||
Hugo is written in [Go][] with support for multiple platforms.
|
||
|
||
The latest release can be found at [Hugo Releases](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases).
|
||
We currently provide pre-built binaries for
|
||
<i class="fa fa-windows"></i> Windows,
|
||
<i class="fa fa-linux"></i> Linux,
|
||
<i class="fa freebsd-19px"></i> FreeBSD
|
||
and <i class="fa fa-apple"></i> OS X
|
||
for x64 and i386 architectures.
|
||
|
||
Hugo may also be compiled from source wherever the Go compiler tool chain can run, e.g. for ARM architecture and for other operating systems including DragonFly BSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Plan 9 and Solaris. See http://golang.org/doc/install/source for the full set of supported combinations of target operating systems and compilation architectures.
|
||
|
||
## Installing Hugo (binary)
|
||
|
||
Installation is very easy. Simply download the appropriate version for your
|
||
platform from [Hugo Releases](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases).
|
||
Once downloaded it can be run from anywhere. You don't need to install
|
||
it into a global location. This works well for shared hosts and other systems
|
||
where you don't have a privileged account.
|
||
|
||
Ideally, you should install it somewhere in your `PATH` for easy use.
|
||
`/usr/local/bin` is the most probable location.
|
||
|
||
On OS X, if you have [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/), installation is even
|
||
easier: just run `brew install hugo`.
|
||
|
||
### Installing Pygments (optional)
|
||
|
||
The Hugo executable has one *optional* external dependency for source code highlighting (Pygments).
|
||
|
||
If you want to have source code highlighting using the [highlight shortcode](/extras/highlighting/),
|
||
you need to install the Python-based Pygments program. The procedure is outlined on the [Pygments home page](http://pygments.org/).
|
||
|
||
## Upgrading Hugo
|
||
|
||
Upgrading Hugo is as easy as downloading and replacing the executable you’ve
|
||
placed in your `PATH`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Installing from source
|
||
|
||
### Prerequisite tools for downloading and building source code
|
||
|
||
* [Git](http://git-scm.com/)
|
||
* [Mercurial](http://mercurial.selenic.com/)
|
||
* [Go][] 1.3+ (Go 1.4+ on Windows, see Go [Issue #8090](https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=8090))
|
||
|
||
### Get directly from GitHub
|
||
|
||
$ export GOPATH=$HOME/go
|
||
$ go get -v github.com/spf13/hugo
|
||
|
||
`go get` will then fetch Hugo and all its dependent libraries to your
|
||
`$GOPATH/src` directory, and compile everything into the final `hugo`
|
||
(or `hugo.exe`) executable, which you will find sitting in the
|
||
`$GOPATH/bin/` directory, all ready to go!
|
||
|
||
You may run `go get` with the `-u` option to update Hugo's dependencies:
|
||
|
||
$ go get -u -v github.com/spf13/hugo
