Bootstrap is an open-source web development framework originally created by Twitter. It uses a responsive, mobile-first approach that scales seamlessly across different screen sizes. Bootstrap includes an extensive collection of ready-to-use components, such as navigation bars, pagination controls, buttons, and much more. The Hinode theme exposes several of those components as Hugo shortcodes to simplify their usage within markdown content. The below paragraphs illustrate the available shortcodes and how to use them.

Use the carousel shortcode to display a carousel of several images, with behavior similar as the Image Shortcode. The shortcode supports the following arguments:

Argument Required Description
ratio No Aspect ratio of the image, either "1x1", "4x3" (default), "16x9", or "21x9".
class No Optional class attribute of the carousel element, e.g. "w-75".
{.table}

Add an inner img element for each slide of the carousel. The img element supports the following arguments:

Argument Required Description
src Yes Required url of the image, e.g. "img/boots.jpg" or "https://picsum.photos/id/27/3264/1836".
caption No Optional image caption. If set, the image is darkened to improve the contrast. The caption is hidden on smaller screens.
{.table}

As an example, the following shortcode displays a centered carousel with three slides, 16x9 aspect ratio, and a relative width of 67% on large screens.

{{</* carousel ratio="16x9" class="col-sm-12 col-lg-8 mx-auto" */>}}
  {{</* img src="img/coffee.jpg" caption="slide 1" */>}}
  {{</* img src="img/phone.jpg" caption="slide 2" */>}}
  {{</* img src="img/dunes.jpg" caption="slide 3" */>}}
{{</* /carousel */>}}

The result looks like this: {{< carousel ratio="16x9" class="col-sm-12 col-lg-8 mx-auto" >}} {{< img src="img/coffee.jpg" caption="slide 1" >}} {{< img src="img/phone.jpg" caption="slide 2" >}} {{< img src="img/dunes.jpg" caption="slide 3" >}} {{< /carousel >}}

Command Prompt Shortcode

The command shortcode generates terminal output for either bash, powershell, or sql shell languages. The shortcode supports the following arguments:

Argument Required Description
user No Optional user to add to the prompt, e.g. "user".
host No Optional host to add to the prompt, e.g. "localhost".
prompt No Optional prompt override, e.g. "PS C:\Users\User>".
shell No Type of shell, either "bash" (default), "powershell", or "sql".
{.table}

Bash (default shell)

Use the command shortcode to generate a block with a default bash command prompt.

{{%/* command */%}}
export MY_VAR=123
{{%/* /command */%}}

The result looks like this: {{% command %}} export MY_VAR=123 {{% /command %}}

Specify user and host to add the user context to the prompt. In addition, use (out) to specify an output line and use \ to denote a line continuation.

{{%/* command user="user" host="localhost" */%}}
export MY_VAR=123
echo "hello"
(out)hello
echo one \
two \
three
(out)one two three
echo "goodbye"
(out)goodbye
{{%/* /command */%}}

The result looks like this: {{% command user="user" host="localhost" %}} export MY_VAR=123 echo "hello" (out)hello echo one
two
three (out)one two three echo "goodbye" (out)goodbye {{% /command %}}

PowerShell

Set the shell argument to powershell to generate a PowerShell terminal. Override the prompt to add a directory if needed. Use the backtick ` symbol to denote a line continuation.

{{%/* command prompt="PS C:\Users\User>" shell="powershell" */%}}
Write-Host `
'Hello' `
'from' `
'PowerShell!'
(out)Hello from PowerShell!
Write-Host 'Goodbye from PowerShell!'
(out)Goodbye from PowerShell!
{{%/* /command */%}}

The result looks like this: {{% command prompt="PS C:\Users\User>" shell="powershell" %}} Write-Host 'Hello' 'from' ` 'PowerShell!' (out)Hello from PowerShell! Write-Host 'Goodbye from PowerShell!' (out)Goodbye from PowerShell! {{% /command %}}

SQL

Set the shell argument to sql to generate a SQL terminal. Use the (con) suffix to denote a line continuation.

{{%/* command prompt="mysql>" shell="sql" */%}}
set @my_var = 'foo';
set @my_other_var = 'bar';
CREATE TABLE people ((con)
first_name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,(con)
last_name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL(con)
);
(out)Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.09 sec)
insert into people(con)
values ('John', 'Doe');
(out)Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec)
select *(con)
from people(con)
order by last_name;
(out)+------------+-----------+
(out)| first_name | last_name |
(out)+------------+-----------+
(out)| John       | Doe       |
(out)+------------+-----------+
(out)1 row in set (0.00 sec)
{{%/* /command */%}}

The result looks like this: {{% command prompt="mysql>" shell="sql" %}} set @my_var = 'foo'; set @my_other_var = 'bar'; CREATE TABLE people ((con) first_name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,(con) last_name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL(con) ); (out)Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.09 sec) insert into people(con) values ('John', 'Doe'); (out)Query OK, 1 row affected (0.02 sec) select *(con) from people(con) order by last_name; (out)+------------+-----------+ (out)| first_name | last_name | (out)+------------+-----------+ (out)| John | Doe | (out)+------------+-----------+ (out)1 row in set (0.00 sec) {{% /command %}}

Image Shortcode

Use the image shortcode to display a responsive image with a specific aspect ratio. The source link can refer to either an image available in the /assets/img folder of your site or a public web location. The shortcode renders the image as a so-called image set to optimize the image for different screen sizes and resolutions. Behind the scenes, Hugo renders the images in WebP format and stores them in a local folder (resources or public). The images are processed using the quality setting specified in the [imaging] section of the main config file (defaults to 75). Supported image types are .png, .jpeg, .gif, .tiff, .bmp, and .webp. A fallback image of type .jpeg is provided for older browsers.The shortcode supports the following arguments:

Argument Required Description
src Yes Required url of the image, e.g. "img/boots.jpg" or "https://picsum.photos/id/27/3264/1836".
ratio No Optional aspect ratio of the image, either "1x1", "4x3", "16x9", or "21x9". It not specified the original aspect ratio of the image is preserved.
class No Optional class attribute of the inner img element, e.g. "rounded".
title No Optional alternate text of the image.
caption No Optional figure caption.
{.table}

As an example, the following shortcode displays an image with rounded corners and a 21x9 aspect ratio.

{{</* image src="img/flowers.jpg" ratio="21x9" caption="Figure caption" class="rounded" */>}}

The result looks like this: {{< image src="img/flowers.jpg" ratio="21x9" caption="Figure caption" class="rounded">}}
