#+title: Bajsicki.com

This is the git for my personal website. Nothing to see here, just pretty vanilla hugo stuff.

* Deployment

I'm using a git hook to automatically purge and re-build the ~/public~ directory after each commit. I don't get enough traffic for this to be an inconvenience.

I used some of [[https://jasonmurray.org/posts/2020/githugogen/][this article]] by Jason Murray to help me understand how git hooks work. I'm running [[https://forgejo.org/][Forgejo]], and this is a much more elegant and simple solution when compared to running Actions or other CI/CD tools.

The post-receive hook is like so:

#+begin_src sh
#!/bin/bash
# Directory on the server where the website will be mapped.
export GIT_WORK_TREE=/srv/bajsicki.com/

echo `pwd`
echo "post-receive: Generating https://bajsicki.com with Hugo..."

# Create the directory and all subdirectories if they don't exist.
mkdir -p $GIT_WORK_TREE
chmod 755 $GIT_WORK_TREE

# Remove any files already in the public directory, a fresh copy will be generated by hugo
rm -rf $GIT_WORK_TREE/public
# Update the modules in case of changes and pull the new pages
cd $GIT_WORK_TREE && git pull --recurse-submodules

# Generate the site with hugo
cd $GIT_WORK_TREE && hugo


# Fix any permission problems.
find $GIT_WORK_TREE/public -type f -print | xargs -d '\n' chmod 644
find $GIT_WORK_TREE/public -type d -print | xargs -d '\n' chmod 755

echo "post-receive: Hugo site deployment complete"
