See this and this regarding Jekyll's mangling of timestamps
Things to do
- Refactor stories CSS into main stylesheet
- Setup make file deployment to preserve timestamps using this technique?
- Setup Git deployment with detached work tree and post-commit hook — see below
- Setup bittorrent sync or git-annex? for deployment of entire site or of images folder?
- HTTPS and redirect
- Search via JavaScript? Currently using Duck Duck Go.
- Compression of sitemap.xml before uploading?
- Streamlined command for creating post
- Refactor stories section like this
Alternative automatic deployment of stories section with Git
A. Make sure Jekyll and RubyGems are installed on both local and server machines.
B. On local:
~/projects/sg/.git/config:
[core]
repositoryformatversion = 0
filemode = true
bare = false
logallrefupdates = true
ignorecase = true
[remote "origin"]
url = [email protected]:hypertexthero/sg.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master
[remote "deploy"]
url = [email protected]:~/repos/sg.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/deploy/*
[remote "all"]
url = [email protected]:~/repos/sg.git
url = [email protected]:hypertexthero/sg.git
C. On server:
Make sure these folders exist:
~/webapps/sg/stories/~/repos/sg/~/repos/sg.it/
Put the following in ~/repos/sg.it/hooks/post-receive:
#!/bin/sh
GIT_REPO=$HOME/repos/sg.git
TMP_GIT_CLONE=/home/hth/tmp/sg
PUBLIC_WWW=/home/hth/webapps/sg/stories
git clone $GIT_REPO $TMP_GIT_CLONE
jekyll build -s $TMP_GIT_CLONE -d $PUBLIC_WWW
rm -Rf $TMP_GIT_CLONE
exit
Run this command to make it executable:
chmod +x post-receive
D. To deploy:
git add .
git commit -m 'short description of change'
git push all
