Dynamic content rendering in Hugo

support
1

Do we have any other mechanism to store/render the content/Data like images not in JSON/YAML in Hugo Projects? Can you tell us the ways to store the data in Hugo project or how to render data dynamically?

2

I don’t understand the question. A specific example would be helpful.

3

I have more than 80 pages in my site and my client doesnt want to keep all images in the project folder, they need to render those images dynamically

4

What does that mean?

5

Instead of keeping all images/content under static folder of hugo project, do we have an option to get them from other source, for example Netflix is rendering the videos from data base right

At a high level, the answer to your question is yes:

  • You can pull the images from a module
  • You can use the resources.GetRemote function to capture a remote image as a resource
  • You can use services such as Cloudinary and Cloudflare Images
  • etc.

But the real answer to your question depends on the details.

Hi,

Currently our existing CMS has capability to upload content/images in the UI/interface and i think those images are stored in the tool itself. Like wise do we have any feature in Hugo?

Why? What is it that you want to achieve? Usually the images are delivered by the web server on demand („dynamically“?) anyway.
If you put them in the asset folder or somewhere else doesn’t matter.

Asset folder means the one which is in local code repo

I know what the asset folder is. I still don’t know what your issue with images is.

you can store the images where you want as long as hugo can access them. See Dynamic content rendering in Hugo - #6 by jmooring

but hugo itself has no upload capabilities
