v0.81.0
59d15c9

Hugo 0.81.0 is the first release in this decade, it is the fastest to date, and it's packed with useful new features.

Newlines in Template Actions and Commands

You can now have newlines within template actions and pipelines. This means that you can now do this and similar:

{{ dict 
	"country" "Norway" 
	"population" "5 millions"
	"language" "Norwegian"
	"language_code" "nb"
	"weather" "freezing cold"
	"capitol" "Oslo"
	"largest_city" "Oslo"
	"currency"  "Norwegian krone"
	"dialing_code" "+47" 
}}

Note that the above construction will fail in Hugo versions < 0.81.0.

Attribute Lists after Markdown Blocks

Hugo already supports adding attribute lists (e.g CSS classes) after titles. We now also allow adding attribute lists after Markdown blocks, e.g. tables, lists, paragraphs etc.:

> foo
> bar
{.myclass}

See Configure Goldmark.

Performance

This release is the fastest Hugo to date, see details in the benchmarks below. This is especially true if you use the new ARM64 MacOS binary (only works on Apple M1 devices).

Native Arm Binary for Apple M1

We finally provide native Hugo binary for Apple M1 devices. Download the file named hugo_0.81.0_macOS-ARM64.tar.gz.

JavaScript Building

  • Add inject config option allowing you to automatically replace a global variable with an import from another file relative to assets. 32b86076 @bep #8164
  • Add shims config option to swap out a component with another. A common use case is to load dependencies like React from a CDN (with shims) when in production, but running with the full bundled node_modules dependency during development e19a046c @bep #8165
  • Add external source map support to js.Build and Babel 2c8b5d91 @richtera #8132
  • Fix nilpointer in js.Build error handling a1fe552f @bep #8162

Also see js.Build Options.

Hugo now has:

Notes

  • We have updated to Beta 6 of the Dart Sass Protocol which is not backwards compatible, so if you use Dart Sass you need to also update that binary.
  • hugo gen autocomplete now default to stdout; you can change this by setting --completionfile. As an added bonus we now also support auto completion for zsh, fish and powershell.
