Development

Deploying a staging site to cloud.gov

prerequisites: Cloud Foundry cli (docs) and cloud.gov access

Run these commands from the project's root directory.

  1. Build the site: JEKYLL_ENV=staging bundle exec jekyll build
    The JEKYLL_ENV=staging will cause the index.html to have a <meta name="robots" content="noindex" /> in the head and a timestamp at the bottom.
  2. (optional) Create a login for the deployed site: htpasswd -c Staticfile.auth <username>
    This will create a file (Staticfile.auth) with the basic authentication that will be applied to the deployed site. If no basic authentication is desired, make sure Staticfile.auth is not present before the Deploy step.
  3. Login to cloud.gov: cf login -a api.fr.cloud.gov --sso
  4. Deploy: cf push
