The easiest way to use this theme is to fork hugo-toha.github.io sample repo.Then change the configurations according to your need.
If you want to start from scratch, then follow these steps:
At first, initialize Hugo modules in your repo. This will create a go.mod
file.
hugo mod init github.com/<your username>/<your repo name>
Now, in your hugo.yaml
file, add a module
section.
# Use Hugo modules to add theme
module:
imports:
- path: github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4
Check this sample hugo.yaml for further reference.
Now, run this command to load this theme as your module.
hugo mod tidy
Now, you can run your hugo site locally with the following steps:
Now run the following command to generate node dependency configuration. This will create the a package.json
file in you repo.
hugo mod npm pack
Install the node dependencies using following command:
npm install
Now, run you site locally using following command.
hugo server -w
When you run your site for first time, it will start with the default parameters. It should look similar to the example site. However, it will not have any sections in the homepage as we haven't configured them yet. You can configure your site by following the guides from here.
Here, are some handy shortcodes you can use with this theme.
You can contribute to this theme in various ways. You can report a bug, file an feature request, send a PR, share your thoughts etc.
Pull requests are most welcome and I will be happy to review. Just follow the following principles:
I am not a web developer. I have created this theme for my personal needs. So, it is reasonable to have some flaws in the codes. Feel free to open issues and PRs acknowledging the problems.
For local development, you can make changes in the theme submodule and test the changes against your own site or this example site locally.
At first, fork this repo. Then, follow the following steps to use the forked theme for local developments,
If your want to run your local development against this example site, follow the following steps:
# go to exampleSite directory
$ cd exampleSite
# install hugo modules
$ hugo mod tidy
# install dependencies
$ hugo mod npm pack
$ npm install
# run the example site locally
$ hugo server -w
Now, you can make change in the theme and they will be reflected immediately on the running site. If you need to change any configuration, you can do that in the hugo.yaml
file inside exampleSite
folder. If you need to add any content or data, you can create the respective folder inside exampleSite
directory and add your desired content or data there.
If you want to run your local development against your own site, follow the following steps:
Replace the theme module:
Open your site's go.mod
file and replace the github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4
with your forked repo's path. For example, if your forked repo is github.com/<your-github-user>/toha
, then replace the github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4
with github.com/<your-github-user>/toha/v4
.
module github.com/hugo-toha/hugo-toha.github.io
go 1.19
require github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4 v4.0.1-0.20231229170427-d3968ca711ef // indirect
replace(
github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4 => github.com/<your-github-user>/toha/v4 <git branch>
)
For interactive development, you can replace the theme with your locally cloned fork. For example, if you have cloned your fork in /home/my-projects/toha
, then replace the github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4
with /home/my-projects/toha
.
module github.com/hugo-toha/hugo-toha.github.io
go 1.19
require github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4 v4.0.1-0.20231229170427-d3968ca711ef // indirect
replace(
github.com/hugo-toha/toha/v4 => /home/my-projects/toha
)
Update dependencies:
# update hugo modules
$ hugo mod tidy
# install dependencies
$ hugo mod npm pack
$ npm install
Run your site locally:
$ hugo server -w
From there you can make changes to the source code of the theme while testing with your running Hugo site or the example site.
When the changes look good, commit and push them to your fork.
# stage all the changes
$ git add .
# commit the changes with a meaning full commit message
$ git commit -m "A meaningful commit message"
# push the commit to your fork
$ git push my-fork my-feature-branch
Then, open a PR against main
branch of hugo-toha/toha from the my-feature-branch
branch of your own fork.
