This image contains Hugo and its optional runtime dependencies: Asciidoctor, Dart Sass, Git, Go, Node.js, Pandoc, and Rst2html. It also contains the standard and extended editions of Pagefind, a static search library by Cloud Cannon.

To run the container in your development environment:

1. Create an alias in $HOME/.bash_aliases:

   alias dhugo='docker run --rm -v .:/project -v $HOME/.cache/hugo_cache:/cache -u $(id -u):$(id -g) --network host veriphor/hugo hugo'
   

   By aliasing the docker command to dhugo instead of hugo you can use your existing installation and this image side-by-side.

2. Source the changes to your alias file and create the cache directory:

   source $HOME/.bash_aliases
   mkdir -p $HOME/.cache/hugo_cache
   

3. Navigate to your project directory, then view or build your site:

   dhugo server  # view
   dhugo         # build
   

To display a list of installed applications:

docker run --rm veriphor/hugo info

The container can access two directories on the host: the current working directory and $HOME/.cache/hugo_cache. This intentional confinement imposes the following restrictions:

1. You must run hugo from the root of the project directory; you cannot use the --source flag.
2. You cannot run hugo deploy due to lack of access to service credentials typically stored in your $HOME directory.

The project cache, both local (the resources directory) and user ($HOME/.cache/hugo_cache) is persistent.

This image also contains Python 3 (a dependency of Rs2html) and Ruby (a dependency of Asciidoctor).
