Pick Up the Blog Again

Introduction

When I got a new computer and was bored, it occurred to me that I hadn’t updated my blog for a long time, so here is this post.

Analysis

Looking back at the blog, it uses hugo framework, and the source code is still in my GitHub repository, so I need to use Git to clone the project, and then since it is a blog of Hugo framework, I need to install Hugo**, the image is stored in SMMS website, no need to download it.

Install Git

There is nothing to say about installing Git, it is installed in D disk, the address is as follows: Git Installation Address, always default to the next step on the line.

Configure your username and email

After the installation is complete, you need to configure your username and email.

Why do I need to configure my username and email?

This information is used every time git commits, and it is recommended that you use the same GitHub username and email address.

1
2


$ git config --global user.name "abc" 
$ git config --global user.email "[email protected]" 

** –global** means that this command works globally, i.e. all projects will use this username and email.

Setting up SSH

Right mouse button, click on Git Bash and type the following command:

1

ssh-keygen -t rsa

You can go all the way back to the Enter key, or you can set up the storage location D:\Programs\Git\.ssh\id_rsa as shown in the picture below. (You need to create your own folder D:\Programs\Git\.ssh to be able to)

Setting up SSH and modifying the storage location

Configuring the proxy

Since the operation may fail or be slowed down due to the network when clone is performed, we set up a proxy here.

Open the C:\Users\ your username folder, find the .gitconfig file, and add the following:

1
2
3
4
5
6


[http] 
 proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1234 
[https] 
 proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1234 
[git] 
 proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:1234 

Bind to Github

Open Github, click on the avatar, click on Settings, click on SSH and GPG keys and add a new SSH key.

End of installing Git

Installing Hugo

The Winget installation method is used here.

Winget

Winget is Microsoft’s official free and open-source package manager for Windows. To install the extended edition of Hugo:

1

winget install Hugo.Hugo.Extended

To uninstall the extended edition of Hugo:

1

winget uninstall --name "Hugo (Extended)"

Note!

If you are a Windows user:

Do not use command prompt (cmd).

Do not use Windows PowerShell.

Run these commands in PowerShell or a Linux terminal (such as WSL or Git Bash).

PowerShell and Windows PowerShell are different applications.

If you happen to be using vscode, you can set it up like this:

End of installing Hugo

Now that all the preliminaries are done, feel free to blog!
