# reveal-hugo

A Hugo theme for creating [Reveal.js](https://revealjs.com/) presentations that allows you to put multiple slides in the same markdown file. It also allows you to create multiple presentations in the same project.

The motivation behind creating this theme is pretty simple - I didn't want to have to manage one markdown file for every slide, which would add the overhead of coming up with a file name, setting a `weight` param in the front matter to keep it in order, etc, all for just a few lines of text. Instead, I like to organize groups of slides into a smaller number of markdown files, each representing a section of the presentation.

### Example

Using reveal-hugo, a three-slide (or n-slide) presentation can be created with just one markdown file, like so:

```markdown
# English
Hello.

---

# Français
Salu.

---

# Espagñol
Hola.
```

The only requirement is to demarcate slides with `---` surrounded by newlines.

# Demo

Visit [https://dzello.com/reveal-hugo/](https://dzello.com/reveal-hugo/) to see an presentation created with this theme that shows more ways to use it. You can also check out this repository [running on Netlify](https://reveal-hugo.netlify.com/).

# Usage

To create the default presentation (the one that will live at the site root), the theme will look for a `content/_index.md` file and any pages that have a type of `home`. That means they're in a `home` directory in the `content` folder OR the type is manually set to `home` in the front matter.

```toml
type = 'home'
```

Use the `weight` param in the front matter to specify the order that the pages should appear in the presentation.

```toml
weight = 20
```

### Section presentations

To create more presentations in the same repository, place the content into sections. Section presentations will include content from each file in that section including an `_index.md` file if it exists. Again, use the `weight` param to order the sections (`_index.md` will always be first).

Section presentations can use a different Reveal.js theme by specifying the `reveal_theme` parameter in the front matter of the section's `_index.md` file.

```toml
reveal_theme = "noir"
```

### Fragments

Fragments are a Reveal.js concept that lets you introduce content into each slide incrementally. Borrowing the concept from [hugo-theme-revealjs](https://github.com/RealOrangeOne/hugo-theme-revealjs), you can use a `fragment` shortcode to accomplish this in reveal-hugo in the same way.

```markdown
# Let's count to three...
{{% fragment %}} One {{% /fragment %}}
{{% fragment %}} Two {{% /fragment %}}
{{% fragment %}} Three {{% /fragment %}}
```


# Configuration

- `params.reveal_theme`: The Reveal.js theme used, defaults to "black"
