Host on GitLab Pages | GitLab makes it easy to build, deploy, and host your Hugo website via their free GitLab Pages service, which provides native support for Hugo. |

Assumptions
- Working familiarity with Git for version control
- Completion of the Hugo Quick Start
- A GitLab account
- A Hugo website on your local machine that you are ready to publish
BaseURL
The baseURL
in your site 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 jobs by creating a .gitlab-ci.yml
file in the root of your project.
{{< code file=".gitlab-ci.yml" >}} variables: DART_SASS_VERSION: 1.64.1 HUGO_VERSION: 0.115.4 NODE_VERSION: 20.x GIT_DEPTH: 0 GIT_STRATEGY: clone GIT_SUBMODULE_STRATEGY: recursive TZ: America/Los_Angeles

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>/
.
