## Editing
|
|
Amethyst runs on top of [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/) so all notes are written in [Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/getting-started/).
|
|
|
|
### Folder Structure
|
|
Here's a rough overview of what's what.
|
|
|
|
**All notes you want to publish should go in the `/content` folder.** To make edits, you can open any of the files and make changes directly and save it. You can organize content into any subfolder you'd like.
|
|
|
|
**To edit the main home page, open `/content/_index.md`.**
|
|
|
|
To create a link between notes in your garden, just create a normal link using Markdown pointing to the document in question. Please note that **all links should be relative to the root `/content` path**.
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
For example, I want to link this current document to `setup/config.md`.
|
|
[A link to the config page](setup/config.md)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you can put local images anywhere in the `/content` folder.
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
Example image (source is in content/setup/images/example.png)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also use wikilinks if that is what you are more comfortable with!
|
|
|
|
### Front Matter
|
|
Hugo is picky when it comes to metadata for files. Make sure that your title is double-quoted and that you have a title defined at the top of your file in the front matter like so. You can also add tags here as well.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
title: "Example Title"
|
|
tags:
|
|
- example-tag
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Rest of your content here...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can specify additional params in the front matter of individual pages:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
# Set type to 'docs' if you want to render page outside of configured section or if you render section other than 'docs'
|
|
type = 'docs'
|
|
|
|
# Set page weight to re-arrange items in file-tree menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
|
|
weight = 10
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set to 'true' to mark page as flat section in file-tree menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
|
|
bookFlatSection = false
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set to hide nested sections or pages at that level. Works only with file-tree menu mode
|
|
bookCollapseSection = true
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set true to hide page or section from side menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
|
|
bookHidden = false
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set 'false' to hide ToC from page
|
|
bookToC = true
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) If you have enabled BookComments for the site, you can disable it for specific pages.
|
|
bookComments = true
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set to 'false' to exclude page from search index.
|
|
bookSearchExclude = true
|
|
|
|
# (Optional) Set explicit href attribute for this page in a menu (if BookMenuBundle not set)
|
|
bookHref = ''
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Obsidian
|
|
Amethyst is built especially for use with [Obsidian](http://obsidian.md/) as a text editor.
|

|
## Previewing Changes
|
|
This step is purely optional and mostly for those who want to see the published version of their digital garden locally before opening it up to the internet. This is *highly recommended* but not required.
|
|
|
|
> 👀 Step 4: [Preview Changes](setup/preview%20changes.md)
|
|
|
|
For those who like to live life more on the edge, viewing the garden through Obsidian gets you pretty close to the real thing.
|
|
|
|
## Publishing Changes
|
|
After you've finished editing your notes, you can publish them to the internet!
