Hugo Module – Archive

This Hugo module creates year, month, and day archive pages for one section of a site. The module includes shortcodes and partials to render an archive widget or outline.

Requires Hugo v0.126.2 or later.

Configuration

To add this module to your project, initialize your project as a Hugo module:

hugo mod init foo

In the above, foo is typically something like github.com/user/project.

Then add this to your site configuration:

[[module.imports]]
path = 'github.com/jmooring/hugo-module-archive'

[params.modules.archive]
section = '/posts/'   # The section for which to build archive pages.
prefix = '/archive/'  # The URL prefix for archive pages.
paginate = true       # Whether to paginate archive pages.
navigation = false    # Whether to display previous and next buttons on archive pages.

[params.modules.archive.formats]
year = "2006"
month = "January 2006"
day = "2 January 2006"

In the date formats above you may also use localization tokens such as :date_long and :date_medium.

To override archive page titles, create an i18n file:

archive_title_year = 'Yearly archive for'
archive_title_month = 'Monthly archive for'
archive_title_day = 'Daily archive for'

Usage

Run these commands to build your site:

mkdir -p assets/data
hugo mod verify
hugo list published > assets/data/published-content.csv
hugo

Shortcodes

To insert an archive widget in your content:

{{< archive/widget >}}

To insert an archive outline in your content:

{{< archive/outline >}}

Partials

{{ partial "archive/widget.html" }}
