Publishing your site
现在, 您应该有一个 站点, 并在本地运行 。 一旦您有了 自定义 的喜好, 就该发布它了。 Docusaurus 生成一个静态 HTML 网站, 它可以由您喜爱的 web 服务器或在线托管解决方案提供服务。
生成静态网页
要创建网站的静态生成, 请从 网站
目录中运行以下脚本:
yarn run build # 或是 `npm run build`
这将在 website
目录下生成一个 build
文件夹, 其中包含 website
目录下所有文档和其他页面中所含的 .html
文件。
托管静态网页
此时,您会在 website/build
目录中得到所有的文件,并将它们复制到您青睐的 Web 服务器的 html
目录中。
For example, both Apache and Nginx serve content from
/var/www/html
by default. 也就是说,选择 web 服务端或提供相应服务都超出了Docusaurus 的范围。
当您使用自己的 web 服务端时,请确保 web 服务端使用了合适的 HTTP headers 为静态资源文件提供服务。 CSS 文件 header 中的
content-type
应该是text/css
。 In the case of Nginx, this would mean settinginclude /etc/nginx/mime.types;
in yournginx.conf
file. See this issue for more info.
Hosting on a Service:
Using Vercel
Deploying your Docusaurus project to Vercel will provide you with various benefits in the areas of performance and ease of use.
Most importantly, however, deploying a Docusaurus project only takes a couple of seconds:
- First, install their command-line interface:
npm i -g vercel
- Run a single command inside the root directory of your project:
vercel
That's all. Your docs will automatically be deployed.
Note that the directory structure Now supports is slightly different from the default directory structure of a Docusaurus project - The
docs
directory has to be within thewebsite
directory, ideally following the directory structure in this example. You will also have to specify acustomDocsPath
value insiteConfig.js
. Take a look at the now-examples repository for a Docusaurus project.
Using GitHub Pages
Docusaurus was designed to work well with one of the most popular hosting solutions for open source projects: GitHub Pages.
Deploying to GitHub Pages
- Docusaurus supports deploying as project pages or user/organization pages, your code repository does not even need to be public.
Even if your repository is private, anything published to a
gh-pages
branch will be public.
Note: When you deploy as user/organization page, the publish script will deploy these sites to the root of the master
branch of the username.github.io repo. In this case, note that you will want to have the Docusaurus infra, your docs, etc. either in another branch of the username.github.io repo (e.g., maybe call it source
), or in another, separate repo (e.g. in the same as the documented source code).
- You will need to modify the file
website/siteConfig.js
and add the required parameters.
Name | 说明 |
---|---|
organizationName | The GitHub user or organization that owns the repository. If you are the owner, then it is your GitHub username. In the case of Docusaurus, that would be the "facebook" GitHub organization. |
projectName | The name of the GitHub repository for your project. For example, the source code for Docusaurus is hosted at https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus, so our project name, in this case, would be "docusaurus". |
url | Your website's URL. For projects hosted on GitHub pages, this will be "https://username.github.io" |
baseUrl | Base URL for your project. For projects hosted on GitHub pages, it follows the format "/projectName/". For https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus, baseUrl is /docusaurus/ . |
const siteConfig = {
...
url: 'https://__userName__.github.io', // Your website URL
baseUrl: '/testProject/',
projectName: 'testProject',
organizationName: 'userName'
...
}
In case you want to deploy as a user or organization site, specify the project name as <username>.github.io
or <orgname>.github.io
. E.g. If your GitHub username is "user42" then user42.github.io, or in the case of an organization name of "org123", it will be org123.github.io.
Note: Not setting the url
and baseUrl
of your project might result in incorrect file paths generated which can cause broken links to assets paths like stylesheets and images.
While we recommend setting the
projectName
andorganizationName
insiteConfig.js
, you can also use environment variablesORGANIZATION_NAME
andPROJECT_NAME
.
- Now you have to specify the git user as an environment variable, and run the script
publish-gh-pages
Name | 说明 |
---|---|
GIT_USER | The username for a GitHub account that has to commit access to this repo. For your repositories, this will usually be your own GitHub username. The specified GIT_USER must have push access to the repository specified in the combination of organizationName and projectName . |
To run the script directly from the command-line, you can use the following, filling in the parameter values as appropriate.
Bash
GIT_USER=<GIT_USER> \
CURRENT_BRANCH=master \
USE_SSH=true \
yarn run publish-gh-pages # or `npm run publish-gh-pages`
Windows
cmd /C "set "GIT_USER=<GIT_USER>"&& set CURRENT_BRANCH=master && set USE_SSH=true && yarn run publish-gh-pages"
There are also two optional parameters that are set as environment variables:
Name | 说明 |
---|---|
USE_SSH | If this is set to true , then SSH is used instead of HTTPS for the connection to the GitHub repo. HTTPS is the default if this variable is not set. |
CURRENT_BRANCH | The branch that contains the latest docs changes that will be deployed. Usually, the branch will be master , but it could be any branch (default or otherwise) except for gh-pages . If nothing is set for this variable, then the current branch will be used. |
If you run into issues related to SSH keys, visit GitHub's authentication documentation.
You should now be able to load your website by visiting its GitHub Pages URL, which could be something along the lines of https://username.github.io/projectName, or a custom domain if you have set that up. For example, Docusaurus' own GitHub Pages URL is https://facebook.github.io/Docusaurus because it is served from the gh-pages
branch of the https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus GitHub repository. However, it can also be accessed via https://docusaurus.io/, via a generated CNAME
file which can be configured via the cname
siteConfig option.
We highly encourage reading through the GitHub Pages documentation to learn more about how this hosting solution works.
You can run the command above any time you update the docs and wish to deploy the changes to your site. Running the script manually may be fine for sites where the documentation rarely changes and it is not too much of an inconvenience to remember to manually deploy changes.
However, you can automate the publishing process with continuous integration (CI).
Automating Deployments Using Continuous Integration
Continuous integration (CI) services are typically used to perform routine tasks whenever new commits are checked in to source control. These tasks can be any combination of running unit tests and integration tests, automating builds, publishing packages to NPM, and yes, deploying changes to your website. All you need to do to automate the deployment of your website is to invoke the publish-gh-pages
script whenever your docs get updated. In the following section, we'll be covering how to do just that using CircleCI, a popular continuous integration service provider.
Using CircleCI 2.0
If you haven't done so already, you can setup CircleCI for your open source project. Afterwards, in order to enable automatic deployment of your site and documentation via CircleCI, just configure Circle to run the publish-gh-pages
script as part of the deployment step. You can follow the steps below to get that setup.
- Ensure the GitHub account that will be set as the
GIT_USER
haswrite
access to the repository that contains the documentation, by checkingSettings | Collaborators & teams
in the repository. - Log into GitHub as the
GIT_USER
. - Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens for the
GIT_USER
and generate a new personal access token, granting it full control of private repositories through therepository
access scope. Store this token in a safe place, making sure to not share it with anyone. This token can be used to authenticate GitHub actions on your behalf in place of your GitHub password. - Open your CircleCI dashboard, and navigate to the Settings page for your repository, then select "Environment variables". The URL looks like https://circleci.com/gh/ORG/REPO/edit#env-vars, where "ORG/REPO" should be replaced with your own GitHub organization/repository.
- Create a new environment variable named
GITHUB_TOKEN
, using your newly generated access token as the value. - Create a
.circleci
directory and create aconfig.yml
under that directory. - Copy the text below into
.circleci/config.yml
.
# If you only want the circle to run on direct commits to master, you can uncomment this out
# and uncomment the filters: *filter-only-master down below too
#
# aliases:
# - &filter-only-master
# branches:
# only:
# - master
version: 2
jobs:
deploy-website:
docker:
# specify the version you desire here
- image: circleci/node:8.11.1
steps:
- checkout
- run:
name: Deploying to GitHub Pages
command: |
git config --global user.email "<GITHUB_USERNAME>@users.noreply.github.com"
git config --global user.name "<YOUR_NAME>"
echo "machine github.com login <GITHUB_USERNAME> password $GITHUB_TOKEN" > ~/.netrc
cd website && yarn install && GIT_USER=<GIT_USER> yarn run publish-gh-pages
workflows:
version: 2
build_and_deploy:
jobs:
- deploy-website:
# filters: *filter-only-master
Make sure to replace all <....>
in the command:
sequence with appropriate values. For <GIT_USER>
, it should be a GitHub account that has access to push documentation to your GitHub repository. Many times <GIT_USER>
and <GITHUB_USERNAME>
will be the same.
DO NOT place the actual value of $GITHUB_TOKEN
in circle.yml
. We already configured that as an environment variable back in Step 5.
If you want to use SSH for your GitHub repository connection, you can set
USE_SSH=true
. So the above command would look something like:cd website && npm install && GIT_USER=<GIT_USER> USE_SSH=true npm run publish-gh-pages
.
Unlike when you run the
publish-gh-pages
script manually when the script runs within the Circle environment, the value ofCURRENT_BRANCH
is already defined as an environment variable within CircleCI and will be picked up by the script automatically.
Now, whenever a new commit lands in master
, CircleCI will run your suite of tests and, if everything passes, your website will be deployed via the publish-gh-pages
script.
If you would rather use a deploy key instead of a personal access token, you can by starting with the CircleCI instructions for adding a read/write deploy key.
Tips & Tricks
When initially deploying to a gh-pages
branch using CircleCI, you may notice that some jobs triggered by commits to the gh-pages
branch fail to run successfully due to a lack of tests (This can also result in chat/slack build failure notifications).
You can work around this by:
- Setting the environment variable
CUSTOM_COMMIT_MESSAGE
flag to thepublish-gh-pages
command with the contents of[skip ci]
. e.g.
CUSTOM_COMMIT_MESSAGE="[skip ci]" \
yarn run publish-gh-pages # or `npm run publish-gh-pages`
- Alternatively, you can work around this by creating a basic CircleCI config with the following contents:
# CircleCI 2.0 Config File
# This config file will prevent tests from being run on the gh-pages branch.
version: 2
jobs:
build:
machine: true
branches:
ignore: gh-pages
steps:
- run: echo "Skipping tests on gh-pages branch"
Save this file as config.yml
and place it in a .circleci
directory inside your website/static
directory.
Using Travis CI
- Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens and generate a new personal access token
- Using your GitHub account, add the Travis CI app to the repository you want to activate.
- Open your Travis CI dashboard. The URL looks like https://travis-ci.com/USERNAME/REPO, and navigate to the
More options
>Setting
>Environment Variables
section of your repository. - Create a new environment variable named
GH_TOKEN
with your newly generated token as its value, thenGH_EMAIL
(your email address) andGH_NAME
(your GitHub username). - Create a
.travis.yml
on the root of your repository with below text.
# .travis.yml
language: node_js
node_js:
- '8'
branches:
only:
- master
cache:
yarn: true
script:
- git config --global user.name "${GH_NAME}"
- git config --global user.email "${GH_EMAIL}"
- echo "machine github.com login ${GH_NAME} password ${GH_TOKEN}" > ~/.netrc
- cd website && yarn install && GIT_USER="${GH_NAME}" yarn run publish-gh-pages
Now, whenever a new commit lands in master
, Travis CI will run your suite of tests and, if everything passes, your website will be deployed via the publish-gh-pages
script.
Using Azure Pipelines
- Sign Up at Azure Pipelines if you haven't already.
- Create an organization and within the organization create a project and connect your repository from GitHub.
- Go to https://github.com/settings/tokens and generate a new personal access token with repository scope.
- In the project page (which looks like https://dev.azure.com/ORG_NAME/REPO_NAME/_build) create a new pipeline with the following text. Also, click on edit and add a new environment variable named
GH_TOKEN
with your newly generated token as its value, thenGH_EMAIL
(your email address) andGH_NAME
(your GitHub username). Make sure to mark them as secret. Alternatively, you can also add a file namedazure-pipelines.yml
at yout repository root.
# azure-pipelines.yml
trigger:
- master
pool:
vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'
steps:
- checkout: self
persistCredentials: true
- task: NodeTool@0
inputs:
versionSpec: '10.x'
displayName: 'Install Node.js'
- script: |
git config --global user.name "${GH_NAME}"
git config --global user.email "${GH_EMAIL}"
git checkout -b master
echo "machine github.com login ${GH_NAME} password ${GH_TOKEN}" > ~/.netrc
cd website
yarn install
GIT_USER="${GH_NAME}" CURRENT_BRANCH=master yarn run publish-gh-pages
env:
GH_NAME: $(GH_NAME)
GH_EMAIL: $(GH_EMAIL)
GH_TOKEN: $(GH_TOKEN)
displayName: 'yarn install and build'
Using Drone
- Create a new ssh key that will be the deploy key for your project.
- Name your private and public keys to be specific and so that it does not overwrite your other ssh keys.
- Go to https://github.com/USERNAME/REPO/settings/keys and add a new deploy key by pasting in our public key you just generated.
- Open your Drone.io dashboard and login. The URL looks like https://cloud.drone.io/USERNAME/REPO.
- Click on the repository, click on activate repository, and add a secret called
git_deploy_private_key
with your private key value that you just generated. - Create a
.drone.yml
on the root of your repository with below text.
# .drone.yml
kind: pipeline
type: docker
trigger:
event:
- tag
- name: Website
image: node
commands:
- mkdir -p $HOME/.ssh
- ssh-keyscan -t rsa github.com >> $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
- echo "$GITHUB_PRIVATE_KEY > $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa"
- chmod 0600 $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
- cd website
- npm i
- npm run publish-gh-pages
environment:
USE_SSH: true
GIT_USER: $DRONE_COMMIT_AUTHOR
GITHUB_PRIVATE_KEY: git_deploy_private_key
Now, whenever you push a new tag to github, this trigger will start the drone ci job to publish your website.
Hosting on Vercel
Deploying your Docusaurus project to Vercel will provide you with various benefits in the areas of performance and ease of use.
To deploy your Docusaurus project with a Vercel for Git Integration, make sure it has been pushed to a Git repository.
Import the project into Vercel using the Import Flow. During the import, you will find all relevant options preconfigured for you; however, you can choose to change any of these options, a list of which can be found here.
After your project has been imported, all subsequent pushes to branches will generate Preview Deployments, and all changes made to the Production Branch (commonly "main") will result in a Production Deployment.
Hosting on Netlify
Steps to configure your Docusaurus-powered site on Netlify.
Select New site from Git
Connect to your preferred Git provider.
Select the branch to deploy. Default is
master
Configure your build steps:
- For your build command enter:
cd website; npm install; npm run build;
- For publish directory:
website/build/<projectName>
(use theprojectName
from yoursiteConfig
)
- For your build command enter:
Click Deploy site
You can also configure Netlify to rebuild on every commit to your repository, or only master
branch commits.
Hosting on Render
Render offers free static site hosting with fully managed SSL, custom domains, a global CDN and continuous auto deploy from your Git repo. Deploy your app in just a few minutes by following these steps.
Create a new Web Service on Render, and give Render's GitHub app permission to access your Docusaurus repo.
Select the branch to deploy. The default is
master
.Enter the following values during creation.
Field Value Environment Static Site
Build Command cd website; yarn install; yarn build
Publish Directory website/build/<projectName>
projectName
is the value you defined in yoursiteConfig.js
.const siteConfig = { // ... projectName: 'your-project-name', // ...
That's it! Your app will be live on your Render URL as soon as the build finishes.
Publishing to GitHub Enterprise
GitHub enterprise installations should work in the same manner as github.com; you only need to identify the organization's GitHub Enterprise host.
Name | 说明 |
---|---|
GITHUB_HOST | The hostname for the GitHub enterprise server. |
Alter your siteConfig.js
to add a property 'githubHost'
which represents the GitHub Enterprise hostname. Alternatively, set an environment variable GITHUB_HOST
when executing the publish command.
