deploy to gh-pages with one command
npm install gh-pages-deploy
Deploy straight to github pages with one simple command.
``install it from npm and symlink it into your PATH
npm install gh-pages-deploy -g
You can also use
npm run to package it with your app without installing it globally.First add this to your scripts section of
package.json:`JSON
"scripts": {
"deploy": "gh-pages-deploy",
"clean-source": "rimraf README.md src webroot package.json"
},
`And then install
gh-pages-deploy as a devDependency:`
npm install gh-pages-deploy --save-dev
`And now you can run
npm run deploy to run the gh-pages-deploy installed in the local node_modules folder (even if you have never done npm install gh-pages-deploy -g).You can also provide a custom commit message via command line argument:
`JSON
"scripts": {
"deploy": "gh-pages-deploy -- 'A custom commit message'",
},
`Options
To configure
gh-pages-deploy all you need to do is specify a couple of things in your package.json (all of which are optional)` JSON
"gh-pages-deploy": {
"staticpath": "dist",
"cname": "nope.org",
"prep": [
"build-sass",
"optimize-img"
],
"commit": "a custom commit message",
"post": [
"clean-source"
],
"noprompt": false
},`* "staticpath" path to your files to be copied over to the root directory
* "cname" content for CNAME file
* "prep" an array of script names to run before pushing to github, this can be
any script that you have declared in your "scripts" object in your
package.json.
* "commit" a custom commit message to be used when committing to git
* "post" an array of script names to run after "prep", but before add/commit/push
* "noprompt" if this is set to true, the prompt will be bypassed and you will never
need to confirm the commands before deploying.About

This was inspired after a conversation with max ogden regarding the setup of
the Code For Portland Jekyll Pages. Inspired by the
leveldb.org repository, I
wanted an easier way for people to generate static pages and deploy to github without
being tied to just jekyll.
