If you'd like to preview what your site looks like before deploying it to the internet, the following
|
|
instructions guide you through installing the proper dependencies to run it locally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install `hugo-obsidian`
|
|
This step will generate the list of backlinks for Hugo to parse. Ensure you have [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) (>= 1.16) installed.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Install and link `hugo-obsidian` locally
|
|
go install github.com/jackyzha0/hugo-obsidian@latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are running into an error saying that `command not found: hugo-obsidian`, make sure you set your `GOPATH` correctly! This will allow your terminal to correctly recognize hugo-obsidian as an executable.
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, start the Hugo server as shown above and your local backlinks and interactive graph should be populated!
|
|
|
|
## Installing Hugo
|
|
Hugo is the static site generator that powers Amethyst. [Install Hugo with "extended" Sass/SCSS version](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/) first. Then,
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Navigate to your local Amethyst folder
|
|
cd <location-of-your-local-amethyst>
|
|
|
|
# Start local server
|
|
make serve
|
|
|
|
# View your site in a browser at http://localhost:1313/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now that you are happy with how your Amethyst instance looks, let's get it hosted!
