[GitLab](https://gitlab.com/) makes it incredibly easy to build, deploy, and host your Hugo website via their free GitLab Pages service, which provides [native support for Hugo, as well as numerous other static site generators](https://gitlab.com/pages/hugo).
|
|
|
|
## 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
|
|
|
|
## Create .gitlab-ci.yml
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd your-hugo-site
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the root directory of your Hugo site, create a `.gitlab-ci.yml` file. The `.gitlab-ci.yml` configures the GitLab CI on how to build your page. Simply add the content below.
|
|
|
|
{{< code file=".gitlab-ci.yml" >}}

|
variables:
|
|
GIT_SUBMODULE_STRATEGY: recursive
|
|
|
|
pages:
|
|
script:
|
|
- hugo
|
|
artifacts:
|
|
paths:
|
|
- public
|
|
only:
|
|
- master
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
## 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.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# 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/).
