There are some breaking changes in this commit, see #11455.
Closes#11455Closes#11549
This fixes a set of bugs (see issue list) and it is also paying some technical debt accumulated over the years. We now build with Staticcheck enabled in the CI build.
The performance should be about the same as before for regular sized Hugo sites, but it should perform and scale much better to larger data sets, as objects that uses lots of memory (e.g. rendered Markdown, big JSON files read into maps with transform.Unmarshal etc.) will now get automatically garbage collected if needed. Performance on partial rebuilds when running the server in fast render mode should be the same, but the change detection should be much more accurate.
A list of the notable new features:
* A new dependency tracker that covers (almost) all of Hugo's API and is used to do fine grained partial rebuilds when running the server.
* A new and simpler tree document store which allows fast lookups and prefix-walking in all dimensions (e.g. language) concurrently.
* You can now configure an upper memory limit allowing for much larger data sets and/or running on lower specced PCs.
We have lifted the "no resources in sub folders" restriction for branch bundles (e.g. sections).
Memory Limit
* Hugos will, by default, set aside a quarter of the total system memory, but you can set this via the OS environment variable HUGO_MEMORYLIMIT (in gigabytes). This is backed by a partitioned LRU cache used throughout Hugo. A cache that gets dynamically resized in low memory situations, allowing Go's Garbage Collector to free the memory.
New Dependency Tracker: Hugo has had a rule based coarse grained approach to server rebuilds that has worked mostly pretty well, but there have been some surprises (e.g. stale content). This is now revamped with a new dependency tracker that can quickly calculate the delta given a changed resource (e.g. a content file, template, JS file etc.). This handles transitive relations, e.g. $page -> js.Build -> JS import, or $page1.Content -> render hook -> site.GetPage -> $page2.Title, or $page1.Content -> shortcode -> partial -> site.RegularPages -> $page2.Content -> shortcode ..., and should also handle changes to aggregated values (e.g. site.Lastmod) effectively.
This covers all of Hugo's API with 2 known exceptions (a list that may not be fully exhaustive):
Changes to files loaded with template func os.ReadFile may not be handled correctly. We recommend loading resources with resources.Get
Changes to Hugo objects (e.g. Page) passed in the template context to lang.Translate may not be detected correctly. We recommend having simple i18n templates without too much data context passed in other than simple types such as strings and numbers.
Note that the cachebuster configuration (when A changes then rebuild B) works well with the above, but we recommend that you revise that configuration, as it in most situations should not be needed. One example where it is still needed is with TailwindCSS and using changes to hugo_stats.json to trigger new CSS rebuilds.
Document Store: Previously, a little simplified, we split the document store (where we store pages and resources) in a tree per language. This worked pretty well, but the structure made some operations harder than they needed to be. We have now restructured it into one Radix tree for all languages. Internally the language is considered to be a dimension of that tree, and the tree can be viewed in all dimensions concurrently. This makes some operations re. language simpler (e.g. finding translations is just a slice range), but the idea is that it should also be relatively inexpensive to add more dimensions if needed (e.g. role).

Primary motivation is documentation, but it will also hopefully simplify the code.
Also,
* Lower case the default output format names; this is in line with the custom ones (map keys) and how
it's treated all the places. This avoids doing `stringds.EqualFold` everywhere.
Closes#10896Closes#10620
It has been deprecated for a long time, its v1 version is not maintained anymore, and there are many known issues. Goldmark should be
a mature replacement by now.
Closes#9934
And make both .Resources and resources implement it.
This gets us 2 new methods/functions, so you can now also do:
* .Resources.Get
* resources.ByType
Note that GetRemote is not covered by this interface, as that is only available as a global template function.
Fixes#8653
Before a robots.txt is created in every Site. So in public/robots.txt if there are no languages (was correct). But if there are multiple languages in every language directory, too (was wrong). If defaultContentLanguageInSubdir is true, no language is created into the root directory, so no robots.txt is in the root directory (was wrong). If multihosts are configured for each language, that is the only case where one robots.txt must be created in each language directory (was correct).
I've changed the behaviour, that only in the multihost case the robots.txt is created in the language directories. In any other case it is created in public/robots.txt. I've also added tests that files are not created in the wrong directories.
Fixes#5160

And we have taken great measures to limit potential site breakage:
* For `disableKinds` and `outputs` we try to map from old to new values if possible, if not we print an ERROR that can be toggled off if not relevant.
* The layout lookup is mostly compatible with more options for the new `term` kind.
That leaves:
* Where queries in site.Pages using taxonomy/taxonomyTerm Kind values as filter.
* Other places where these kind value are used in the templates (classes etc.)
Fixes#6911Fixes#7395
This commit also
* revises the change detection for templates used by content files in server mode.
* Adds a Page.RenderString method
Fixes#6545Fixes#4663Closes#6043
This commit adds the fast and CommonMark compliant Goldmark as the new default markdown handler in Hugo.
If you want to continue using BlackFriday as the default for md/markdown extensions, you can use this configuration:
```toml
[markup]
defaultMarkdownHandler="blackfriday"
```
Fixes#5963Fixes#1778Fixes#6355
This is preparation for #6041.
For historic reasons, the code for bulding the section tree and the taxonomies were very much separate.
This works, but makes it hard to extend, maintain, and possibly not so fast as it could be.
This simplification also introduces 3 slightly breaking changes, which I suspect most people will be pleased about. See referenced issues:
This commit also switches the radix tree dependency to a mutable implementation: github.com/armon/go-radix.
Fixes#6154Fixes#6153Fixes#6152
This is in line with how it behaved before, but it was lifted a little for the project mount for Hugo Modules,
but that could create hard-to-detect loops.
This commit implements Hugo Modules.
This is a broad subject, but some keywords include:
* A new `module` configuration section where you can import almost anything. You can configure both your own file mounts nd the file mounts of the modules you import. This is the new recommended way of configuring what you earlier put in `configDir`, `staticDir` etc. And it also allows you to mount folders in non-Hugo-projects, e.g. the `SCSS` folder in the Bootstrap GitHub project.
* A module consists of a set of mounts to the standard 7 component types in Hugo: `static`, `content`, `layouts`, `data`, `assets`, `i18n`, and `archetypes`. Yes, Theme Components can now include content, which should be very useful, especially in bigger multilingual projects.
* Modules not in your local file cache will be downloaded automatically and even "hot replaced" while the server is running.
* Hugo Modules supports and encourages semver versioned modules, and uses the minimal version selection algorithm to resolve versions.
* A new set of CLI commands are provided to manage all of this: `hugo mod init`, `hugo mod get`, `hugo mod graph`, `hugo mod tidy`, and `hugo mod vendor`.
All of the above is backed by Go Modules.

The main motivation of this commit is to add a `page.Page` interface to replace the very file-oriented `hugolib.Page` struct.
This is all a preparation step for issue #5074, "pages from other data sources".
But this also fixes a set of annoying limitations, especially related to custom output formats, and shortcodes.
Most notable changes:
* The inner content of shortcodes using the `{{%` as the outer-most delimiter will now be sent to the content renderer, e.g. Blackfriday.
This means that any markdown will partake in the global ToC and footnote context etc.
* The Custom Output formats are now "fully virtualized". This removes many of the current limitations.
* The taxonomy list type now has a reference to the `Page` object.
This improves the taxonomy template `.Title` situation and make common template constructs much simpler.

This commit adds support for a configuration directory (default `config`). The different pieces in this puzzle are:
* A new `--environment` (or `-e`) flag. This can also be set with the `HUGO_ENVIRONMENT` OS environment variable. The value for `environment` defaults to `production` when running `hugo` and `development` when running `hugo server`. You can set it to any value you want (e.g. `hugo server -e "Sensible Environment"`), but as it is used to load configuration from the file system, the letter case may be important. You can get this value in your templates with `{{ hugo.Environment }}`.
* A new `--configDir` flag (defaults to `config` below your project). This can also be set with `HUGO_CONFIGDIR` OS environment variable.
If the `configDir` exists, the configuration files will be read and merged on top of each other from left to right; the right-most value will win on duplicates.
Given the example tree below:
If `environment` is `production`, the left-most `config.toml` would be the one directly below the project (this can now be omitted if you want), and then `_default/config.toml` and finally `production/config.toml`. And since these will be merged, you can just provide the environment specific configuration setting in you production config, e.g. `enableGitInfo = true`. The order within the directories will be lexical (`config.toml` and then `params.toml`).
```bash
config
├── _default
│ ├── config.toml
│ ├── languages.toml
│ ├── menus
│ │ ├── menus.en.toml
│ │ └── menus.zh.toml
│ └── params.toml
├── development
│ └── params.toml
└── production
├── config.toml
└── params.toml
```
Some configuration maps support the language code in the filename (e.g. `menus.en.toml`): `menus` (`menu` also works) and `params`.
Also note that the only folders with "a meaning" in the above listing is the top level directories below `config`. The `menus` sub folder is just added for better organization.
We use `TOML` in the example above, but Hugo also supports `JSON` and `YAML` as configuration formats. These can be mixed.
Fixes#5422
Introduce new page position variables in order to fix the ordering issue
of `.Next` and `.Prev` while also allowing an upgrade path via
deprecation.
`.NextInSection` becomes `.NextPageInSection`.
`.PrevInSection` becomes `.PrevPageInSection`.
`.Next` becomes a function returning `.PrevPage`.
`.Prev` becomes a function returning `.NextPage`.
Fixes#1061
This commit is a follow up to a recent overhaul of the GetPage/ref/relref implemenation.
The most important change in this commit is the update to `.Site.GetPage`:
* To reduce the amount of breakage in the wild to its minimum, I have reworked .Site.GetPage with some rules:
* We cannot support more than 2 arguments, i.e. .Site.GetPage "page" "posts" "mypage.md" will now throw an error. I think this is the most uncommon syntax and should be OK. It is an easy fix to change the above to .Site.GetPage "/posts/mypage.md" or similar.
* .Site.GetPage "home", .Site.GetPage "home" "" and .Site.GetPage "home" "/" will give you the home page. This means that if you have page in root with the name home.md you need to do .Site.GetPage "/home.md" or similar
This commit also fixes some multilingual issues, most notable it is now possible to do cross-language ref/relref lookups by prepending the language code to the path, e.g. `/jp/posts/mypage.md`.
This commit also reverts the site building tests related to this to "Hugo 0.44 state", to get better control of the changes made.
Closes#4147Closes#4727Closes#4728Closes#4728Closes#4726Closes#4652
This commit unifies the core internal page index for all page kinds.
This enables the `ref` and `relref` shortcodes to support all pages kinds, and adds a new page-relative `.GetPage` method with simplified signature.

Before this commit, you would have to use page bundles to do image processing etc. in Hugo.
This commit adds
* A new `/assets` top-level project or theme dir (configurable via `assetDir`)
* A new template func, `resources.Get` which can be used to "get a resource" that can be further processed.
This means that you can now do this in your templates (or shortcodes):
```bash
{{ $sunset := (resources.Get "images/sunset.jpg").Fill "300x200" }}
```
This also adds a new `extended` build tag that enables powerful SCSS/SASS support with source maps. To compile this from source, you will also need a C compiler installed:
```
HUGO_BUILD_TAGS=extended mage install
```
Note that you can use output of the SCSS processing later in a non-SCSSS-enabled Hugo.
The `SCSS` processor is a _Resource transformation step_ and it can be chained with the many others in a pipeline:
```bash
{{ $css := resources.Get "styles.scss" | resources.ToCSS | resources.PostCSS | resources.Minify | resources.Fingerprint }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ $styles.RelPermalink }}" integrity="{{ $styles.Data.Digest }}" media="screen">
```
The transformation funcs above have aliases, so it can be shortened to:
```bash
{{ $css := resources.Get "styles.scss" | toCSS | postCSS | minify | fingerprint }}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ $styles.RelPermalink }}" integrity="{{ $styles.Data.Digest }}" media="screen">
```
A quick tip would be to avoid the fingerprinting part, and possibly also the not-superfast `postCSS` when you're doing development, as it allows Hugo to be smarter about the rebuilding.
Documentation will follow, but have a look at the demo repo in https://github.com/bep/hugo-sass-test
New functions to create `Resource` objects:
* `resources.Get` (see above)
* `resources.FromString`: Create a Resource from a string.
New `Resource` transformation funcs:
* `resources.ToCSS`: Compile `SCSS` or `SASS` into `CSS`.
* `resources.PostCSS`: Process your CSS with PostCSS. Config file support (project or theme or passed as an option).
* `resources.Minify`: Currently supports `css`, `js`, `json`, `html`, `svg`, `xml`.
* `resources.Fingerprint`: Creates a fingerprinted version of the given Resource with Subresource Integrity..
* `resources.Concat`: Concatenates a list of Resource objects. Think of this as a poor man's bundler.
* `resources.ExecuteAsTemplate`: Parses and executes the given Resource and data context (e.g. .Site) as a Go template.

This commit adds support for theme composition and inheritance in Hugo.
With this, it helps thinking about a theme as a set of ordered components:
```toml
theme = ["my-shortcodes", "base-theme", "hyde"]
```
The theme definition example above in `config.toml` creates a theme with the 3 components with presedence from left to right.
So, Hugo will, for any given file, data entry etc., look first in the project, and then in `my-shortcode`, `base-theme` and lastly `hyde`.
Hugo uses two different algorithms to merge the filesystems, depending on the file type:
* For `i18n` and `data` files, Hugo merges deeply using the translation id and data key inside the files.
* For `static`, `layouts` (templates) and `archetypes` files, these are merged on file level. So the left-most file will be chosen.
The name used in the `theme` definition above must match a folder in `/your-site/themes`, e.g. `/your-site/themes/my-shortcodes`. There are plans to improve on this and get a URL scheme so this can be resolved automatically.
Also note that a component that is part of a theme can have its own configuration file, e.g. `config.toml`. There are currently some restrictions to what a theme component can configure:
* `params` (global and per language)
* `menu` (global and per language)
* `outputformats` and `mediatypes`
The same rules apply here: The left-most param/menu etc. with the same ID will win. There are some hidden and experimental namespace support in the above, which we will work to improve in the future, but theme authors are encouraged to create their own namespaces to avoid naming conflicts.
A final note: Themes/components can also have a `theme` definition in their `config.toml` and similar, which is the "inheritance" part of this commit's title. This is currently not supported by the Hugo theme site. We will have to wait for some "auto dependency" feature to be implemented for that to happen, but this can be a powerful feature if you want to create your own theme-variant based on others.
Fixes#4460Fixes#4450
There have been one report of a site with truncated `.Content` after the Hugo `0.40.1` release.
This commit fixes this so that race should not be possible anymore. It also adds a stress test with focus on content rendering and multiple output formats.
Fixes#4706
This resolves some surprising behaviour when reading other pages' content from shortcodes. Before this commit, that behaviour was undefined. Note that this has never been an issue from regular templates.
It will still not be possible to get **the current shortcode's page's rendered content**. That would have impressed Einstein.
The new and well defined rules are:
* `.Page.Content` from a shortcode will be empty. The related `.Page.Truncated` `.Page.Summary`, `.Page.WordCount`, `.Page.ReadingTime`, `.Page.Plain` and `.Page.PlainWords` will also have empty values.
* For _other pages_ (retrieved via `.Page.Site.GetPage`, `.Site.Pages` etc.) the `.Content` is there to use as you please as long as you don't have infinite content recursion in your shortcode/content setup. See below.
* `.Page.TableOfContents` is good to go (but does not support shortcodes in headlines; this is unchanged)
If you get into a situation of infinite recursion, the `.Content` will be empty. Run `hugo -v` for more information.
Fixes#4632Fixes#4653Fixes#4655
A sample config:
```toml
defaultContentLanguage = "en"
defaultContentLanguageInSubdir = true
[Languages]
[Languages.en]
weight = 10
title = "In English"
languageName = "English"
contentDir = "content/english"
[Languages.nn]
weight = 20
title = "På Norsk"
languageName = "Norsk"
contentDir = "content/norwegian"
```
The value of `contentDir` can be any valid path, even absolute path references. The only restriction is that the content dirs cannot overlap.
The content files will be assigned a language by
1. The placement: `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` will be read as Norwegian content.
2. The filename: `content/english/post/my-post.nn.md` will be read as Norwegian even if it lives in the English content folder.
The content directories will be merged into a big virtual filesystem with one simple rule: The most specific language file will win.
This means that if both `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` and `content/english/post/my-post.nn.md` exists, they will be considered duplicates and the version inside `content/norwegian` will win.
Note that translations will be automatically assigned by Hugo by the content file's relative placement, so `content/norwegian/post/my-post.md` will be a translation of `content/english/post/my-post.md`.
If this does not work for you, you can connect the translations together by setting a `translationKey` in the content files' front matter.
Fixes#4523Fixes#4552Fixes#4553
As an example:
```html
{{ $pages := .Site.RegularPages | lang.Merge $frSite.RegularPages | lang.Merge $enSite.RegularPages }}
```
Will "fill in the gaps" in the current site with, from left to right, content from the French site, and lastly the English.
Fixes#4463
This fixes some issues with language params handling by separating params from configuration values per language.
This means that you can now do this:
```toml
[languages]
[languages.en]
languageName = "English"
weight = 1
title = "My Cool Site"
[languages.en.params]
myParam = "Hi!"
```
This is not a breaking change, but the above is a less suprising way of configuring custom params.
It also fixes some hard-to-debug corner-cases in multilingual sites.
Fixes#4356Fixes#4352
You can still use the full path with extensions, but to get the current language version:
* If the content file lives in `/content/blog/mypost.en.md`
* Use `.Site.GetPage "page" "blog/mypost"`
Fixes#4285
This commit expands the Resource interface with 3 new methods:
* Name
* Title
* Params
All of these can be set in the Page front matter. `Name` will get its default value from the base filename, and is the value used in the ByPrefix and GetByPrefix lookup methods.
Fixes#4244
