Hugo provides the ability to traverse your website's files on your server, including the local Hugo server. You can access file-system-related data for a piece of content via the .File variable.

{{% note "Rendering Local Files" %}} For information on creating shortcodes and templates that tap into Hugo's file-related feature set, see Local File Templates. {{% /note %}}

The .File object contains the following fields:

.File.Path

the original relative path of the page (e.g., content/posts/foo.en.md)

.File.LogicalName

the name of the content file that represents a page (e.g., foo.en.md)

.File.TranslationBaseName

the filename without extension or optional language identifier (e.g., foo)

.File.BaseFileName

the filename without extension (e.g., foo.en)

.File.Ext

the file extension of the content file (e.g., md); this can also be called using .File.Extension as well. Note that it is only the extension without ..

.File.Lang

the language associated with the given file if Hugo's Multilingual features are enabled (e.g., en)

.File.Dir

given the path content/posts/dir1/dir2/, the relative directory path of the content file will be returned (e.g., posts/dir1/dir2/)
