Hugo add-on for Caddy

Deploy your Hugo website and enjoy of an admin interface with Caddy server.

Configuration

hugo {
  styles    file
  flags     flags...
}

  • file is the relative path to public folder of the admin UI styles. They will not replace the defaults, they will be added.

  • flags are the Hugo flags (those which can be set in the command line) and they must follow one of these syntaxes: -f=value and --flag=value.

Build it from source

If you want to try the Hugo add-on for Caddy (and improve it maybe), you'll have to install some tools.

If you want to go deeper and make changes in front-end assets like JavaScript or CSS, you'll need some more tools.

Run it

If you have already installed everything above to meet the requirements for what you want to do, let's start. Firstly, open the terminal and navigate to your clone of caddy-hugo. Then execute:

go-bindata [-debug] -pkg assets -o assets/assets.go templates/ assets/css/ assets/js/ assets/fonts/

That command will create an assets.go file which contains all static files from those folders mentioned in the command. You may run with -debug option if you want, but it is only needed if you're going to make changes in front-end assets.

Now, open the folder with your Hugo website and create a Caddyfile similar to this one:

localhost:8080

root public

basicauth /admin admin admin

errors {
  404 404.html
}

hugo

After creating the file, navigate to that folder using the terminal and run the following command, replacing {CADDY-HUGO} with the location of your clone.

caddydev --source {CADDY-HUGO} hugo

Navigate to localhost:8080 to see your blog running on Caddy and Hugo. Go to /admin to try the Admin UI. The default user name is admin, so is the password. You may change in your Caddyfile.

Everything is working now. Whenever you make a change in the back-end source code, you'll have to run the command above again.

For those who want to make changes in front-end, make sure you have every needed tool installed and run npm install in the root of caddy-hugo clone. Then, run grunt watch.
