This **Hugo Setup Action** can install [Hugo] to a virtual machine of **GitHub Actions**.
**Hugo extended** version, **Hugo Modules**, Linux (Ubuntu), macOS, and Windows are supported.
[Hugo]: https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo
From `v2`, this Hugo Setup Action has migrated to a JavaScript (TypeScript) action.
We no longer build or pull a Hugo docker image.
Thanks to this change, we can complete this action in less than a few seconds.
(A docker base action was taking about 1 min or more execution time to build and pull a docker image.)

## Getting started
### ⭐️ Create your workflow
An example workflow `.github/workflows/gh-pages.yml` with [GitHub Actions for GitHub Pages].
For the first deployment, we have to do this operation: [First Deployment with `GITHUB_TOKEN` - peaceiris/actions-gh-pages](https://github.com/peaceiris/actions-gh-pages#%EF%B8%8F-first-deployment-with-github_token)
[GitHub Actions for GitHub Pages]: https://github.com/peaceiris/actions-gh-pages
[](https://github.com/peaceiris/actions-gh-pages)
```yaml
name: github pages
on:
push:
branches:
- main # Set a branch to deploy
jobs:
deploy:
runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
submodules: true # Fetch Hugo themes (true OR recursive)
fetch-depth: 0 # Fetch all history for .GitInfo and .Lastmod
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: '0.75.1'
# extended: true
- name: Build
run: hugo --minify
- name: Deploy
uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
with:
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
publish_dir: ./public
```
## Options
### ⭐️ Use Hugo extended
Set `extended: true` to use a Hugo extended version.
```yaml
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: '0.75.1'
extended: true
```
### ⭐️ Use the latest version of Hugo
Set `hugo-version: 'latest'` to use the latest version of Hugo.
```yaml
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: 'latest'
```
This action fetches the latest version of Hugo by [hugo | Homebrew Formulae](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/hugo)
## Tips
### ⭐️ Caching Hugo Modules
Insert a cache step before site-building as follows.
Note that the cache dir location of Hugo on a Linux-based operating system is `/tmp/hugo_cache`. On macOS, `${TMPDIR}/hugo_cache` has the location.
```yaml
- uses: actions/cache@v2
with:
path: /tmp/hugo_cache
key: ${{ runner.os }}-hugomod-${{ hashFiles('**/go.sum') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-hugomod-
- name: Build
run: hugo --minify
```
### ⭐️ Read Hugo version from file
How to sync a Hugo version between a Docker Compose and a GitHub Actions workflow via `.env` file.
Write a `HUGO_VERSION` to the `.env` file like the following and push it to a remote branch.
```sh
HUGO_VERSION=0.75.1
```
Next, add a step to read a Hugo version from the `.env` file.
```yaml
- name: Read .env
id: hugo-version
run: |
. ./.env
echo "::set-output name=HUGO_VERSION::${HUGO_VERSION}"
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: '${{ steps.hugo-version.outputs.HUGO_VERSION }}'
extended: true
```
Here is a `docker-compose.yml` example.
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
hugo:
container_name: hugo
image: "peaceiris/hugo:v${HUGO_VERSION}"
# image: peaceiris/hugo:v${HUGO_VERSION}-mod # Hugo Modules
# image: peaceiris/hugo:v${HUGO_VERSION}-full # Hugo Modules and Node.js
ports:
- 1313:1313
volumes:
- ${PWD}:/src
command:
- server
- --bind=0.0.0.0
- --buildDrafts
```
The alpine base Hugo Docker image is provided on the following repository.
> [peaceiris/hugo-extended-docker: Hugo alpine base Docker image (Hugo extended and Hugo Modules)](https://github.com/peaceiris/hugo-extended-docker)
### ⭐️ Workflow for autoprefixer and postcss-cli
Here is an example workflow for the [google/docsy] Hugo theme.
This theme needs `autoprefixer` and `postcss-cli` to build a project.
The following workflow is tested on [google/docsy-example].
[google/docsy]: https://github.com/google/docsy
[google/docsy-example]: https://github.com/google/docsy-example
A workflow for the Hugo Babel pipeline is also the same as follows.
```yaml
name: github pages
on:
push:
branches:
- main # Set a branch to deploy
jobs:
deploy:
runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
submodules: recursive # Fetch the Docsy theme
fetch-depth: 0 # Fetch all history for .GitInfo and .Lastmod
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: '0.75.1'
extended: true
- name: Setup Node
uses: actions/setup-node@v1
with:
node-version: '12.x'
- name: Cache dependencies
uses: actions/cache@v1
with:
path: ~/.npm
key: ${{ runner.os }}-node-${{ hashFiles('**/package-lock.json') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-node-
- run: npm ci
- run: hugo --minify
- name: Deploy
uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
with:
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
```
### ⭐️ Workflow for asciidoctor
Here is an example workflow for a Hugo project using `asciidoctor`.
```yaml
name: github pages
on:
push:
branches:
- main # Set a branch to deploy
jobs:
deploy:
runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
submodules: true # Fetch Hugo themes (true OR recursive)
fetch-depth: 0 # Fetch all history for .GitInfo and .Lastmod
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
with:
hugo-version: '0.75.1'
extended: true
- name: Setup Ruby
uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
with:
ruby-version: 2.7
- run: gem install asciidoctor
- name: Run Hugo
run: |
alias asciidoctor="asciidoctor --attribute=experimental=true --attribute=icons=font"
hugo --minify
- name: Deploy
uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
with:
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
```
