Warning
This will DESTROY your gh-pages branch. If you love it, you’ll want to take backups before playing with this. This script assumes that gh-pages is 100% derivative. You should never edit files in your gh-pages branch by hand if you’re using this script because you will lose your work.
Installation
pip install ghp-import2
Usage
Usage: ghp-import [OPTIONS] DIRECTORY
- Options:
- -n
Include a .nojekyll file in the branch.
- -m MESG
The commit message to use on the target branch.
- -p
Push the branch to origin/{branch} after committing.
- -r REMOTE
The name of the remote to push to. [origin]
- -b BRANCH
Name of the branch to write to. [gh-pages]
- -h, --help
show this help message and exit
Its pretty simple. Inside your repository just run ghp-import $DOCS_DIR where $DOCS_DIR is the path to the built documentation. This will write a commit to your gh-pages branch with the current documents in it.
If you specify -p it will also attempt to push the gh-pages branch to GitHub. By default it’ll just run git push origin gh-pages. You can specify a different remote using the -r flag.
You can specify a different branch with -b. This is useful for user and organization page, which are served from the master branch.
ghp-import also recognizes the GIT_DIR environment variable which can be useful for Git hooks.
