Can't get Hugo at all. Stuck for a couple of days

support
1

I’ve been trying to migrate from Jekyll since it doesn’t work well on Windows for a couple of weeks now.
At first I read the docs about converting to Jekyll, but stuck at a place where you rewrite your templates in go templates.

Afterwards I was trying to find what I’m looking for in the docs, but still didn’t get it.

So.

  1. What are predefined variables which can appear after . symbol in templates? i.e. I see a lot of .Site… and stuff, but I want a list of all the implicit stuff there is.

  2. How URLs are being resolved?

  3. Most important. What are all the predefined names and structure for layouts/templates/partials whatever? Again I want a list of all the implicit stuff.

Pointing me to the right place in the docs would be nice enough.

Thank you.

Follow up.

Where should I create what file for it to be accessible under "http://localhost:1313/foobar.html"
I thought I’ll do /layouts/foobar.html but it doesn’t work.

For 1.
Look here https://gohugo.io/templates/variables/

For 2.
If you’re talking about URL migration look at aliases. https://gohugo.io/extras/aliases/

For 3.
Everything is here with examples https://gohugo.io/templates/overview/

It goes at the root of your /Content/ folder

@alexandros is right. To have urls with .html you have to enable the “ugly urls” in the configuration file.

Thank you so much! Now I’m getting through it.

By the way is there any way I can

use "linenos=inline" with GitHub flavored code-fences?

Like here {{< highlight go "linenos=inline,hl_lines=2 3" >}}

but with

```cpp
int main (int argc, char** argv) {
  printf("Hello, world!");
}


Also is there any way to make it add `style` to line numbers span tags? I managed to did it with jekyll so I can restyle line numbers for black bg.

Anyways I can setup lineos for whole site?

PygmentsOptions = "linenos=inline" in config.toml did the thing
