| 11 | +# GitHub Pages With Static Site Adapter |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Qwik's Static Site adapter helps to generate static html files which can be easily deployed to GitHub Pages. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +## Installation |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +To integrate the `static-site` adapter, use the `add` command: |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +<PackageManagerTabs> |
| 20 | +<span q:slot="pnpm"> |
| 21 | +```shell |
| 22 | +pnpm run qwik add static |
| 23 | +``` |
| 24 | +</span> |
| 25 | +<span q:slot="npm"> |
| 26 | +```shell |
| 27 | +npm run qwik add static |
| 28 | +``` |
| 29 | +</span> |
| 30 | +<span q:slot="yarn"> |
| 31 | +```shell |
| 32 | +yarn run qwik add static |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | +</span> |
| 35 | +<span q:slot="bun"> |
| 36 | +```shell |
| 37 | +bun run qwik add static |
| 38 | +``` |
| 39 | +</span> |
| 40 | +</PackageManagerTabs> |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +Above command will create a directory at project root named `adapters/static/vite.config.ts` with the below code. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +```ts title="adapters/static/vite.config.ts" |
| 45 | +import { staticAdapter } from "@builder.io/qwik-city/adapters/static/vite"; |
| 46 | +import { extendConfig } from '@builder.io/qwik-city/vite'; |
| 47 | +import baseConfig from '../../vite.config'; |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +export default extendConfig(baseConfig, () => { |
| 50 | + return { |
| 51 | + build: { |
| 52 | + ssr: true, |
| 53 | + rollupOptions: { |
| 54 | + input: ['@qwik-city-plan'], |
| 55 | + }, |
| 56 | + }, |
| 57 | + plugins: [ |
| 58 | + staticAdapter({ |
| 59 | + origin: 'https://yoursite.qwik.dev', |
| 60 | + }), |
| 61 | + ], |
| 62 | + }; |
| 63 | +}); |
| 64 | +``` |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +> Remember to change the `origin` in this file to your domain. |
| 67 | +
|
| 68 | +In the main `vite.config.ts` you should add the base property and set the value with the name of your repository. |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +```ts |
| 71 | +export default defineConfig(({ command, mode }): UserConfig => { |
| 72 | + return { |
| 73 | + base: '/github-repository-name/', |
| 74 | + [...] |
| 75 | + } |
| 76 | +}); |
| 77 | +``` |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +## Automated Deployment to GitHub Pages with GitHub Actions |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +GitHub Actions enables automated deployment of your site to GitHub Pages upon code changes.<br/> |
| 82 | +To enable this feature, configure your repository settings as follows: |
| 83 | +- Navigate to GitHub Pages Settings: Access your repository's GitHub Pages settings by visiting the /settings/pages path within your repository.<br/> |
| 84 | +For example: https://github.com/your-github-username/github-repository/settings/pages. |
| 85 | +- Configure Deployment Source: Under the "Source" section, select "GitHub Actions" as the deployment source.<br/> |
| 86 | +This instructs GitHub Pages to use a GitHub Actions workflow for deployments. |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +## Add The GitHub Action |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +Here's an example: |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +```yml |
| 93 | +# FILE: .github/workflows/deploy.yml |
| 94 | +# ========================================== |
| 95 | +
|
| 96 | +name: Deploy to GitHub Pages |
| 97 | +
|

| 99 | + push: |
| 100 | + branches: 'main' |
| 101 | +

| 102 | +jobs: |
| 103 | + build_site: |
| 104 | + runs-on: ubuntu-latest |
| 105 | + steps: |
| 106 | + - name: Checkout |
| 107 | + uses: actions/checkout@v4 |
| 108 | +
|
| 109 | + - name: Install pnpm |

| 128 | +
|

| 130 | + uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v3 |
| 131 | + with: |
| 132 | + path: 'dist/github-repository-name/' |
| 133 | +
|
| 134 | + deploy: |
| 135 | + needs: build_site |
| 136 | + runs-on: ubuntu-latest |
| 137 | +
|
| 138 | + permissions: |
| 139 | + pages: write |
| 140 | + id-token: write |
| 141 | +
|
| 142 | + environment: |
| 143 | + name: github-pages |
| 144 | + url: ${{ steps.deployment.outputs.page_url }} |
| 145 | +
|
| 146 | + steps: |
| 147 | + - name: Deploy |
| 148 | + id: deployment |
| 149 | + uses: actions/deploy-pages@v4 |
| 150 | +``` |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +This GitHub Actions workflow automates the process of building and deploying a website to GitHub Pages.<br/> |
| 153 | +It triggers upon pushes to the main branch, ensuring the site is updated with the latest changes.<br/> |
| 154 | +The workflow first builds the website using pnpm, then uploads the generated files as an artifact.<br/> |
| 155 | +Finally, it deploys the artifact to GitHub Pages, making the site live. |
