Python library for converting jekyll md files to Hugo.

Project description

Jekyll to Hugo Converter

Jekyll to Hugo Converter is a simple tool to convert Jekyll posts to Hugo posts.

I've used this tool to convert my blog from WordPress to Jekyll and finally to Hugo.

The tool has the following features:

  • Batch conversion.
  • Post header fields drop/ignore.
  • Links rewrite. (Search and Replace)
  • Author name rewrite.

It was written in a way that is easy to extend, while I wrote it for my own personal use, I hope you'll find some use for it as well.

Note: This tool is not perfect, it will not convert everything. If you find a bug, please open a PR.

Usage

PiPy or Pipx

If you have Python installed, you can use the following commands:

pip install jekyll-to-hugo
jekyll-to-hugo

You will need to create a config.yaml file in the current directory. See example here.

pipx is a tool to install Python CLI tools in isolated environments

Python From Source

If you have Python installed, you can use the following commands:

pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 jekyll-to-hugo.py <jekyll_post_path> <hugo_post_path>

To change the config, edit config.yaml.

The configuration file path can be configured with the CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

Docker

If you don't have Python installed, you can use Docker:

  1. Build the image.
docker build -t jekyll-to-hugo -f ./docker/Dockerfile .
  1. Run the image. You will need to mount the following directories: config file, Jekyll posts directory, Hugo posts directory.
docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/app jekyll-to-hugo

The configuration file is a YAML file. See example here. The configuration file path can be configured with the CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
