Run to Publish GitHub Pages

Publish GitHub Pages​

important

Before publish, make sure your project repo has the gh-pages branch. If it does not exist, create it first. Creating the gh-pages branch might be added to sbt-github-pages in the future, but it is not available at the moment.

Create gh-pages branch​

You need to do it only once. If your project repo already has the gh-pages branch, skip it.

# Move to some temporary location.
# Clone your project. This one will be removed once the `gh-pages` creation is done.
$ git clone git@github.com:USERNAME/YOUR_PROJECT.git

$ cd YOUR_PROJECT

$ git checkout --orphan gh-pages

# Make sure you're in the project directory.
$ git rm -rf .

$ git commit --allow-empty -m "Add gh-pages branch"

$ git push origin gh-pages

# Now you can remove this project in the temporary location.

Publish GitHub Pages​

To publish gh-pages, run the following task in sbt console

sbt:test-project> publishToGitHubPages

or in bash or zsh

sbt publishToGitHubPages

e.g.)

sbt:test-project> publishToGitHubPages
