GitHub Actions for deploying to GitHub Pages
A GitHub Action to deploy your static site to GitHub Pages with Static Site Generators (Hugo, MkDocs, Gatsby, GitBook, etc.)
Table of Contents
Getting started
(1) Add ssh deploy key
Generate your deploy key with the following command.
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "$(git config user.email)" -f gh-pages -N ""
# You will get 2 files:
# gh-pages.pub (public key)
# gh-pages (private key)
Next, Go to Repository Settings
- Go to Deploy Keys and add your public key with the Allow write access
- Go to Secrets and add your private key as
ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY
(2) Create .github/workflows/gh-pages.yml
⭐ Repository type - Project
An example workflow for Hugo.
name: github pages
on:
push:
branches:
- master
jobs:
build-deploy:
runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: Setup Hugo
uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2.1.0
with:
hugo-version: '0.58.2'
- name: Build
run: hugo --gc --minify --cleanDestinationDir
- name: Deploy
uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v2.3.1
env:
ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY: ${{ secrets.ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY }}
PUBLISH_BRANCH: gh-pages
PUBLISH_DIR: ./public
The above example is for Project Pages sites. (<username>/<project_name> repository)
⭐ Repository type - User and Organization
For User and Organization Pages sites (<username>/<username>.github.io repository),
we have to set master branch to PUBLISH_BRANCH.
on:
push:
branches:
- source # default branch
PUBLISH_BRANCH: master # deploying branch
Options
⭐ Pull action image from Docker Hub
You can pull a public docker image from Docker Hub.
By pulling docker images, you can reduce the overall execution time of your workflow. In addition, latest tag is provided.
- uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v2.3.1
+ uses: docker://peaceiris/gh-pages:v2.3.1
⭐ PERSONAL_TOKEN
Generate a personal access token (repo) and add it to Secrets as PERSONAL_TOKEN, it works as well as ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY.
- ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY: ${{ secrets.ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY }}
+ PERSONAL_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PERSONAL_TOKEN }}
⭐ GITHUB_TOKEN
NOTES: This action supports
GITHUB_TOKENbut it has some problems to deploy to GitHub Pages. See #9
- ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY: ${{ secrets.ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY }}
+ GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
⭐ Suppressing empty commits
By default, a commit will always be generated and pushed to the PUBLISH_BRANCH, even if nothing changed. If you want to suppress this behavior, set the optional parameter emptyCommits to false. cf. Issue #21
For example:
- name: deploy
uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v2.3.1
env:
ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY: ${{ secrets.ACTIONS_DEPLOY_KEY }}
PUBLISH_BRANCH: gh-pages
PUBLISH_DIR: ./public
with:
emptyCommits: false
Tips and FAQ
How to add CNAME
Most of the Static Site Generators support CNAME as a static file.
The same may be said of other files (.nojekyll, BingSiteAuth.xml, robots.txt, etc.). It is better to manage those files by Static Site Generators.
Deployment completed but you cannot read
Does your PUBLISH_DIR contain files or directories that name starts with an underscore? (_modules, _sources and _next, etc.)
GitHub Pages does not read those by default.
Please add .nojekyll file to PUBLISH_DIR.
It is now possible to completely bypass Jekyll processing on GitHub Pages by creating a file named
.nojekyllin the root of your pages repo and pushing it to GitHub. This should only be necessary if your site uses files or directories that start with underscores since Jekyll considers these to be special resources and does not copy them to the final site.
