## Assumptions
|
|
|
|
* Working familiarity with Git for version control
|
|
* Completion of the Hugo [Quick Start]
|
|
* A [GitLab account](https://gitlab.com/users/sign_in)
|
|
* A Hugo website on your local machine that you are ready to publish
|
|
|
|
## BaseURL
|
|
|
|
The `baseURL` in your [site configuration](/getting-started/configuration/) must reflect the full URL of your GitLab pages repository if you are using the default GitLab Pages URL (e.g., `https://<YourUsername>.gitlab.io/<your-hugo-site>/`) and not a custom domain.
|
|
|
|
## Configure GitLab CI/CD
|
|
|
|
Define your [CI/CD](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/quick_start/) jobs by creating a `.gitlab-ci.yml` file in the root of your project.
|
|
|
|
{{< code file=".gitlab-ci.yml" >}}

See [this list](https://gitlab.com/pages/hugo/container_registry) if you wish to use a particular Hugo version to build your site.

## Push your Hugo website to GitLab
|
|
|
|
Next, create a new repository on GitLab. It is *not* necessary to make the repository public. In addition, you might want to add `/public` to your .gitignore file, as there is no need to push compiled assets to GitLab or keep your output website in version control.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# initialize new git repository
|
|
git init
|
|
|
|
# add /public directory to our .gitignore file
|
|
echo "/public" >> .gitignore
|
|
|
|
# commit and push code to master branch
|
|
git add .
|
|
git commit -m "Initial commit"
|
|
git remote add origin https://gitlab.com/YourUsername/your-hugo-site.git
|
|
git push -u origin master
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Wait for your page to build
|
|
|
|
That's it! You can now follow the CI agent building your page at `https://gitlab.com/<YourUsername>/<your-hugo-site>/pipelines`.
|
|
|
|
After the build has passed, your new website is available at `https://<YourUsername>.gitlab.io/<your-hugo-site>/`.
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
GitLab supports using custom CNAME's and TLS certificates. For more details on GitLab Pages, see the [GitLab Pages setup documentation](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/04/07/gitlab-pages-setup/).
