The `.File` object contains the following fields:
|
|
|
|
.File.Path
|
|
: the original relative path of the page, relative to the content dir (e.g., `posts/foo.en.md`)
|
|
|
|
.File.LogicalName
|
|
: the name of the content file that represents a page (e.g., `foo.en.md`)
|
|
|
|
.File.TranslationBaseName
|
|
: the filename without extension or optional language identifier (e.g., `foo`)
|
|
|
|
.File.ContentBaseName
|
|
: is a either TranslationBaseName or name of containing folder if file is a leaf bundle.
|
|
|
|
.File.BaseFileName
|
|
: the filename without extension (e.g., `foo.en`)
|
|
|
|
.File.Ext
|
|
: the file extension of the content file (e.g., `md`); this can also be called using `.File.Extension` as well. Note that it is *only* the extension without `.`.
|
|
|
|
.File.Lang
|
|
: the language associated with the given file if Hugo's [Multilingual features][multilingual] are enabled (e.g., `en`)
|
|
|
|
.File.Dir
|
|
: given the path `content/posts/dir1/dir2/`, the relative directory path of the content file will be returned (e.g., `posts/dir1/dir2/`). Note that the path separator (`\` or `/`) could be dependent on the operating system.
|
|
|
|
.File.UniqueID
|
|
: the MD5-checksum of the content file's path.
