I was curious about having my blog deployed whenever I push a commit, so after a bit of googling I found this handy tutorial by Mathieu Leplatre.
There were a few differences, I am using the GitHub user pages, where he was using a project page, so my blog output needs to sit on the master branch and not gh-pages.
I'll just show what I had to do differently, so here is my .travis.yml file. I had a few issues with it, but nothing YAML lint and Travis WebLint couldn't sort out.
language: python
python: 2.7
env:
global:
secure: "my-encrypted-token (truncated for size)"
branches:
only:
- source
install:
- "pip install -r requirements.txt"
script:
- "make publish github"
And my modified Makefile
github: publish
cp .travis.yml output/
ghp-import -b master $(OUTPUTDIR)
@git push -fq https://${GH_TOKEN}@github.com/$(TRAVIS_REPO_SLUG).git master > /dev/null
Key differences are the -b master parameter passed to ghp-import which tells it to update the master branch. I also copy my .travis.yml file to the output as it tells Travis only to build the source branch and I don't want it trying to rake my html.
You can see it all on my GitHub page.
