This is a quick start template for Hugo theme Stack. It uses Hugo modules feature to load the theme.
It comes with a basic theme structure and configuration. GitHub action has been set up to deploy the theme to a public GitHub page automatically. Also, there's a cron job to update the theme automatically everyday.
To get started:
-
Click Use this template, and create your repository on GitHub.
-
Once the repository is created, create a GitHub codespace asociated with it.
-
And voila! You're ready to go. The codespace has been configured with the latest version of Hugo extended, just run
hugo server
in the terminal and see your new site in action. -
Check
config
folder for the configuration files. You can edit them to suit your needs. Make sure to update thebaseurl
property inconfig/_default/config.toml
to your site's URL. -
Once you're done editing the site, just commit it and push it. GitHub action will deploy the site automatically to GitHub page asociated with the repository.
In case you don't want to use GitHub codespace, you can also run this template in your local machine. You need to install Git, Go and Hugo extended locally.
Run:
hugo mod get -u github.com/CaiJimmy/hugo-theme-stack/v3
hugo mod tidy
This starter template has been configured with
v3
version of theme. Due to the limitation of Go module, once thev4
or up version of theme is released, you need to update the theme manually. (Modifyingconfig/module.toml
file)
If you want to build this site using another static page hosting, you need to make sure they have Go installed in the machine.
