    Installation

    Install as git submodule

    Navigate to your hugo project root and run:

    git submodule add https://github.com/alex-shpak/hugo-book themes/hugo-book

    Then run hugo (or set theme = "hugo-book"/theme: hugo-book in configuration file)

    hugo server --minify --theme hugo-book

    Install as hugo module

    You can also add this theme as a Hugo module instead of a git submodule.

    Start with initializing hugo modules, if not done yet:

    hugo mod init github.com/repo/path

    Navigate to your hugo project root and add [module] section to your config.toml:

    [module]
    [[module.imports]]
    path = 'github.com/alex-shpak/hugo-book'

    Then, to load/update the theme module and run hugo:

    hugo mod get -u
    hugo server --minify

    Creating site from scratch

    Below is an example on how to create a new site from scratch:

    hugo new site mydocs; cd mydocs
    git init
    git submodule add https://github.com/alex-shpak/hugo-book themes/hugo-book
    cp -R themes/hugo-book/exampleSite/content.en/* ./content
    hugo server --minify --theme hugo-book

    Menu

    File tree menu (default)

    By default, the theme will render pages from the content/docs section as a menu in a tree structure.
    You can set title and weight in the front matter of pages to adjust the order and titles in the menu.

    Leaf bundle menu (Deprecated, to be removed in June 2022)

    You can also use leaf bundle and the content of its index.md file as menu.
    Given you have the following file structure:

    ├── content
    │   ├── docs
    │   │   ├── page-one.md
    │   │   └── page-two.md
    │   └── posts
    │       ├── post-one.md
    │       └── post-two.md

    Create a file content/menu/index.md with the content:

    +++
    headless = true
    +++
    
    - [Book Example]({{< relref "/docs/" >}})
      - [Page One]({{< relref "/docs/page-one" >}})
      - [Page Two]({{< relref "/docs/page-two" >}})
    - [Blog]({{< relref "/posts" >}})

    And Enable it by setting BookMenuBundle: /menu in Site configuration.

    Blog

    A simple blog is supported in the section posts.
    A blog is not the primary usecase of this theme, so it has only minimal features.

    Configuration

    Site Configuration

    There are a few configuration options that you can add to your config.toml file.
    You can also see the yaml example here.

    # (Optional) Set Google Analytics if you use it to track your website.
    # Always put it on the top of the configuration file, otherwise it won't work
    googleAnalytics = "UA-XXXXXXXXX-X"
    
    # (Optional) If you provide a Disqus shortname, comments will be enabled on
    # all pages.
    disqusShortname = "my-site"
    
    # (Optional) Set this to true if you use capital letters in file names
    disablePathToLower = true
    
    # (Optional) Set this to true to enable 'Last Modified by' date and git author
    #  information on 'doc' type pages.
    enableGitInfo = true
    
    # (Optional) Theme is intended for documentation use, therefore it doesn't render taxonomy.
    # You can remove related files with config below
    disableKinds = ['taxonomy', 'taxonomyTerm']
    
    [params]
      # (Optional, default light) Sets color theme: light, dark or auto.
      # Theme 'auto' switches between dark and light modes based on browser/os preferences
      BookTheme = 'light'
    
      # (Optional, default true) Controls table of contents visibility on right side of pages.
      # Start and end levels can be controlled with markup.tableOfContents setting.
      # You can also specify this parameter per page in front matter.
      BookToC = true
    
      # (Optional, default none) Set the path to a logo for the book. If the logo is
      # /static/logo.png then the path would be 'logo.png'
      BookLogo = 'logo.png'
    
      # (Optional, default none) Set leaf bundle to render as side menu
      # When not specified file structure and weights will be used
      # Deprecated, to be removed in June 2022
      BookMenuBundle = '/menu'
    
      # (Optional, default docs) Specify section of content to render as menu
      # You can also set value to "*" to render all sections to menu
      BookSection = 'docs'
    
      # Set source repository location.
      # Used for 'Last Modified' and 'Edit this page' links.
      BookRepo = 'https://github.com/alex-shpak/hugo-book'
    
      # Specifies commit portion of the link to the page's last modified commit hash for 'doc' page
      # type.
      # Required if 'BookRepo' param is set.
      # Value used to construct a URL consisting of BookRepo/BookCommitPath/<commit-hash>
      # Github uses 'commit', Bitbucket uses 'commits'
      BookCommitPath = 'commit'
    
      # Enable 'Edit this page' links for 'doc' page type.
      # Disabled by default. Uncomment to enable. Requires 'BookRepo' param.
      # Path must point to the site directory.
      BookEditPath = 'edit/master/exampleSite'
    
      # (Optional, default January 2, 2006) Configure the date format used on the pages
      # - In git information
      # - In blog posts
      BookDateFormat = 'Jan 2, 2006'
    
      # (Optional, default true) Enables search function with flexsearch,
      # Index is built on fly, therefore it might slowdown your website.
      # Configuration for indexing can be adjusted in i18n folder per language.
      BookSearch = true
    
      # (Optional, default true) Enables comments template on pages
      # By default partials/docs/comments.html includes Disqus template
      # See https://gohugo.io/content-management/comments/#configure-disqus
      # Can be overwritten by same param in page frontmatter
      BookComments = true
    
      # /!\ This is an experimental feature, might be removed or changed at any time
      # (Optional, experimental, default false) Enables portable links and link checks in markdown pages.
      # Portable links meant to work with text editors and let you write markdown without {{< relref >}} shortcode
      # Theme will print warning if page referenced in markdown does not exists.
      BookPortableLinks = true
    
      # /!\ This is an experimental feature, might be removed or changed at any time
      # (Optional, experimental, default false) Enables service worker that caches visited pages and resources for offline use.
      BookServiceWorker = true

    Multi-Language Support

    Theme supports Hugo's multilingual mode, just follow configuration guide there. You can also tweak search indexing configuration per language in i18n folder.

    Page Configuration

    You can specify additional params in the front matter of individual pages:

    # Set type to 'docs' if you want to render page outside of configured section or if you render section other than 'docs'
    type = 'docs'
    
    # Set page weight to re-arrange items in file-tree menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
    weight = 10
    
    # (Optional) Set to 'true' to mark page as flat section in file-tree menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
    bookFlatSection = false
    
    # (Optional) Set to hide nested sections or pages at that level. Works only with file-tree menu mode
    bookCollapseSection = true
    
    # (Optional) Set true to hide page or section from side menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
    bookHidden = false
    
    # (Optional) Set 'false' to hide ToC from page
    bookToC = true
    
    # (Optional) If you have enabled BookComments for the site, you can disable it for specific pages.
    bookComments = true
    
    # (Optional) Set to 'false' to exclude page from search index.
    bookSearchExclude = true
    
    # (Optional) Set explicit href attribute for this page in a menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
    bookHref = ''

    Partials

    There are layout partials available for you to easily override components of the theme in layouts/partials/.

    In addition to this, there are several empty partials you can override to easily add/inject code.

    Empty Partial Placement
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/head.html Before closing <head> tag
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/body.html Before closing <body> tag
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/footer.html After page footer content
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/menu-before.html At the beginning of <nav> menu block
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/menu-after.html At the end of <nav> menu block
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/content-before.html Before page content
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/content-after.html After page content
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/toc-before.html At the beginning of table of contents block
    layouts/partials/docs/inject/toc-after.html At the end of table of contents block

    Extra Customisation

    File Description
    static/favicon.png Override default favicon
    assets/_custom.scss Customise or override scss styles
    assets/_variables.scss Override default SCSS variables
    assets/_fonts.scss Replace default font with custom fonts (e.g. local files or remote like google fonts)
    assets/mermaid.json Replace Mermaid initialization config

    Plugins

    There are a few features implemented as plugable scss styles. Usually these are features that don't make it to the core but can still be useful.

    Plugin Description
    assets/plugins/_numbered.scss Makes headings in markdown numbered, e.g. 1.1, 1.2
    assets/plugins/_scrollbars.scss Overrides scrollbar styles to look similar across platforms

    To enable plugins, add @import "plugins/{name}"; to assets/_custom.scss in your website root.

    Hugo Internal Templates

    There are a few hugo templates inserted in <head>

    To disable Open Graph inclusion you can create your own empty file \layouts\_internal\opengraph.html. In fact almost empty not quite empty because an empty file looks like absent for HUGO. For example:

    <!-- -->

    Shortcodes

    By default, Goldmark trims unsafe outputs which might prevent some shortcodes from rendering. It is recommended to set markup.goldmark.renderer.unsafe=true if you encounter problems.

    [markup.goldmark.renderer]
      unsafe = true

    If you are using config.yaml or config.json, consult the configuration markup

    Versioning

    This theme follows a simple incremental versioning. e.g. v1, v2 and so on. There might be breaking changes between versions.

    If you want lower maintenance, use one of the released versions. If you want to live on the bleeding edge of changes, you can use the master branch and update your website when needed.

    Contributing

    Extra credits to contributors

    Contributions are welcome and I will review and consider pull requests.
    Primary goals are:

    • Keep it simple.
    • Keep minimal (or zero) default configuration.
    • Avoid interference with user-defined layouts.
    • Avoid using JS if it can be solved by CSS.

    Feel free to open issues if you find missing configuration or customisation options.
