GitLab 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.
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
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" >}} image: monachus/hugo
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>/
.
