<p>
**Auto-deploy static websites from git repositories**
</p>
</div>
## Why?
SSHing into a server and performing a `git pull` is boring. I couldn't
find any free(as in freedom) software for automating static website
deploys like GitHub Pages or Netlify.
This is very minimal, all it does is a `git fetch $branch` but it works
for me :)
## Usage
1. All configuration is done through
[./config/default.toml](./config/default.toml)(can be moved to
`/etc/static-pages/config.toml`). Too add a website,
make a similar entry:
```toml
pages = [
{ branch = "gh-pages", repo = "https://github.com/realaravinth/realaravinth/", path ="/var/www/pages/realaravinth", secret = "mytopsecretsuperlongpassword123" },
]
```
2. If `pages` is deployed at `pages.example.com` and you wish to deploy
changes from `gh-pages` branch, you can do so with the following
command:
```bash
curl -v --location --request POST 'https://pages.example.com/api/v1/update' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw "{
\"secret\": \"$token\",
\"branch\": \"gh-pages\"
}"
```
