     3  # Contributing to Hugo
     4  
     5  We welcome contributions to Hugo of any kind including documentation, themes,
     6  organization, tutorials, blog posts, bug reports, issues, feature requests,
     7  feature implementations, pull requests, answering questions on the forum,
     8  helping to manage issues, etc.
     9  
    10  The Hugo community and maintainers are [very active](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pulse/monthly) and helpful, and the project benefits greatly from this activity. We created a [step by step guide](https://gohugo.io/tutorials/how-to-contribute-to-hugo/) if you're unfamiliar with GitHub or contributing to open source projects in general.
    11  
    12  *Note that this repository only contains the actual source code of Hugo. For **only** documentation-related pull requests / issues please refer to the [hugoDocs](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs) repository.*
    13  
    14  *Changes to the codebase **and** related documentation, e.g. for a new feature, should still use a single pull request.*

    26  ## Asking Support Questions
    27  
    28  We have an active [discussion forum](https://discourse.gohugo.io) where users and developers can ask questions.
    29  Please don't use the GitHub issue tracker to ask questions.
    30  
    31  ## Reporting Issues
    32  
    33  If you believe you have found a defect in Hugo or its documentation, use
    34  the GitHub issue tracker to report
    35  the problem to the Hugo maintainers. If you're not sure if it's a bug or not,
    36  start by asking in the [discussion forum](https://discourse.gohugo.io).
    37  When reporting the issue, please provide the version of Hugo in use (`hugo
    38  version`) and your operating system.

    44  ## Code Contribution
    45  
    46  Hugo has become a fully featured static site generator, so any new functionality must:
    47  
    48  * be useful to many.
    49  * fit naturally into _what Hugo does best._
    50  * strive not to break existing sites.
    51  * close or update an open [Hugo issue](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues)
    52  
    53  If it is of some complexity, the contributor is expected to maintain and support the new feature in the future (answer questions on the forum, fix any bugs etc.).
    54  
    55  Any non-trivial code change needs to update an open [issue](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues). A non-trivial code change without an issue reference with one of the labels `bug` or `enhancement` will not be merged.
    56  
    57  Note that we do not accept new features that require [CGO](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/cgo).
    58  We have one exception to this rule which is LibSASS.
    59  
    60  **Bug fixes are, of course, always welcome.**
    61  
    62  ## Submitting Patches
    63  
    64  The Hugo project welcomes all contributors and contributions regardless of skill or experience level. If you are interested in helping with the project, we will help you with your contribution.
    65  
    66  ### Code Contribution Guidelines
    67  
    68  Because we want to create the best possible product for our users and the best contribution experience for our developers, we have a set of guidelines which ensure that all contributions are acceptable. The guidelines are not intended as a filter or barrier to participation. If you are unfamiliar with the contribution process, the Hugo team will help you and teach you how to bring your contribution in accordance with the guidelines.
    69  
    70  To make the contribution process as seamless as possible, we ask for the following:
    71  
    72  * Go ahead and fork the project and make your changes.  We encourage pull requests to allow for review and discussion of code changes.
    73  * When you’re ready to create a pull request, be sure to:
    74      * Sign the [CLA](https://cla-assistant.io/gohugoio/hugo).
    75      * Have test cases for the new code. If you have questions about how to do this, please ask in your pull request.
    76      * Run `go fmt`.
    77      * Add documentation if you are adding new features or changing functionality.  The docs site lives in `/docs`.
    78      * Squash your commits into a single commit. `git rebase -i`. It’s okay to force update your pull request with `git push -f`.
    79      * Ensure that `mage check` succeeds. [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/gohugoio/hugo) (Windows, Linux and macOS) will fail the build if `mage check` fails.
    80      * Follow the **Git Commit Message Guidelines** below.
    81  
    82  ### Git Commit Message Guidelines
    83  
    84  This [blog article](https://cbea.ms/git-commit/) is a good resource for learning how to write good commit messages,
    85  the most important part being that each commit message should have a title/subject in imperative mood starting with a capital letter and no trailing period:
    86  *"js: Return error when option x is not set"*, **NOT** *"returning some error."*
    87  
    88  Most title/subjects should have a lower-cased prefix with a colon and one whitespace. The prefix can be:
    89  
    90  * The name of the package where (most of) the changes are made (e.g. `media: Add text/calendar`)
    91  * If the package name is deeply nested/long, try to shorten it from the left side, e.g. `markup/goldmark` is OK, `resources/resource_transformers/js` can be shortened to `js`.
    92  * If this commit touches several packages with a common functional topic, use that as a prefix, e.g. `errors: Resolve correct line numbers`)
    93  * If this commit touches many packages without a common functional topic, prefix with `all:` (e.g. `all: Reformat Go code`)
    94  * If this is a documentation update, prefix with `docs:`.
    95  * If nothing of the above applies, just leave the prefix out.
    96  
    97  Also, if your commit references one or more GitHub issues, always end your commit message body with *See #1234* or *Fixes #1234*.
    98  Replace *1234* with the GitHub issue ID. The last example will close the issue when the commit is merged into *master*.
    99  
   100  An example:
   101  
   102  ```text
   103  tpl: Add custom index function
   104  
   105  Add a custom index template function that deviates from the stdlib simply by not
   106  returning an "index out of range" error if an array, slice or string index is
   107  out of range.  Instead, we just return nil values.  This should help make the
   108  new default function more useful for Hugo users.
   109  
   110  Fixes #1949
   111  ```
   112  
   113  ###  Fetching the Sources From GitHub
   114  
   115  Since Hugo 0.48, Hugo uses the Go Modules support built into Go 1.11 to build. The easiest is to clone Hugo in a directory outside of `GOPATH`, as in the following example:
   116  
   117  ```bash
   118  mkdir $HOME/src
   119  cd $HOME/src
   120  git clone https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo.git
   121  cd hugo
   122  go install
   123  ```
   124  
   125  For some convenient build and test targets, you also will want to install Mage:
   126  
   127  ```bash
   128  go install github.com/magefile/mage
   129  ```
   130  
   131  Now, to make a change to Hugo's source:
   132  
   133  1. Create a new branch for your changes (the branch name is arbitrary):
   134  
   135      ```bash
   136      git checkout -b iss1234
   137      ```
   138  
   139  1. After making your changes, commit them to your new branch:
   140  
   141      ```bash
   142      git commit -a -v
   143      ```
   144  
   145  1. Fork Hugo in GitHub.
   146  
   147  1. Add your fork as a new remote (the remote name, "fork" in this example, is arbitrary):
   148  
   149      ```bash
   150      git remote add fork git@github.com:USERNAME/hugo.git
   151      ```
   152  
   153  1. Push the changes to your new remote:
   154  
   155      ```bash
   156      git push --set-upstream fork iss1234
   157      ```
   158  
   159  1. You're now ready to submit a PR based upon the new branch in your forked repository.
   160  
   161  ### Building Hugo with Your Changes
   162  
   163  Hugo uses [mage](https://github.com/magefile/mage) to sync vendor dependencies, build Hugo, run the test suite and other things. You must run mage from the Hugo directory.
   164  
   165  ```bash
   166  cd $HOME/go/src/github.com/gohugoio/hugo
   167  ```
   168  
   169  To build Hugo:
   170  
   171  ```bash
   172  mage hugo
   173  ```
   174  
   175  To install hugo in `$HOME/go/bin`:
   176  
   177  ```bash
   178  mage install
   179  ```
   180  
   181  To run the tests:
   182  
   183  ```bash
   184  mage hugoRace
   185  mage -v check
   186  ```
   187  
   188  To list all available commands along with descriptions:
   189  
   190  ```bash
   191  mage -l
   192  ```
   193  
   194  **Note:** From Hugo 0.43 we have added a build tag, `extended` that adds **SCSS support**. This needs a C compiler installed to build. You can enable this when building by:
   195  
   196  ```bash
   197  HUGO_BUILD_TAGS=extended mage install
   198  ````
