v3/encrypt/<SITE-SECRET>
You must also configure the staticman.yml
in you blog website.
comments:
allowedFields: ["name", "email", "website", "comment"]
branch : "master"
commitMessage : "New comment in {options.slug}"
path: "data/comments/{options.slug}"
filename : "comment-{@timestamp}"
format : "yaml"
moderation : true
requiredFields : ['name', 'email', 'comment']
transforms:
email : md5
generatedFields:
date:
type : "date"
options:
format : "iso8601"
reCaptcha:
enabled: true
siteKey: "6LeGeTgUAAAAAAqVrfTwox1kJQFdWl-mLzKasV0v"
secret: "hsGjWtWHR4HK4pT7cUsWTArJdZDxxE2pkdg/ArwCguqYQrhuubjj3RS9C5qa8xu4cx/Y9EwHwAMEeXPCZbLR9eW1K9LshissvNcYFfC/b8KKb4deH4V1+oqJEk/JcoK6jp6Rr2nZV4rjDP9M7nunC3WR5UGwMIYb8kKhur9pAic="
If you don’t have the section [Params.staticman]
in config.toml
, you won’t need the section reCaptcha
in staticman.yml
Google Analytics
To add Google Analytics, simply sign up to Google Analytics to obtain your Google Tracking ID, and add this tracking ID to the googleAnalytics
parameter in config.toml
.
Commit SHA on the footer
If the source of your site is in a Git repo, the SHA corresponding to the commit the site is built from can be shown on the footer. To do so, two site parameters commit
has to be defined in the config file config.toml
:
enableGitInfo = true
[Params]
commit = "https://github.com/<username>/<siterepo>/tree/"
See at vincenttam/vincenttam.gitlab.io for an example of how to add it to a continuous integration system.
Multilingual
To allow Beautiful Hugo to go multilingual, you need to define the languages
you want to use inside the languages
parameter on config.toml
file, also
redefining the content dir for each one. Check the i18n/
folder to see all
languages available.
[languages]
[languages.en]
contentDir = "content/en" # English
[languages.ja]
contentDir = "content/ja" # Japanese
[languages.br]
contentDir = "content/br" # Brazilian Portuguese
Now you just need to create a subdir within the content/
folder for each
language and just put stuff inside page/
and post/
regular directories.
content/ content/ content/
└── en/ └── br/ └── ja/
├── page/ ├── page/ ├── page/
└── post/ └── post/ └── post/
Extra shortcodes
There are two extra shortcodes provided (along with the customized figure shortcode):
Details
This simply adds the html5 detail attribute, supported on all modern browsers. Use it like this:
{{< details "This is the details title (click to expand)" >}}
This is the content (hidden until clicked).
{{< /details >}}
Split
This adds a two column side-by-side environment (will turn into 1 col for narrow devices):
{{< columns >}}
This is column 1.
{{< column >}}
This is column 2.
{{< endcolumn >}}
About
