如何安装雨果？

I have downloaded and unzipped the hugo_0.11_linux_amd64.tar.gz file from the releases page, and I cannot figure out how to run the binary. I took a few stabs at using go run, and sh, but no luck. Can anyone offer a few more details?

Extract hugo_0.11_linux_amd64.tar.gz to a directory. In that directory you should find three files:

hugo_0.11_linux_amd64  LICENSE.md  README.md

Make sure either hugo is in your path or provide a path to it. For example, rename the hugo_0.11_linux_amd64 executable file to hugo. Move the hugo executable file to /usr/local/bin.

Run

$ hugo help

Continue to follow the instructions for Using Hugo.

The installation page does mention:

Once downloaded it can be run from anywhere. You don’t need to install it into a global location.
Ideally you should install it somewhere in your path for easy use. /usr/local/bin is the most probable location.

As long as:

  • you chose the right release for your architecture (linux, Mac or Windows)
  • rename the executable to hugo (or make a symlink to it, named hugo)

  • your $PATH (or %PATH% on Windows) environment variable references the executable hugo, you can start using it.

    hugo new site /path/to/site

Old question, but I figured this could help somebody down the road. I'm on Windows (yes I know this was for Linux) and was running Hugo outside the created directory where hugo.exe lives.

Note that the hugo.exe doesn't have to live in c:\hugo\bin as per the example below

  • Download Hugo (64 or 32-bit) from https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases
  • Create a folder on your C:\ called Hugo.
  • Create another folder inside of C:\Hugo called bin
  • Unzip the file downloaded from the HUGO URL into the bin folder
  • Open cmd.exe to add the path to HUGO to the windows PATH environment variables. Type set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Hugo\bin

To verify that hugo is installed globally, under any directory in command prompt type where hugo and it'll tell you where it is (in our case, c:\hugo\bin\hugo.exe)

From there you should be able to run your Hugo sites from any repository on your HD.

Following works on Linux

Download and Unzip

curl -L https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases/download/v0.54.0/hugo_0.54.0_Linux-64bit.tar.gz | tar xvz

NOTE - -L flag is used in curl to allow github triggered redirects

Move to /usr/local/bin

mv hugo /usr/local/bin/hugo

Once moved to this repo, hugo would be accessible without setting path.
