Transition to a Hugo Module?

[garrison]

Have you considered making victorhugo into a Hugo Module? Some examples of this in action are at https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo-mod-jslibs. I think it might make victorhugo even easier to hook into a web site; it will allow users to more easily keep their version of victorhugo up-to-date; and it will likely mean you can modify victorhugo in ways that could make it more maintainable, rather than have it continue to be one big file.

Too advanced for me. The docunentation seems too cryptic. Maybe in the future.

I agree that the Hugo Modules documentation currently is not very good. That's why I linked to hugo-mod-jslibs. For instance, the wrapping there of turbolinks is pretty simple and straightforward.

I'm giving it a try later today. Thank you for letting me know, I hadn't seen that bit ypu you mention. That said, I've found the lack of official support from Hugo to be really demoralizing, to the point where I'm considering moving the project outside Hugo. Wordpress supported their plugging devs 100% all the way when they first launched. I don't see the same from Hugo. It would explain the lack of themes and modules (or pluggings). Yeah, modules are pretty new but... even then. It is almost like they can't be bothered with it.

Hot damn James, you are a theoretical physicist! Congrats on you, man!
