## Installation
*First of all, you will need to [install Hugo](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-1-install-hugo) and
[create new site](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/#step-2-create-a-new-site). Also, you have git installed
on your machine and you are familiar with basic git usage. After that, you ready to install **Binario**.*
There are three different ways you can install **Binario**. Choose one of the installation methods listed below and
follow the instructions.
- **A**. [Git clone](#option-a-git-clone)
- **B**. [Git submodule](#option-b-git-submodule)
- **C**. [Download ZIP and manual install](#option-c-download-zip-and-manual-install)
*For more information read the "[Install and Use Themes](https://gohugo.io/themes/installing-and-using-themes/)"*.
### Option A. Git clone
In your Hugo site directory, run:
```
git clone https://github.com/vimux/binario themes/binario
```
Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:
```
theme = "binario"
```
### Option B. Git submodule
In your Hugo site directory, run:
```
git submodule add https://github.com/vimux/binario themes/binario
```
Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:
```
theme = "binario"
```
*You can [read the GitHub documentation for submodules](https://github.com/blog/2104-working-with-submodules) or those
found on [Git's website](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules) for more information*
### Option C. Download ZIP and manual install
**[Download ZIP](https://github.com/vimux/binario/archive/master.zip)** and extract to the `themes/binario` within your
Hugo website.
Next, edit your `config.toml` configuration file and add parameter:
```
theme = "binario"
```
***
You can run your site in Hugo server mode:
```
hugo server
```
Now you can go to [localhost:1313](http://localhost:1313) webpage and the Binario theme should be visible.
After you make sure that **Binario** works, you may start customizing the theme if it's needed. You can change
[number of columns](#columns), activate [footer social icons](#footer-social-icons), [share buttons](#share-buttons) and
[much more](#configuration-options).
## Configuration
Hugo uses the `config.toml`, `config.yaml`, or `config.json` (if found in the site root) as the default site config
file. Here is Binario configuration example in TOML with all available theme-specific config params:
### Config.toml example

"[Configure Hugo](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration)" from Hugo official documentation.
### Front Matter example
Hugo supports three formats for front matter: `yaml`, `toml` and `json`. Here is Front Matter example in YAML:
```yaml
---
# Common-Defined params
title: "Example article title"
date: "2017-08-21"
lastmod: "2018-12-21"
description: "Example article description"
categories:
- "Category 1"
- "Category 2"
tags:
- "Tag"
- "Another tag"
menu: main # Add page to a menu. Options: main, footer
# Theme-Defined params
comments: true # Enable/disable Disqus comments for specific post
authorbox: true # Enable/disable Authorbox for specific post
toc: true # Enable/disable Table of Contents for specific post
mathjax: true # Enable/disable MathJax for specific post
related: true # Enable/disable Related content for specific post
---
```
For more information about front matter variables and formats read
"[Hugo Front Matter](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter)" from Hugo official documentation.
### Configuration options
Binario includes some customizable configuration options that may be useful.
#### Columns
By default, Binario works with two columns card layout (if it possible by screen size) for list pages, but you can also
use one or three columns layout. Change `Params.columns`to preferable value (from 1 to 3). You can also change this
option for specific list pages in frontmatter params.
#### Custom CSS
If you want to include custom CSS files, you need to assign an array of references in site config file
(`config.toml` by default) like following:
```toml
[Params]
customCSS = ["css/custom.css"]
```
Of course, you can reference as many CSS files as you want. Their paths need to be relative to the `static` folder of
your Hugo site:
```toml
[Params]
customCSS = ["css/custom.css", "css/another.css"]
```
All custom CSS files will be added in the `head` section of a `baseof.html` right after the built-in CSS file.
#### Custom JS
You can add custom JavaScript files by assigning an array of references in site config file (`config.toml` by default)
like following:
```toml
[Params]
customJS = ["js/custom.js"]
```
And of course, just like with custom CSS, you can reference as many JS files as you want. Their paths need to be
relative to the `static` folder of your Hugo site:
```toml
[Params]
customJS = ["js/custom.js", "js/another.js"]
```
All custom JS files will be added before closing body tag of a `baseof.html` file.
#### Post Meta
You may activate post meta fields with `.Site.Params.post_meta` parameter.
#### Related Content
Binario uses default Related Content Hugo feature to provide "See Also"-like section. You can activate "Related Content"
section with `.Site.Params.related` parameter.
More information available at [Hugo Related Content](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter)
#### Share Buttons
To display share buttons, set up `[Params.Share]` specific parameters in your site config file.
Available share buttons: Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Telegram, LinkedIn, VK, Pocket
#### Thumbnail Image
You can add thumbnail image to your content page. Just put `thumbnail.*` image file in
[page bundle](https://gohugo.io/content-management/page-bundles/).
#### Footer Social Icons
With Binario, you have the option to display social icons in the footer. To display them, set up `[Params.Social]`
specific parameters in your site config file.
Available social services: Email, Facebook, Twitter, Telegram, Instagram, Pinterest, VK, LinkedIn, GitHub, GitLab,
Stack Overflow, Mastodon, Medium
#### Web App Manifest
[Web App Manifest](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/web-app-manifest/) is a simple json file with basic
site info like name, description, icons, etc. This file tells the browser about your web application and how it should
behave when "installed" (as PWA) on the users mobile device or desktop.
To activate Web App Manifest, define `MANIFEST` as custom output format and include this for `home` Kind attribute in
your site config file. Here's how to make it.
First of all, you should define `MANIFEST` custom output format [`config.toml`]:
```toml
[outputFormats]
[outputFormats.MANIFEST]
mediaType = "application/json"
baseName = "manifest"
isPlainText = true
notAlternative = true
```
Then, include `MANIFEST` output format for `home` Kind attribute [`config.toml`]:
```toml
[outputs]
home = ["HTML", "RSS", "MANIFEST"]
```
After that, Web App Manifest file will be generated. Still, it's better to specify `[Params.Manifest]` params to make
sure that everything works as expected.
| Web App Manifest Property | `.Site.Params.Manifest` Key | Default Value | Type |
| ------------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------- | ----------- |
| name | name | `.Site.Title` | required |
| short_name | shortName | `.Site.Title` | required |
| display | display | `browser` | required |
| start_url | startUrl | `/` | required |
| background_color | backgroundColor | `#2a2a2a` | recommended |
| theme_color | themeColor | `#1b1b1b` | recommended |
| description | description | | recommended |
| orientation | orientation | | recommended |
| scope | scope | | recommended |
| icons\* | | | required |
\* You can't customize manifest icons through config params, only replacing `icons/192.png` and `icons/512.png` files.
---
*To verify that your manifest file is configured properly and works well, run Hugo server and open
Chrome DevTools (Press F12 in Chrome) → Application → Manifest*
*If you use Apache as a web server, you may have difficulty accessing files in the icons folder within your root dir.
