vi .github/webhooks/hooks.json
# adjust content of .github/webhooks/hooks.json
# replace all variables accordingly

# copy webhook service file
cp .github/webhooks/webhook.template /etc/init.d/webhook
vi /etc/init.d/webhook
# adjust content of /etc/init.d/webhook
chmod +x /etc/init.d/webhook

service webhook start
rc-update add webhook boot

vi /etc/nginx/http.d/default.conf
# adjust the nginx config
# location /hooks/ {
#     proxy_http_version 1.1;
#     proxy_set_header   Upgrade $http_upgrade;
#     proxy_set_header   Connection 'upgrade';
#     proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
#     proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;
#     proxy_set_header   Host $host;
# 
#     proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:9000/hooks/;
#     proxy_redirect     off;
# 
#     #access_log $LOG_PATH/nginx-access.hooks.log hooks_log;
#     #error_log $LOG_PATH/nginx-error.backend.hook.log warn;
# }

# for the backend install pm2
npm install pm2 -g

# expose the backend service via nginx
vi /etc/nginx/http.d/default.conf
# location /api/ {
#     proxy_http_version 1.1;
#     proxy_set_header   Upgrade $http_upgrade;
#     proxy_set_header   Connection 'upgrade';
#     proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
#     proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;
#     proxy_set_header   Host $host;
#
#     proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:3000/;
#     proxy_redirect     off;
#

How it works

This repository utilizes vuepress-deploy to automatically deploy the current master branch to github pages.

A Pullrequest-Review-Workflow is applied to get changes into the master. From there on an automatic github workflow script utilizing vuepress-deploy is taking over. The vuepress page is built and force-pushed to the gh-pages branch, which in turn is then deployed on the github pages infrastructure and bound to the web address IT4C.dev.
