Installation

This package requires at least GNU Emacs 26.3 and Org Mode 9.0. It is available on Melpa (https://melpa.org/#/ox-hugo), and it’s recommended to install this package from Melpa (​not Melpa Stable).

You will need to require the package after installing it to get the ox-hugo export options in the Org Export Dispatcher menu (the one you see when you hit C-c C-e to initiate any export).

You can do that by adding the below to your config:

(with-eval-after-load 'ox
  (require 'ox-hugo))

Use Package #

If you use use-package, you can do the below instead:

(use-package ox-hugo
  :ensure t   ;Auto-install the package from Melpa
  :pin melpa  ;`package-archives' should already have ("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/")
  :after ox)

Spacemacs #

Spacemacs users can use ox-hugo by setting the variable org-enable-hugo-support.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
              '((org :variables
                  org-enable-hugo-support t)))

This was verified to work on Spacemacs develop branch (ref).
