    22  In Hugo, A list template is any template that will be used to render multiple pieces of content in a single HTML page.
    23  
    24  ## Example List Templates
    25  
    26  ### Section Template
    27  
    28  This list template is used for [spf13.com](http://spf13.com/). It makes use of [partial templates][partials]. All examples use a [view](/templates/views/) called either "li" or "summary."
    29  
    30  {{< code file="layouts/section/post.html" >}}
    31  {{ partial "header.html" . }}
    32  {{ partial "subheader.html" . }}
    33  
    34  <section id="main">
    35    <div>
    36     <h1 id="title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
    37          <ul id="list">
    38              {{ range .Pages }}
    39                  {{ .Render "li"}}
    40              {{ end }}
    41          </ul>
    42    </div>
    43  </section>
    44  {{ partial "footer.html" . }}
    45  {{< /code >}}
    46  
    47  ### Taxonomy Template
    48  
    49  {{< code file="layouts/_default/taxonomies.html" download="taxonomies.html" >}}
    50  {{ define "main" }}
    51  <section id="main">
    52    <div>
    53     <h1 id="title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
    54      {{ range .Pages }}
    55          {{ .Render "summary"}}
    56      {{ end }}
    57    </div>
    58  </section>
    59  {{ end }}
    60  {{< /code >}}
    61  
    62  ## Order Content
    63  
    64  Hugo lists render the content based on metadata provided in the [front matter](/content-management/front-matter/)..
    65  
    66  Here are a variety of different ways you can order the content items in
    67  your list templates:
    68  
    69  ### Default: Weight > Date
    70  
    71  {{< code file="layouts/partials/order-default.html" >}}
    72  <ul class="pages">
    73      {{ range .Pages }}
    74          <li>
    75              <h1><a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a></h1>
    76              <time>{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</time>
    77          </li>
    78      {{ end }}
    79  </ul>
    80  {{< /code >}}
    81  
    82  ### By Weight
    83  
    84  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-weight.html" >}}
    85  {{ range .Pages.ByWeight }}
    86      <li>
    87      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
    88      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
    89      </li>
    90  {{ end }}
    91  {{< /code >}}
    92  
    93  ### By Date
    94  
    95  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-date.html" >}}
    96  {{ range .Pages.ByDate }}
    97      <li>
    98      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
    99      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   100      </li>
   101  {{ end }}
   102  {{< /code >}}
   103  
   104  ### By Publish Date
   105  
   106  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-publish-date.html" >}}
   107  {{ range .Pages.ByPublishDate }}
   108      <li>
   109      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   110      <div class="meta">{{ .PublishDate.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   111      </li>
   112  {{ end }}
   113  {{< /code >}}
   114  
   115  ### By Expiration Date
   116  
   117  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-expiry-date.html" >}}
   118  {{ range .Pages.ByExpiryDate }}
   119      <li>
   120      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   121      <div class="meta">{{ .ExpiryDate.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   122      </li>
   123  {{ end }}
   124  {{< /code >}}
   125  
   126  ### By Last Modified Date
   127  
   128  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-last-mod.html" >}}
   129  {{ range .Pages.ByLastmod }}
   130      <li>
   131      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   132      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   133      </li>
   134  {{ end }}
   135  {{< /code >}}
   136  
   137  ### By Length
   138  
   139  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-length.html" >}}
   140  {{ range .Pages.ByLength }}
   141      <li>
   142      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   143      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   144      </li>
   145  {{ end }}
   146  {{< /code >}}
   147  
   148  
   149  ### By Title
   150  
   151  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-title.html" >}}
   152  {{ range .Pages.ByTitle }}
   153      <li>
   154      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   155      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   156      </li>
   157  {{ end }}
   158  {{< /code >}}
   159  
   160  ### By Link Title
   161  
   162  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-link-title.html" >}}
   163  {{ range .Pages.ByLinkTitle }}
   164      <li>
   165      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .LinkTitle }}</a>
   166      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   167      </li>
   168  {{ end }}
   169  {{< /code >}}
   170  
   171  ### By Parameter
   172  
   173  Order based on the specified front matter parameter. Content that does not have the specified front matter field  will use the site's `.Site.Params` default. If the parameter is not found at all in some entries, those entries will appear together at the end of the ordering.
   174  
   175  The below example sorts a list of posts by their rating.
   176  
   177  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-rating.html" >}}
   178  {{ range (.Pages.ByParam "rating") }}
   179    <!-- ... -->
   180  {{ end }}
   181  {{< /code >}}
   182  
   183  If the front matter field of interest is nested beneath another field, you can
   184  also get it:
   185  
   186  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-nested-param.html" >}}
   187  {{ range (.Pages.ByParam "author.last_name") }}
   188    <!-- ... -->
   189  {{ end }}
   190  {{< /code >}}
   191  
   192  ### Reverse Order
   193  
   194  Reversing order can be applied to any of the above methods. The following uses `ByDate` as an example:
   195  
   196  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-date-reverse.html" >}}
   197  {{ range .Pages.ByDate.Reverse }}
   198  <li>
   199  <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   200  <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   201  </li>
   202  {{ end }}
   203  {{< /code >}}
   204  
   205  ## Group Content
   206  
   207  Hugo provides some functions for grouping pages by Section, Type, Date, etc.
   208  
   209  ### By Page Field
   210  
   211  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-page-field.html" >}}
   212  {{ range .Pages.GroupBy "Section" }}
   213  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   214  <ul>
   215      {{ range .Pages }}
   216      <li>
   217      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   218      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   219      </li>
   220      {{ end }}
   221  </ul>
   222  {{ end }}
   223  {{< /code >}}
   224  
   225  ### By Page date
   226  
   227  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-page-date.html" >}}
   228  {{ range .Pages.GroupByDate "2006-01" }}
   229  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   230  <ul>
   231      {{ range .Pages }}
   232      <li>
   233      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   234      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   235      </li>
   236      {{ end }}
   237  </ul>
   238  {{ end }}
   239  {{< /code >}}
   240  
   241  ### By Page publish date
   242  
   243  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-page-publish-date.html" >}}
   244  {{ range .Pages.GroupByPublishDate "2006-01" }}
   245  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   246  <ul>
   247      {{ range .Pages }}
   248      <li>
   249      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   250      <div class="meta">{{ .PublishDate.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   251      </li>
   252      {{ end }}
   253  </ul>
   254  {{ end }}
   255  {{< /code >}}
   256  
   257  ### By Page Param
   258  
   259  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-page-param.html" >}}
   260  {{ range .Pages.GroupByParam "param_key" }}
   261  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   262  <ul>
   263      {{ range .Pages }}
   264      <li>
   265      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   266      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   267      </li>
   268      {{ end }}
   269  </ul>
   270  {{ end }}
   271  {{< /code >}}
   272  
   273  ### By Page Param in Date Format
   274  
   275  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-page-param-as-date.html" >}}
   276  {{ range .Pages.GroupByParamDate "param_key" "2006-01" }}
   277  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   278  <ul>
   279      {{ range .Pages }}
   280      <li>
   281      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   282      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   283      </li>
   284      {{ end }}
   285  </ul>
   286  {{ end }}
   287  {{< /code >}}
   288  
   289  ### Reverse Key Order
   290  
   291  The ordering of the groups is performed by keys in alphanumeric order (A–Z, 1–100) and in reverse chronological order (newest first) for dates.
   292  
   293  While these are logical defaults, they are not always the desired order. There are two different syntaxes to change the order, both of which work the same way. You can use your preferred syntax.
   294  
   295  #### Reverse Method
   296  
   297  ```
   298  {{ range (.Pages.GroupBy "Section").Reverse }}
   299  ```
   300  
   301  ```
   302  {{ range (.Pages.GroupByDate "2006-01").Reverse }}
   303  ```
   304  
   305  
   306  #### Provide the Alternate Direction
   307  
   308  ```
   309  {{ range .Pages.GroupByDate "2006-01" "asc" }}
   310  ```
   311  
   312  ```
   313  {{ range .Pages.GroupBy "Section" "desc" }}
   314  ```
   315  
   316  ### Order Within Groups
   317  
   318  Because Grouping returns a `{{.Key}}` and a slice of pages, all of the ordering methods listed above are available.
   319  
   320  In the following example, groups are ordered chronologically and then content
   321  within each group is ordered alphabetically by title.
   322  
   323  {{< code file="layouts/partials/by-group-by-page.html" >}}
   324  {{ range .Pages.GroupByDate "2006-01" "asc" }}
   325  <h3>{{ .Key }}</h3>
   326  <ul>
   327      {{ range .Pages.ByTitle }}
   328      <li>
   329      <a href="{{ .Permalink }}">{{ .Title }}</a>
   330      <div class="meta">{{ .Date.Format "Mon, Jan 2, 2006" }}</div>
   331      </li>
   332      {{ end }}
   333  </ul>
   334  {{ end }}
   335  {{< /code >}}
   336  
   337  ## Filter and Limiting Lists
   338  
   339  Sometimes you only want to list a subset of the available content. A common request is to only display “Posts” on the homepage. You can accomplish this with the `where` function.
   340  
   341  ### `where`
   342  
   343  `where` works in a similar manner to the `where` keyword in SQL. It selects all elements of the array or slice that match the provided field and value. `where` takes three arguments:
   344  
   345  1. `array` or a `slice of maps or structs`
   346  2. `key` or `field name`
   347  3. `match value`
   348  
   349  {{< code file="layouts/_default/index.html" >}}
   350  {{ range where .Pages "Section" "post" }}
   351     {{ .Content }}
   352  {{ end }}
   353  {{< /code >}}
   354  
   355  ### `first`
   356  
   357  `first` works in a similar manner to the [`limit` keyword in SQL][limitkeyword]. It reduces the array to only the `first N` elements. It takes the array and number of elements as input. `first` takes two arguments:
   358  
   359  1. `array` or `slice of maps or structs`
   360  2. `number of elements`
   361  
   362  {{< code file="layout/_default/section.html" >}}
   363  {{ range first 10 .Pages }}
   364    {{ .Render "summary" }}
   365  {{ end }}
   366  {{< /code >}}
   367  
   368  ### `first` and `where` Together
   369  
   370  Using `first` and `where` together can be very powerful:
   371  
   372  {{< code file="first-and-where-together.html" >}}
   373  {{ range first 5 (where .Pages "Section" "post") }}
   374     {{ .Content }}
   375  {{ end }}
   376  {{< /code >}}
