deploy_static_site: Deploy static website to local Git folder

In salim-b/yay: Delightful Convenience Functions

Deploy static website to local Git folder

Description

Copies the content of a specific filesystem folder to another local Git folder, then stages, commits and pushes the changes. Primarily useful to deploy a static website (typically the output of a static site generator).

Use this function with caution since by default it – except for the paths listed in never_clean – completely wipes the to_path directory!

Usage

deploy_static_site(
  from_path,
  to_path,
  clean_to_path = TRUE,
  never_clean = paths_to_keep,
  branch = NULL,
  commit_msg = "auto-deploy static website",
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

from_path	Path to the directory containing the static website files that are to be deployed. A character scalar.
to_path	Path to the Git (sub)folder to which the static website files are to be deployed. A character scalar.
clean_to_path	Whether or not to wipe to_path before deploying the new website files. Setting this to TRUE ensures there are no obsolete files left over from previous deployments.
never_clean	A character vector of paths relative to to_path which are preserved when wiping to_path (i.e. clean_to_path = TRUE). By default, this includes the following files and directories: "netlify.toml" "robots.txt" "_headers" "_redirects" ".gitignore" ".gitmodules" ".gitsigners" ".htaccess" ".hvm" ".well-known"
branch	The name of the Git branch to which the static website files are to be committed. A character scalar or NULL. If NULL, defaults to the currently checked out branch of the repository to_path belongs to.
commit_msg	The Git commit message used for the deployment. A character scalar.
quiet	Whether or not to suppress printing status output from internal processing.

Value

A vector of paths to the deployed files/folders, invisibly.
