Requirements

Hugo 0.51+ is the only requirement. (Install Hugo).

Installation

The fastest installation method is to run the quick install script:

wget -qO- https://codeberg.org/vhs/after-dark/raw/branch/trunk/bin/install | sh

Quick Install is ideal for first-time users and does not require use of git. Quick install will help you create and configure your site, install an example After Dark module, and generate a welcome post and online help documentation for offline use.

By convention After Dark may also be used with an existing Hugo site by git cloning to or adding as a submodule:

hugo-site
├── static
└── themes
    └── after-dark # git clone or submodule

See Install a Single Theme on the Hugo docs site for additional instructions.

After Dark releases are tagged in git and packaged on NPM. Use the NPM package to integrate After Dark into existing workflows.

Usage

Run the online help server after installing for detailed instructions:

./themes/after-dark/bin/help

See the Hugo docs as well. There's also a Hugo community forum in case you get stuck.

Upgrading

Run the Upgrade Script to check for updates and upgrade automatically:

./themes/after-dark/bin/upgrade

Upgrading replaces the file contents of the theme as a whole for security reasons. If you wish to modify the source please create a fork.

Verifying

If installed or upgraded via script you may use the Release Validator to verify you're running a PGP-signed and SHA-verified release. Integrity is checked at the source level and may be performed offline. See Release Hashes for more info.
