hyas/docs broken on Netlify about hyas HOT 5 CLOSED

@sean-pwd, thanks for reporting this.

NPM scripts do not work on windows

I can't reproduce this (using both starter theme + child theme)

Site runs locally but is broken on netlify

I've noticed that too. Netlify doesn't work as expected, running Hugo from a bin directory. It's a Netlify caching thing. ("Clear cache and deploy site" will make it run OK).

However, that's not really workable. So, for now (I will raise an issue w/ Netlify), we better use Netlify for running Hugo — edit ./netlify.toml:

1. Add a Hugo version (preferably the one you're using locally):

   [build.environment]
     NODE_VERSION = "16.3.0"
     NPM_VERSION = "7.16.0"
     HUGO_VERSION = "0.84.4"

2. Replace all instances of exec-bin bin/hugo/hugo w/ hugo

That's it (no need to edit ./package.json)! Now the Netlify deployment process will run as expected — after clearing the Netlify cache (once only):

I will (temporarily) update Hyas for this. Hope this helps!

Thanks for having a look. I will clone hyas to a new repository after you have updated it so I cant test the new config.
I re-cloned the repository and it worked fine running from the bin folder. I'm not sure why it failed the first time

hugo-installer now installs in node_modules/.bin/hugo — this folder is cached by Netlify.

Some tests:

• Initial Netlify deploy (runs npm i) of h-enk/hyas takes 53s: https://app.netlify.com/sites/hyas/deploys/6126512d6745b9e20afaa832
• Repeat Netlify deploy (using cached node_modules folder) of h-enk/hyas takes 26s: https://app.netlify.com/sites/hyas/deploys/612651067266a00007c66091
