## Assumptions
|
|
|
|
* A web host running a web server. This could be a shared hosting environment or a VPS.
|
|
* Access to your web host with SSH
|
|
* A functional static website built with Hugo
|
|
|
|
The spoiler is that you can deploy your entire website with a command that looks like the following:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
hugo && rsync -avz --delete public/ www-data@ftp.topologix.fr:~/www/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As you will see, we'll put this command in a shell script file, which makes building and deployment as easy as executing `./deploy`.
|
|
|
|
## Copy Your SSH Key to your host
|
|
|
|
To make logging in to your server more secure and less interactive, you can upload your SSH key. If you have already installed your SSH key to your server, you can move on to the next section.
|
|
|
|
First, install the ssh client. On Debian distributions, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file=install-openssh.sh >}}
|
|
sudo apt-get install openssh-client
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
Then generate your ssh key. First, create the `.ssh` directory in your home directory if it doesn't exist:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~$ cd && mkdir .ssh & cd .ssh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next, execute this command to generate a new keypair called `rsa_id`:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/.ssh/$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -q -C "For SSH" -f rsa_id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'll be prompted for a passphrase, which is an extra layer of protection. Enter the passphrase you'd like to use, and then enter it again when prompted, or leave it blank if you don't want to have a passphrase. Not using a passphrase will let you transfer files non-interactively, as you won't be prompted for a password when you log in, but it is slightly less secure.
|
|
|
|
To make logging in easier, add a definition for your web host to the file `~/.ssh/config` with the following command, replacing `HOST` with the IP address or hostname of your web host, and `USER` with the username you use to log in to your web host when transferring files:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/.ssh/$ cat >> config <<EOF
|
|
Host HOST
|
|
Hostname HOST
|
|
Port 22
|
|
User USER
|
|
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/rsa_id
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then copy your ssh public key to the remote server with the `ssh-copy-id` command:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/.ssh/$ ssh-copy-id -i rsa_id.pub USER@HOST.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can easily connect to the remote server:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~$ ssh user@host
|
|
Enter passphrase for key '/home/mylogin/.ssh/rsa_id':
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now that you can log in with your SSH key, let's create a script to automate deployment of your Hugo site.
|
|
|
|
## Shell script
|
|
|
|
Create a new script called `deploy` the root of your Hugo tree:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/websites/topologix.fr$ editor deploy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add the following content. Replace the `USER`, `HOST`, and `DIR` values with your own values:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
USER=my-user
|
|
HOST=my-server.com
|
|
DIR=my/directory/to/topologix.fr/ # the directory where your website files should go
|
|
|
|
hugo && rsync -avz --delete public/ ${USER}@${HOST}:~/${DIR} # this will delete everything on the server that's not in the local public folder
|
|
|
|
exit 0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that `DIR` is the relative path from the remote user's home. If you have to specify a full path (for instance `/var/www/mysite/`) you must change `~/${DIR}` to `${DIR}` inside the command-line. For most cases you should not have to.
|
|
|
|
Save and close, and make the `deploy` file executable:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/websites/topologix.fr$ chmod +x deploy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you only have to enter the following command to deploy and update your website:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
~/websites/topologix.fr$ ./deploy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Your site builds and deploys:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|

You can incorporate other processing tasks into this deployment script as well.
