gohugoio/hugo v0.119.0

on GitHub

This version is built with Go 1.21.1 which contains some relevant security fixes for the html/template package, see Issue 62196 and Issue 62197. This is the main reason Hugo 0.119.0 is released sooner rather than later. But this release also comes with a dependency refresh and some useful image processing improvements:

• A new general-purpose Process method and filter.
• A new Opacity filter.

Process support all of the existing scaling operations, but it can also be used do simple format conversions (e.g. from JPG to PNG). A before/after example:

{{ $watermark := resources.Get "logo.jpg" | images.Filter  
       (images.GaussianBlur 6) 
       (images.Opacity 0.5) 
}}
{{ $watermark = $watermark.Resize (printf "%dx%d png" $watermark.Width $watermark.Height )

There are some issues with the above:

1. The source image does not support transparency, so the transparency pixels will be filled with the configured background colour.
2. The image will be decoded and encoded twice with a potential loss in quality.
3. It's clumsy.

With Hugo 0.119.0 the above can be written as:

{{ $watermark := resources.Get "logo.jpg" | images.Filter  
       (images.GaussianBlur 6) 
       (images.Opacity 0.5) 
       (images.Process "png") 
}}
