Découvrez en quoi consiste le thème Hugo - LoveIt et les concepts fondamentaux qui le sous-tendent.

{{< admonition warning >}} Sorry, this article has not been completely translated into French. Welcome to take the time to propose a translation by :(fas fa-code-branch fa-fw): making a PR to the theme! {{< /admonition >}}

1 Requirements

Thanks to the simplicity of Hugo, Hugo is the only dependency of this theme.

Just install latest version of :(far fa-file-archive fa-fw): Hugo extended (> 0.62.0) for your OS (Windows, Linux, macOS).

{{< admonition note "Why not support earlier versions of Hugo?" >}} Since Markdown Render Hooks was introduced in the Hugo Christmas Edition, this theme only supports Hugo versions above 0.62.0. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition note "Why need the Hugo extended version?" >}} Since the theme processes SCSS to CSS, Hugo needs to be the extended version. {{< /admonition >}}

2 Installation

The following steps are here to help you initialize your new website. If you don’t know Hugo at all, we strongly suggest you learn more about it by following this great documentation for beginners.

2.1 Create Your Project

Hugo provides a new command to create a new website:

hugo new site my_website
cd my_website

2.2 Install the Theme

The LoveIt theme’s repository is: https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.

You can download the latest release :(far fa-file-archive fa-fw): .zip file of the theme and extract it in the themes directory.

Alternatively, clone this repository to the themes directory:

git clone https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt

Or, create an empty git repository and make this repository a submodule of your site directory:

git init
git submodule add https://github.com/dillonzq/LoveIt.git themes/LoveIt

2.3 Basic Configuration

The following is a basic configuration for the LoveIt theme:

baseURL = "http://example.org/"
# [en, zh-cn, fr, ...] determines default content language
defaultContentLanguage = "en"
# language code
languageCode = "en"
title = "My New Hugo Site"

# Change the default theme to be use when building the site with Hugo
theme = "LoveIt"

[params]
  # LoveIt theme version
  version = "0.2.X"

[menu]
  [[menu.main]]
    identifier = "posts"
    # you can add extra information before the name (HTML format is supported), such as icons
    pre = ""
    # you can add extra information after the name (HTML format is supported), such as icons
    post = ""
    name = "Posts"
    url = "/posts/"
    # title will be shown when you hover on this menu link
    title = ""
    weight = 1
  [[menu.main]]
    identifier = "tags"
    pre = ""
    post = ""
    name = "Tags"
    url = "/tags/"
    title = ""
    weight = 2
  [[menu.main]]
    identifier = "categories"
    pre = ""
    post = ""
    name = "Categories"
    url = "/categories/"
    title = ""
    weight = 3

{{< admonition >}} When building the website, you can set a theme by using --theme option. However, we suggest you modify the configuration file (config.toml) and set the theme as the default. {{< /admonition >}}

2.4 Create Your First Post

Here is the way to create your first post:

hugo new posts/first_post.md

Feel free to edit the post file by adding some sample content and replacing the title value in the beginning of the file.

{{< admonition >}} By default all posts and pages are created as a draft. If you want to render these pages, remove the property draft: true from the metadata, set the property draft: false or add -D/--buildDrafts parameter to hugo command. {{< /admonition >}}

2.5 Launching the Website Locally

Launch by using the following command:

hugo serve

Go to http://localhost:1313.

{{< admonition tip >}} When you run hugo serve, when the contents of the files change, the page automatically refreshes with the changes. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition >}} Since the theme use .Scratch in Hugo to implement some features, it is highly recommended that you add --disableFastRender parameter to hugo server command for the live preview of the page you are editing.

hugo serve --disableFastRender

{{< /admonition >}}

2.6 Build the Website

When your site is ready to deploy, run the following command:

hugo

A public folder will be generated, containing all static content and assets for your website. It can now be deployed on any web server.

{{< admonition tip >}} The website can be automatically published and hosted with Netlify (Read more about Automated HUGO deployments with Netlify). Alternatively, you can use AWS Amplify, Github pages, Render and more... {{< /admonition >}}

3 Configuration

3.1 Site Configuration

In addition to Hugo global configuration and menu configuration, LoveIt lets you define the following parameters in your site configuration (here is a config.toml, whose values are default).

{{< admonition >}} Note that some of these parameters are explained in details in other sections of this documentation. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition note "Hugo environments" >}} Default environments are development with hugo serve and production with hugo.

Due to limitations in the local development environment, the comment system, CDN and fingerprint will not be enabled in the development environment.

You could enable these features with hugo serve -e production. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition tip "Tips about CDN Configuration" >}} Full HTML tags or URLs are supported for CDN configuration:

smoothScrollJS = '<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/smooth-scroll@16.1.3/dist/smooth-scroll.min.js" integrity="sha256-vP+F+14A1ogChQs5Osd5LJl/ci9TbzjiZjjEbcqOXrY=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>'
# Or
smoothScrollJS = 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/smooth-scroll@16/dist/smooth-scroll.min.js'

{{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition tip "Tips about social Configuration" >}} {{< version 0.2.0 >}}

You can directly set your ID to get a default social link and its icon:

[params.social]
  Mastodon = "@xxxx"

The social link generated is https://mastodon.technology/@xxxx.

Or You can set more options through a dict:

[params.social]
  [params.social.Mastodon]
    # weight when arranging icons (the greater the weight, the later the icon is positioned)
    weight = 0
    # your social ID
    id = "@xxxx"
    # prefix of your social link
    prefix = "https://mastodon.social/"
    # content hovering on the icon
    title = "Mastodon"

The default configuration of all supported social links is located in themes/LoveIt/assets/data/social.yaml, which is you can refer to. {{< /admonition >}}

3.2 Favicons, Browserconfig, Manifest

It is recommended to put your own favicons:

• apple-touch-icon.png (180x180)
• favicon-32x32.png (32x32)
• favicon-16x16.png (16x16)
• mstile-150x150.png (150x150)
• android-chrome-192x192.png (192x192)
• android-chrome-512x512.png (512x512)

into /static. They’re easily created via https://realfavicongenerator.net/.

Customize browserconfig.xml and site.webmanifest to set theme-color and background-color.

3.3 Add Logo and Cover for SEO

Add a logo image (127x40) and a cover image (800x600) in the static directory.

3.4 Style Customization

LoveIt theme has been built to be as configurable as possible by defining custom .scss style files.

The directory including the custom .scss style files is config/css relative to your project root directory.

In config/css/_override.scss, you can override the variables in themes/LoveIt/assets/css/_variables.scss to customize the style.

Here is a example:

@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Fira+Mono:400,700&display=swap&subset=latin-ext');
$code-font-family: Fira Mono, Source Code Pro, Menlo, Consolas, Monaco, monospace;

In config/css/_custom.scss, you can add some css style code to customize the style.

4 Multilingual and i18n

LoveIt theme is fully compatible with Hugo multilingual mode, which provides in-browser language switching.

4.1 Compatibility

{{< version 0.2.0 changed >}}

Language	Hugo Code	HTML lang Attribute	Theme Docs	Lunr.js Support
English	en	en	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):
Simplified Chinese	zh-cn	zh-CN	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):
French	fr	fr	:(far fa-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):
Polish	pl	pl	:(far fa-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-square fa-fw):
Brazilian Portuguese	pt-br	pt-BR	:(far fa-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):
Italian	it	it	:(far fa-square fa-fw):	:(far fa-check-square fa-fw):

4.2 Basic Configuration

After learning how Hugo handle multilingual websites, define your languages in your site configuration.

For example with English, Chinese and French website:

# [en, zh-cn, fr, pl, ...] determines default content language
defaultContentLanguage = "en"

[languages]
  [languages.en]
    weight = 1
    title = "My New Hugo Site"
    languageCode = "en"
    languageName = "English"
    [[languages.en.menu.main]]
      identifier = "posts"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "Posts"
      url = "/posts/"
      title = ""
      weight = 1
    [[languages.en.menu.main]]
      identifier = "tags"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "Tags"
      url = "/tags/"
      title = ""
      weight = 2
    [[languages.en.menu.main]]
      identifier = "categories"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "Categories"
      url = "/categories/"
      title = ""
      weight = 3

  [languages.zh-cn]
    weight = 2
    title = "我的全新 Hugo 网站"
    # language code, CN only here
    languageCode = "zh-CN"
    languageName = "简体中文"
    # whether to include Chinese/Japanese/Korean
    hasCJKLanguage = true
    [[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
      identifier = "posts"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "文章"
      url = "/posts/"
      title = ""
      weight = 1
    [[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
      identifier = "tags"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "标签"
      url = "/tags/"
      title = ""
      weight = 2
    [[languages.zh-cn.menu.main]]
      identifier = "categories"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "分类"
      url = "/categories/"
      title = ""
      weight = 3

  [languages.fr]
    weight = 3
    title = "Mon nouveau site Hugo"
    languageCode = "fr"
    languageName = "Français"
    [[languages.fr.menu.main]]
      identifier = "posts"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "Postes"
      url = "/posts/"
      title = ""
      weight = 1
    [[languages.fr.menu.main]]
      identifier = "tags"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      name = "Balises"
      url = "/tags/"
      title = ""
      weight = 2
    [[languages.fr.menu.main]]
      identifier = "categories"
      name = "Catégories"
      pre = ""
      post = ""
      url = "/categories/"
      title = ""
      weight = 3

Then, for each new page, append the language code to the file name.

Single file my-page.md is split in three files:

• in English: my-page.en.md
• in Chinese: my-page.zh-cn.md
• in French: my-page.fr.md

{{< admonition >}} Be aware that only translated pages are displayed in menu. It’s not replaced with default language content. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition tip >}} Use Front Matter parameter to translate urls too. {{< /admonition >}}

4.3 Overwrite Translation Strings

Translations strings are used for common default values used in the theme. Translations are available in some languages, but you may use another language or want to override default values.

To override these values, create a new file in your local i18n folder i18n/<languageCode>.toml and inspire yourself from themes/LoveIt/i18n/en.toml.

By the way, as these translations could be used by other people, please take the time to propose a translation by :(fas fa-code-branch fa-fw): making a PR to the theme!

5 Search

{{< version 0.2.0 >}}

Based on Lunr.js or algolia, searching is supported in LoveIt theme.

5.1 Output Configuration

In order to generate index.json for searching, add JSON output file type to the home of the outputs part in your site configuration.

[outputs]
  home = ["HTML", "RSS", "JSON"]

5.2 Search Configuration

Based on index.json generated by Hugo, you could activate searching.

Here is the search configuration in your site configuration:

[params.search]
  enable = true
  # type of search engine ("lunr", "algolia")
  type = "lunr"
  # max index length of the chunked content
  contentLength = 5000
  # placeholder of the search bar
  placeholder = ""
  # {{< version 0.2.1 >}} max number of results length
  maxResultLength = 10
  # {{< version 0.2.1 >}} HTML tag name of the highlight part in results
  highlightTag = "em"
  [params.search.algolia]
    index = ""
    appID = ""
    searchKey = ""

{{< admonition note "How to choose search engine?" >}} The following is a comparison of two search engines:

• lunr: simple, no need to synchronize index.json, no limit for contentLength, but high bandwidth and low performance (Especially for Chinese which needs a large segmentit library)
• algolia: high performance and low bandwidth, but need to synchronize index.json and limit for contentLength

{{< version 0.2.1 >}} The content of the post is separated by h2 HTML tag to improve query performance and basically implement full-text search. contentLength is used to limit the max index length of the part starting with h2 HTML tag. {{< /admonition >}}

{{< admonition tip "Tips about algolia" >}} You need to upload index.json files to algolia to activate searching. You could upload the index.json files by browsers but a CLI tool may be better. Algolia Atomic is a good choice. To be compatible with Hugo multilingual mode, you need to upload different index.json for each language to the different index of algolia, such as zh-cn/index.json or fr/index.json... {{< /admonition >}}
