Deployment tool for Hugo
The following installation assumes Golang is installed on your remote server.
- Install Hugo on your remote server inside
$HOME/bin: https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases - Create a bare git repo:
git init --bare /path/to/example.com.git - Compile this tool into your hooks directory:
go build -o /path/to/example.com.git/hooks/post-receive huggo.go(if Go is not installed on remote server, you may be able to cross-compile and upload the resulting binary) - Add the remote to your local git setup:
git remote add deploy username@host:/path/to/example.com.git - When you're ready to deploy the master branch (swap out branch as necessary), run
git push deploy master. Don't forget to push to any other remotes (e.g., GitHub) to ensure your source code is centralized!
If you're using NearlyFreeSpeech, /path/to/example.com.git can become ~/example.com.git and the tilde expansion of ~ will yield a final path of /home/private/example.com.git. This even applies to adding the remote!
