This guide is valid for any GitLab instance, -you just need to replace Pages wildcard domain on GitLab.com -(`*.gitlab.io`) with your own. - -#### Practical examples - -**Project Websites:** - -- You created a project called `blog` under your username `john`, -therefore your project URL is `https://gitlab.com/john/blog/`. -Once you enable GitLab Pages for this project, and build your site, -it will be available under `https://john.gitlab.io/blog/`. -- You created a group for all your websites called `websites`, -and a project within this group is called `blog`. Your project -URL is `https://gitlab.com/websites/blog/`. Once you enable -GitLab Pages for this project, the site will live under -`https://websites.gitlab.io/blog/`. - -**User and Group Websites:** - -- Under your username, `john`, you created a project called -`john.gitlab.io`. Your project URL will be `https://gitlab.com/john/john.gitlab.io`. -Once you enable GitLab Pages for your project, your website -will be published under `https://john.gitlab.io`. -- Under your group `websites`, you created a project called -`websites.gitlab.io`. your project's URL will be `https://gitlab.com/websites/websites.gitlab.io`. Once you enable GitLab Pages for your project, -your website will be published under `https://websites.gitlab.io`. - -**General example:** - -- On GitLab.com, a project site will always be available under -`https://namespace.gitlab.io/project-name` -- On GitLab.com, a user or group website will be available under -`https://namespace.gitlab.io/` -- On your GitLab instance, replace `gitlab.io` above with your -Pages server domain. Ask your sysadmin for this information. - -### DNS Records - -A Domain Name System (DNS) web service routes visitors to websites -by translating domain names (such as `www.example.com`) into the -numeric IP addresses (such as `192.0.2.1`) that computers use to -connect to each other. - -A DNS record is created to point a (sub)domain to a certain location, -which can be an IP address or another domain. In case you want to use -GitLab Pages with your own (sub)domain, you need to access your domain's -registrar control panel to add a DNS record pointing it back to your -GitLab Pages site. - -Note that **how to** add DNS records depends on which server your domain -is hosted on. Every control panel has its own place to do it. If you are -not an admin of your domain, and don't have access to your registrar, -you'll need to ask for the technical support of your hosting service -to do it for you. - -To help you out, we've gathered some instructions on how to do that -for the most popular hosting services: - -- [Amazon](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/gettingstarted/latest/swh/getting-started-configure-route53.html) -- [Bluehost](https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/559) -- [CloudFlare](https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200169096-How-do-I-add-A-records-) -- [cPanel](https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/Edit+DNS+Zone) -- [DreamHost](https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/215414867-How-do-I-add-custom-DNS-records-) -- [Go Daddy](https://www.godaddy.com/help/add-an-a-record-19238) -- [Hostgator](http://support.hostgator.com/articles/changing-dns-records) -- [Inmotion hosting](https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/559) -- [Media Temple](https://mediatemple.net/community/products/dv/204403794/how-can-i-change-the-dns-records-for-my-domain) -- [Microsoft](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727018.aspx) - -If your hosting service is not listed above, you can just try to -search the web for "how to add dns record on <my hosting service>". - -#### DNS A record - -In case you want to point a root domain (`example.com`) to your -GitLab Pages site, deployed to `namespace.gitlab.io`, you need to -log into your domain's admin control panel and add a DNS `A` record -pointing your domain to Pages' server IP address. For projects on -GitLab.com, this IP is `104.208.235.32`. For projects leaving in -other GitLab instances (CE or EE), please contact your sysadmin -asking for this information (which IP address is Pages server -running on your instance). - -**Practical Example:** - - - -#### DNS CNAME record - -In case you want to point a subdomain (`hello-world.example.com`) -to your GitLab Pages site initially deployed to `namespace.gitlab.io`, -you need to log into your domain's admin control panel and add a DNS -`CNAME` record pointing your subdomain to your website URL -(`namespace.gitlab.io`) address. - -Notice that, despite it's a user or project website, the `CNAME` -should point to your Pages domain (`namespace.gitlab.io`), -without any `/project-name`. - -**Practical Example:** - - - -#### TL;DR - -| From | DNS Record | To | -| ---- | ---------- | -- | -| domain.com | A | 104.208.235.32 | -| subdomain.domain.com | CNAME | namespace.gitlab.io | - -> **Notes**: -> -> - **Do not** use a CNAME record if you want to point your -`domain.com` to your GitLab Pages site. Use an `A` record instead. -> - **Do not** add any special chars after the default Pages -domain. E.g., **do not** point your `subdomain.domain.com` to -`namespace.gitlab.io.` or `namespace.gitlab.io/`. - -### SSL/TLS Certificates - -Every GitLab Pages project on GitLab.com will be available under -HTTPS for the default Pages domain (`*.gitlab.io`). Once you set -up your Pages project with your custom (sub)domain, if you want -it secured by HTTPS, you will have to issue a certificate for that -(sub)domain and install it on your project. - ->**Note:** -Certificates are NOT required to add to your custom -(sub)domain on your GitLab Pages project, though they are -highly recommendable. - -The importance of having any website securely served under HTTPS -is explained on the introductory section of the blog post -[Secure GitLab Pages with StartSSL](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/06/24/secure-gitlab-pages-with-startssl/#https-a-quick-overview). - -The reason why certificates are so important is that they encrypt -the connection between the **client** (you, me, your visitors) -and the **server** (where you site lives), through a keychain of -authentications and validations. - -### Issuing Certificates - -GitLab Pages accepts [PEM](https://support.quovadisglobal.com/kb/a37/what-is-pem-format.aspx) certificates issued by -[Certificate Authorities (CA)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_authority) -and self-signed certificates. Of course, -[you'd rather issue a certificate than generate a self-signed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-signed_certificate), -for security reasons and for having browsers trusting your -site's certificate. - -There are several different kinds of certificates, each one -with certain security level. A static personal website will -not require the same security level as an online banking web app, -for instance. There are a couple Certificate Authorities that -offer free certificates, aiming to make the internet more secure -to everyone. The most popular is [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/), -which issues certificates trusted by most of browsers, it's open -source, and free to use. Please read through this tutorial to -understand [how to secure your GitLab Pages website with Let's Encrypt](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/04/11/tutorial-securing-your-gitlab-pages-with-tls-and-letsencrypt/). - -With the same popularity, there are [certificates issued by CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/ssl/), -which also offers a [free CDN service](https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflares-free-cdn-and-you/). -Their certs are valid up to 15 years. Read through the tutorial on -[how to add a CloudFlare Certificate to your GitLab Pages website](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/). - -### Adding certificates to your project - -Regardless the CA you choose, the steps to add your certificate to -your Pages project are the same. - -#### What do you need - -1. A PEM certificate -1. An intermediate certificate -1. A public key - - - -These fields are found under your **Project**'s **Settings** > **Pages** > **New Domain**. - -#### What's what? - -- A PEM certificate is the certificate generated by the CA, -which needs to be added to the field **Certificate (PEM)**. -- An [intermediate certificate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_certificate_authority) (aka "root certificate") is -the part of the encryption keychain that identifies the CA. -Usually it's combined with the PEM certificate, but there are -some cases in which you need to add them manually. -[CloudFlare certs](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/) -are one of these cases. -- A public key is an encrypted key which validates -your PEM against your domain. - -#### Now what? - -Now that you hopefully understand why you need all -of this, it's simple: - -- Your PEM certificate needs to be added to the first field -- If your certificate is missing its intermediate, copy -and paste the root certificate (usually available from your CA website) -and paste it in the [same field as your PEM certificate](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/), -just jumping a line between them. -- Copy your public key and paste it in the last field - ->**Note:** -**Do not** open certificates or encryption keys in -regular text editors. Always use code editors (such as -Sublime Text, Atom, Dreamweaver, Brackets, etc). - -||| -|:--|--:| -||[**Part 2: Quick start guide - Setting up GitLab Pages →**](getting_started_part_two.md)| +This document was moved to [another location](../user/project/pages/getting_started_part_one.md). diff --git a/doc/pages/getting_started_part_three.md b/doc/pages/getting_started_part_three.md index ef47abef3a0..1697b5cd6b4 100644 --- a/doc/pages/getting_started_part_three.md +++ b/doc/pages/getting_started_part_three.md @@ -1,383 +1 @@ -# GitLab Pages from A to Z: Part 3 - -- _[Part 1: Static Sites, Domains, DNS Records, and SSL/TLS Certificates](getting_started_part_one.md)_ -- _[Part 2: Quick Start Guide - Setting Up GitLab Pages](getting_started_part_two.md)_ -- **Part 3: Creating and Tweaking `.gitlab-ci.yml` for GitLab Pages** - ---- - -## Creating and Tweaking `.gitlab-ci.yml` for GitLab Pages - -[GitLab CI](https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-ci/) serves -numerous purposes, to build, test, and deploy your app -from GitLab through -[Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Deployment](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/08/05/continuous-integration-delivery-and-deployment-with-gitlab/) -methods.

It's an -[Yaml](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/YAMLSyntax.html) file, -with its own syntax. You can always check your CI syntax with -the [GitLab CI Lint Tool](https://gitlab.com/ci/lint). - -**Practical Example:** - -Let's consider you have a [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) site. -To build it locally, you would open your terminal, and run `jekyll build`. -Of course, before building it, you had to install Jekyll in your computer. -For that, you had to open your terminal and run `gem install jekyll`. -Right? GitLab CI + GitLab Runner do the same thing. But you need to -write in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` the script you want to run so -GitLab Runner will do it for you. It looks more complicated then it -is. What you need to tell the Runner: - -``` -$ gem install jekyll -$ jekyll build -``` - -### Script - -To transpose this script to Yaml, it would be like this: - -```yaml -script: - - gem install jekyll - - jekyll build -``` - -### Job - -So far so good. Now, each `script`, in GitLab is organized by -a `job`, which is a bunch of scripts and settings you want to -apply to that specific task. - -```yaml -job: - script: - - gem install jekyll - - jekyll build -``` - -For GitLab Pages, this `job` has a specific name, called `pages`, -which tells the Runner you want that task to deploy your website -with GitLab Pages: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - gem install jekyll - - jekyll build -``` - -### The `public` directory - -We also need to tell Jekyll where do you want the website to build, -and GitLab Pages will only consider files in a directory called `public`. -To do that with Jekyll, we need to add a flag specifying the -[destination (`-d`)](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/usage/) of the -built website: `jekyll build -d public`. Of course, we need -to tell this to our Runner: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - gem install jekyll - - jekyll build -d public -``` - -### Artifacts - -We also need to tell the Runner that this _job_ generates -_artifacts_, which is the site built by Jekyll. -Where are these artifacts stored? In the `public` directory: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - gem install jekyll - - jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public -``` - -The script above would be enough to build your Jekyll -site with GitLab Pages. But, from Jekyll 3.4.0 on, its default -template originated by `jekyll new project` requires -[Bundler](http://bundler.io/) to install Jekyll dependencies -and the default theme. To adjust our script to meet these new -requirements, we only need to install and build Jekyll with Bundler: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public -``` - -That's it! A `.gitlab-ci.yml` with the content above would deploy -your Jekyll 3.4.0 site with GitLab Pages. This is the minimum -configuration for our example. On the steps below, we'll refine -the script by adding extra options to our GitLab CI. - -### Image - -At this point, you probably ask yourself: "okay, but to install Jekyll -I need Ruby. Where is Ruby on that script?". The answer is simple: the -first thing GitLab Runner will look for in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` is a -[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) image specifying what do you need in -your container to run that script: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -pages: - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public -``` - -In this case, you're telling the Runner to pull this image, which -contains Ruby 2.3 as part of its file system. When you don't specify -this image in your configuration, the Runner will use a default -image, which is Ruby 2.1. - -If your SSG needs [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/) to build, you'll -need to specify which image you want to use, and this image should -contain NodeJS as part of its file system. E.g., for a -[Hexo](https://gitlab.com/pages/hexo) site, you can use `image: node:4.2.2`. - ->**Note:** -We're not trying to explain what a Docker image is, -we just need to introduce the concept with a minimum viable -explanation. To know more about Docker images, please visit -their website or take a look at a -[summarized explanation](http://paislee.io/how-to-automate-docker-deployments/) here. - -Let's go a little further. - -### Branching - -If you use GitLab as a version control platform, you will have your -branching strategy to work on your project. Meaning, you will have -other branches in your project, but you'll want only pushes to the -default branch (usually `master`) to be deployed to your website. -To do that, we need to add another line to our CI, telling the Runner -to only perform that _job_ called `pages` on the `master` branch `only`: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -pages: - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master -``` - -### Stages - -Another interesting concept to keep in mind are build stages. -Your web app can pass through a lot of tests and other tasks -until it's deployed to staging or production environments. -There are three default stages on GitLab CI: build, test, -and deploy. To specify which stage your _job_ is running, -simply add another line to your CI: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -pages: - stage: deploy - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master -``` - -You might ask yourself: "why should I bother with stages -at all?" Well, let's say you want to be able to test your -script and check the built site before deploying your site -to production. You want to run the test exactly as your -script will do when you push to `master`. It's simple, -let's add another task (_job_) to our CI, telling it to -test every push to other branches, `except` the `master` branch: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -pages: - stage: deploy - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master - -test: - stage: test - script: - - bundle install - - bundle exec jekyll build -d test - artifacts: - paths: - - test - except: - - master -``` - -The `test` job is running on the stage `test`, Jekyll -will build the site in a directory called `test`, and -this job will affect all the branches except `master`. - -The best benefit of applying _stages_ to different -_jobs_ is that every job in the same stage builds in -parallel. So, if your web app needs more than one test -before being deployed, you can run all your test at the -same time, it's not necessary to wait one test to finish -to run the other. Of course, this is just a brief -introduction of GitLab CI and GitLab Runner, which are -tools much more powerful than that. This is what you -need to be able to create and tweak your builds for -your GitLab Pages site. - -### Before Script - -To avoid running the same script multiple times across -your _jobs_, you can add the parameter `before_script`, -in which you specify which commands you want to run for -every single _job_. In our example, notice that we run -`bundle install` for both jobs, `pages` and `test`. -We don't need to repeat it: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -before_script: - - bundle install - -pages: - stage: deploy - script: - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master - -test: - stage: test - script: - - bundle exec jekyll build -d test - artifacts: - paths: - - test - except: - - master -``` - -### Caching Dependencies - -If you want to cache the installation files for your -projects dependencies, for building faster, you can -use the parameter `cache`. For this example, we'll -cache Jekyll dependencies in a `vendor` directory -when we run `bundle install`: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.3 - -cache: - paths: - - vendor/ - -before_script: - - bundle install --path vendor - -pages: - stage: deploy - script: - - bundle exec jekyll build -d public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master - -test: - stage: test - script: - - bundle exec jekyll build -d test - artifacts: - paths: - - test - except: - - master -``` - -For this specific case, we need to exclude `/vendor` -from Jekyll `_config.yml` file, otherwise Jekyll will -understand it as a regular directory to build -together with the site: - -```yml -exclude: - - vendor -``` - -There we go! Now our GitLab CI not only builds our website, -but also **continuously test** pushes to feature-branches, -**caches** dependencies installed with Bundler, and -**continuously deploy** every push to the `master` branch. - -## Advanced GitLab CI for GitLab Pages - -What you can do with GitLab CI is pretty much up to your -creativity. Once you get used to it, you start creating -awesome scripts that automate most of tasks you'd do -manually in the past.

Once you enable +GitLab Pages for this project, the site will live under +`https://websites.gitlab.io/blog/`. + +**User and Group Websites:** + +- Under your username, `john`, you created a project called +`john.gitlab.io`.

Once you enable GitLab Pages for your project, +your website will be published under `https://websites.gitlab.io`. + +**General example:** + +- On GitLab.com, a project site will always be available under +`https://namespace.gitlab.io/project-name` +- On GitLab.com, a user or group website will be available under +`https://namespace.gitlab.io/` +- On your GitLab instance, replace `gitlab.io` above with your +Pages server domain. Ask your sysadmin for this information. + +### DNS Records + +A Domain Name System (DNS) web service routes visitors to websites +by translating domain names (such as `www.example.com`) into the +numeric IP addresses (such as `192.0.2.1`) that computers use to +connect to each other. + +A DNS record is created to point a (sub)domain to a certain location, +which can be an IP address or another domain. In case you want to use +GitLab Pages with your own (sub)domain, you need to access your domain's +registrar control panel to add a DNS record pointing it back to your +GitLab Pages site. + +Note that **how to** add DNS records depends on which server your domain +is hosted on. Every control panel has its own place to do it. If you are +not an admin of your domain, and don't have access to your registrar, +you'll need to ask for the technical support of your hosting service +to do it for you. + +To help you out, we've gathered some instructions on how to do that +for the most popular hosting services: + +- [Amazon](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/gettingstarted/latest/swh/getting-started-configure-route53.html) +- [Bluehost](https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/559) +- [CloudFlare](https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200169096-How-do-I-add-A-records-) +- [cPanel](https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/Edit+DNS+Zone) +- [DreamHost](https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/215414867-How-do-I-add-custom-DNS-records-) +- [Go Daddy](https://www.godaddy.com/help/add-an-a-record-19238) +- [Hostgator](http://support.hostgator.com/articles/changing-dns-records) +- [Inmotion hosting](https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/559) +- [Media Temple](https://mediatemple.net/community/products/dv/204403794/how-can-i-change-the-dns-records-for-my-domain) +- [Microsoft](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727018.aspx) + +If your hosting service is not listed above, you can just try to +search the web for "how to add dns record on <my hosting service>". + +#### DNS A record + +In case you want to point a root domain (`example.com`) to your +GitLab Pages site, deployed to `namespace.gitlab.io`, you need to +log into your domain's admin control panel and add a DNS `A` record +pointing your domain to Pages' server IP address. For projects on +GitLab.com, this IP is `104.208.235.32`. For projects leaving in +other GitLab instances (CE or EE), please contact your sysadmin +asking for this information (which IP address is Pages server +running on your instance). + +**Practical Example:** + + + +#### DNS CNAME record + +In case you want to point a subdomain (`hello-world.example.com`) +to your GitLab Pages site initially deployed to `namespace.gitlab.io`, +you need to log into your domain's admin control panel and add a DNS +`CNAME` record pointing your subdomain to your website URL +(`namespace.gitlab.io`) address. + +Notice that, despite it's a user or project website, the `CNAME` +should point to your Pages domain (`namespace.gitlab.io`), +without any `/project-name`. + +**Practical Example:** + + + +#### TL;DR + +| From | DNS Record | To | +| ---- | ---------- | -- | +| domain.com | A | 104.208.235.32 | +| subdomain.domain.com | CNAME | namespace.gitlab.io | + +> **Notes**: +> +> - **Do not** use a CNAME record if you want to point your +`domain.com` to your GitLab Pages site. Use an `A` record instead. +> - **Do not** add any special chars after the default Pages +domain. E.g., **do not** point your `subdomain.domain.com` to +`namespace.gitlab.io.` or `namespace.gitlab.io/`. + +### SSL/TLS Certificates + +Every GitLab Pages project on GitLab.com will be available under +HTTPS for the default Pages domain (`*.gitlab.io`). Once you set +up your Pages project with your custom (sub)domain, if you want +it secured by HTTPS, you will have to issue a certificate for that +(sub)domain and install it on your project. + +>**Note:** +Certificates are NOT required to add to your custom +(sub)domain on your GitLab Pages project, though they are +highly recommendable. + +The importance of having any website securely served under HTTPS +is explained on the introductory section of the blog post +[Secure GitLab Pages with StartSSL](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/06/24/secure-gitlab-pages-with-startssl/#https-a-quick-overview). + +The reason why certificates are so important is that they encrypt +the connection between the **client** (you, me, your visitors) +and the **server** (where you site lives), through a keychain of +authentications and validations. + +### Issuing Certificates + +GitLab Pages accepts [PEM](https://support.quovadisglobal.com/kb/a37/what-is-pem-format.aspx) certificates issued by +[Certificate Authorities (CA)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_authority) +and self-signed certificates. Of course, +[you'd rather issue a certificate than generate a self-signed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-signed_certificate), +for security reasons and for having browsers trusting your +site's certificate. + +There are several different kinds of certificates, each one +with certain security level. A static personal website will +not require the same security level as an online banking web app, +for instance. There are a couple Certificate Authorities that +offer free certificates, aiming to make the internet more secure +to everyone. The most popular is [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/), +which issues certificates trusted by most of browsers, it's open +source, and free to use. Please read through this tutorial to +understand [how to secure your GitLab Pages website with Let's Encrypt](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/04/11/tutorial-securing-your-gitlab-pages-with-tls-and-letsencrypt/). + +With the same popularity, there are [certificates issued by CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/ssl/), +which also offers a [free CDN service](https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflares-free-cdn-and-you/). +Their certs are valid up to 15 years. Read through the tutorial on +[how to add a CloudFlare Certificate to your GitLab Pages website](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/). + +### Adding certificates to your project + +Regardless the CA you choose, the steps to add your certificate to +your Pages project are the same. + +#### What do you need + +1. A PEM certificate +1. An intermediate certificate +1. A public key + + + +These fields are found under your **Project**'s **Settings** > **Pages** > **New Domain**. + +#### What's what? + +- A PEM certificate is the certificate generated by the CA, +which needs to be added to the field **Certificate (PEM)**. +- An [intermediate certificate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_certificate_authority) (aka "root certificate") is +the part of the encryption keychain that identifies the CA. +Usually it's combined with the PEM certificate, but there are +some cases in which you need to add them manually. +[CloudFlare certs](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/) +are one of these cases. +- A public key is an encrypted key which validates +your PEM against your domain. + +#### Now what? + +Now that you hopefully understand why you need all +of this, it's simple: + +- Your PEM certificate needs to be added to the first field +- If your certificate is missing its intermediate, copy +and paste the root certificate (usually available from your CA website) +and paste it in the [same field as your PEM certificate](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/02/07/setting-up-gitlab-pages-with-cloudflare-certificates/), +just jumping a line between them. +- Copy your public key and paste it in the last field + +>**Note:** +**Do not** open certificates or encryption keys in +regular text editors.

You will need it to build your website with GitLab Pages, +and deploy it to the Pages server. + +What this file actually does is telling the +[GitLab Runner](https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/) to run scripts +as you would do from the command line. The Runner acts as your +terminal. GitLab CI tells the Runner which commands to run. +Both are built-in in GitLab, and you don't need to set up +anything for them to work. + +Explaining [every detail of GitLab CI](https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/ci/yaml/README.html) +and GitLab Runner is out of the scope of this guide, but we'll +need to understand just a few things to be able to write our own +`.gitlab-ci.yml` or tweak an existing one. It's an +[Yaml](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/YAMLSyntax.html) file, +with its own syntax. You can always check your CI syntax with +the [GitLab CI Lint Tool](https://gitlab.com/ci/lint). + +**Practical Example:** + +Let's consider you have a [Jekyll](https://jekyllrb.com/) site. +To build it locally, you would open your terminal, and run `jekyll build`. +Of course, before building it, you had to install Jekyll in your computer. +For that, you had to open your terminal and run `gem install jekyll`. +Right? GitLab CI + GitLab Runner do the same thing. But you need to +write in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` the script you want to run so +GitLab Runner will do it for you. It looks more complicated then it +is. What you need to tell the Runner: + +``` +$ gem install jekyll +$ jekyll build +``` + +### Script + +To transpose this script to Yaml, it would be like this: + +```yaml +script: + - gem install jekyll + - jekyll build +``` + +### Job + +So far so good. Now, each `script`, in GitLab is organized by +a `job`, which is a bunch of scripts and settings you want to +apply to that specific task. + +```yaml +job: + script: + - gem install jekyll + - jekyll build +``` + +For GitLab Pages, this `job` has a specific name, called `pages`, +which tells the Runner you want that task to deploy your website +with GitLab Pages: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - gem install jekyll + - jekyll build +``` + +### The `public` directory + +We also need to tell Jekyll where do you want the website to build, +and GitLab Pages will only consider files in a directory called `public`. +To do that with Jekyll, we need to add a flag specifying the +[destination (`-d`)](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/usage/) of the +built website: `jekyll build -d public`. Of course, we need +to tell this to our Runner: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - gem install jekyll + - jekyll build -d public +``` + +### Artifacts + +We also need to tell the Runner that this _job_ generates +_artifacts_, which is the site built by Jekyll. +Where are these artifacts stored? In the `public` directory: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - gem install jekyll + - jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public +``` + +The script above would be enough to build your Jekyll +site with GitLab Pages. But, from Jekyll 3.4.0 on, its default +template originated by `jekyll new project` requires +[Bundler](http://bundler.io/) to install Jekyll dependencies +and the default theme. To adjust our script to meet these new +requirements, we only need to install and build Jekyll with Bundler: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public +``` + +That's it! A `.gitlab-ci.yml` with the content above would deploy +your Jekyll 3.4.0 site with GitLab Pages. This is the minimum +configuration for our example. On the steps below, we'll refine +the script by adding extra options to our GitLab CI. + +### Image + +At this point, you probably ask yourself: "okay, but to install Jekyll +I need Ruby. Where is Ruby on that script?". The answer is simple: the +first thing GitLab Runner will look for in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` is a +[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) image specifying what do you need in +your container to run that script: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +pages: + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public +``` + +In this case, you're telling the Runner to pull this image, which +contains Ruby 2.3 as part of its file system. When you don't specify +this image in your configuration, the Runner will use a default +image, which is Ruby 2.1. + +If your SSG needs [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/) to build, you'll +need to specify which image you want to use, and this image should +contain NodeJS as part of its file system. E.g., for a +[Hexo](https://gitlab.com/pages/hexo) site, you can use `image: node:4.2.2`. + +>**Note:** +We're not trying to explain what a Docker image is, +we just need to introduce the concept with a minimum viable +explanation. To know more about Docker images, please visit +their website or take a look at a +[summarized explanation](http://paislee.io/how-to-automate-docker-deployments/) here. + +Let's go a little further. + +### Branching + +If you use GitLab as a version control platform, you will have your +branching strategy to work on your project. Meaning, you will have +other branches in your project, but you'll want only pushes to the +default branch (usually `master`) to be deployed to your website. +To do that, we need to add another line to our CI, telling the Runner +to only perform that _job_ called `pages` on the `master` branch `only`: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +pages: + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master +``` + +### Stages + +Another interesting concept to keep in mind are build stages. +Your web app can pass through a lot of tests and other tasks +until it's deployed to staging or production environments. +There are three default stages on GitLab CI: build, test, +and deploy. To specify which stage your _job_ is running, +simply add another line to your CI: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +pages: + stage: deploy + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master +``` + +You might ask yourself: "why should I bother with stages +at all?" Well, let's say you want to be able to test your +script and check the built site before deploying your site +to production. You want to run the test exactly as your +script will do when you push to `master`. It's simple, +let's add another task (_job_) to our CI, telling it to +test every push to other branches, `except` the `master` branch: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +pages: + stage: deploy + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master + +test: + stage: test + script: + - bundle install + - bundle exec jekyll build -d test + artifacts: + paths: + - test + except: + - master +``` + +The `test` job is running on the stage `test`, Jekyll +will build the site in a directory called `test`, and +this job will affect all the branches except `master`. + +The best benefit of applying _stages_ to different +_jobs_ is that every job in the same stage builds in +parallel. So, if your web app needs more than one test +before being deployed, you can run all your test at the +same time, it's not necessary to wait one test to finish +to run the other. Of course, this is just a brief +introduction of GitLab CI and GitLab Runner, which are +tools much more powerful than that. This is what you +need to be able to create and tweak your builds for +your GitLab Pages site. + +### Before Script + +To avoid running the same script multiple times across +your _jobs_, you can add the parameter `before_script`, +in which you specify which commands you want to run for +every single _job_. In our example, notice that we run +`bundle install` for both jobs, `pages` and `test`. +We don't need to repeat it: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +before_script: + - bundle install + +pages: + stage: deploy + script: + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master + +test: + stage: test + script: + - bundle exec jekyll build -d test + artifacts: + paths: + - test + except: + - master +``` + +### Caching Dependencies + +If you want to cache the installation files for your +projects dependencies, for building faster, you can +use the parameter `cache`. For this example, we'll +cache Jekyll dependencies in a `vendor` directory +when we run `bundle install`: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.3 + +cache: + paths: + - vendor/ + +before_script: + - bundle install --path vendor + +pages: + stage: deploy + script: + - bundle exec jekyll build -d public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master + +test: + stage: test + script: + - bundle exec jekyll build -d test + artifacts: + paths: + - test + except: + - master +``` + +For this specific case, we need to exclude `/vendor` +from Jekyll `_config.yml` file, otherwise Jekyll will +understand it as a regular directory to build +together with the site: + +```yml +exclude: + - vendor +``` + +There we go! Now our GitLab CI not only builds our website, +but also **continuously test** pushes to feature-branches, +**caches** dependencies installed with Bundler, and +**continuously deploy** every push to the `master` branch. + +## Advanced GitLab CI for GitLab Pages + +What you can do with GitLab CI is pretty much up to your +creativity.

Do do that, please +read through the article [Creating and Tweaking `.gitlab-ci.yml` for GitLab Pages](getting_started_part_three.md). New SSGs are very welcome among +the [example projects](https://gitlab.com/pages). If you set +up a new one, please +[contribute](https://gitlab.com/pages/pages.gitlab.io/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) +to our examples. +> +> - The second step _"Clone it to your local computer"_, can be done +differently, achieving the same results: instead of cloning the bare +repository to you local computer and moving your site files into it, +you can run `git init` in your local website directory, add the +remote URL: `git remote add origin git@gitlab.com:namespace/project-name.git`, +then add, commit, and push. + +### URLs and Baseurls + +Every Static Site Generator (SSG) default configuration expects +to find your website under a (sub)domain (`example.com`), not +in a subdirectory of that domain (`example.com/subdir`). Therefore, +whenever you publish a project website (`namespace.gitlab.io/project-name`), +you'll have to look for this configuration (base URL) on your SSG's +documentation and set it up to reflect this pattern. + +For example, for a Jekyll site, the `baseurl` is defined in the Jekyll +configuration file, `_config.yml`. If your website URL is +`https://john.gitlab.io/blog/`, you need to add this line to `_config.yml`: + +```yaml +baseurl: "/blog" +``` + +On the contrary, if you deploy your website after forking one of +our [default examples](https://gitlab.com/pages), the baseurl will +already be configured this way, as all examples there are project +websites. If you decide to make yours a user or group website, you'll +have to remove this configuration from your project. For the Jekyll +example we've just mentioned, you'd have to change Jekyll's `_config.yml` to: + +```yaml +baseurl: "" +``` + +||| +|:--|--:| +|[**← Part 1: Static sites, domains, DNS records, and SSL/TLS certificates**](getting_started_part_one.md)|[**Part 3: Creating and tweaking `.gitlab-ci.yml` for GitLab Pages →**](getting_started_part_three.md)| diff --git a/doc/pages/img/add_certificate_to_pages.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/add_certificate_to_pages.png Binary files differindex d92a981dc60..d92a981dc60 100644 --- a/doc/pages/img/add_certificate_to_pages.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/add_certificate_to_pages.png diff --git a/doc/pages/img/choose_ci_template.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/choose_ci_template.png Binary files differindex 0697542abc8..0697542abc8 100644 --- a/doc/pages/img/choose_ci_template.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/choose_ci_template.png diff --git a/doc/pages/img/dns_a_record_example.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/dns_a_record_example.png Binary files differindex b923730388a..b923730388a 100644 --- a/doc/pages/img/dns_a_record_example.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/dns_a_record_example.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/dns_cname_record_example.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/dns_cname_record_example.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 00000000000..43d1a838544 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/dns_cname_record_example.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_project.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_project.png Binary files differindex a936d8e5dbd..be47f9d2a44 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_project.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_project.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_user_page.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_user_page.png Binary files differindex 3f615d3757d..2f1a19ae424 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_user_page.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_create_user_page.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_dns_details.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_dns_details.png Binary files differindex 8d34f3b7f38..274e98fde4d 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_dns_details.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_dns_details.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_multiple_domains.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_multiple_domains.png Binary files differindex 2bc7cee07a6..6bc92db6b41 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_multiple_domains.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_multiple_domains.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_new_domain_button.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_new_domain_button.png Binary files differindex c3640133bb2..cd59defa006 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_new_domain_button.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_new_domain_button.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_remove.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_remove.png Binary files differindex adbfb654877..b064310380e 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_remove.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_remove.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_upload_cert.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_upload_cert.png Binary files differindex 06d85ab1971..dc431ea3fef 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_upload_cert.png +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/pages_upload_cert.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/remove_fork_relashionship.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/remove_fork_relashionship.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 00000000000..67c45491f08 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/remove_fork_relashionship.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/img/setup_ci.png b/doc/user/project/pages/img/setup_ci.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 00000000000..214c1cc668f --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/img/setup_ci.png diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/index.md b/doc/user/project/pages/index.md index 276fbd26835..dbb9d9ad9c4 100644 --- a/doc/user/project/pages/index.md +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/index.md @@ -1,449 +1,49 @@ -# GitLab Pages +# All you need to know about GitLab Pages -> **Notes:** -> - This feature was [introduced][ee-80] in GitLab EE 8.3. -> - Custom CNAMEs with TLS support were [introduced][ee-173] in GitLab EE 8.5. -> - GitLab Pages [were ported][ce-14605] to Community Edition in GitLab 8.17. -> - This document is about the user guide.

If you don't limit the -`pages` job with the [`only` parameter](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#only-and-except), -whenever a new commit is pushed to whatever branch or tag, the Pages will be -overwritten. In the example below, we limit the Pages to be deployed whenever -a commit is pushed only on the `master` branch: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - my_commands - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master -``` - -We then tell the Runner to treat the `public/` directory as `artifacts` and -upload it to GitLab. And since all these parameters were all under a `pages` -job, the contents of the `public` directory will be served by GitLab Pages. - -#### How `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like when the static content is in your repository - -Supposedly your repository contained the following files: - -``` -├── index.html -├── css -│ └── main.css -└── js - └── main.js -``` - -Then the `.gitlab-ci.yml` example below simply moves all files from the root -directory of the project to the `public/` directory. The `.public` workaround -is so `cp` doesn't also copy `public/` to itself in an infinite loop: - -```yaml -pages: - script: - - mkdir .public - - cp -r * .public - - mv .public public - artifacts: - paths: - - public - only: - - master -``` - -#### How `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like when using a static generator - -In general, GitLab Pages support any kind of [static site generator][staticgen], -since `.gitlab-ci.yml` can be configured to run any possible command. - -In the root directory of your Git repository, place the source files of your -favorite static generator. Then provide a `.gitlab-ci.yml` file which is -specific to your static generator. - -The example below, uses [Jekyll] to build the static site: - -```yaml -image: ruby:2.1 # the script will run in Ruby 2.1 using the Docker image ruby:2.1 - -pages: # the build job must be named pages - script: - - gem install jekyll # we install jekyll - - jekyll build -d public/ # we tell jekyll to build the site for us - artifacts: - paths: - - public # this is where the site will live and the Runner uploads it in GitLab - only: - - master # this script is only affecting the master branch -``` - -Here, we used the Docker executor and in the first line we specified the base -image against which our jobs will run. - -You have to make sure that the generated static files are ultimately placed -under the `public` directory, that's why in the `script` section we run the -`jekyll` command that jobs the website and puts all content in the `public/` -directory.

Let's check -what more you can do with GitLab Pages. - -### Example projects - -Below is a list of example projects for GitLab Pages with a plain HTML website -or various static site generators. Contributions are very welcome. - -- [Plain HTML](https://gitlab.com/pages/plain-html) -- [Jekyll](https://gitlab.com/pages/jekyll) -- [Hugo](https://gitlab.com/pages/hugo) -- [Middleman](https://gitlab.com/pages/middleman) -- [Hexo](https://gitlab.com/pages/hexo) -- [Brunch](https://gitlab.com/pages/brunch) -- [Metalsmith](https://gitlab.com/pages/metalsmith) -- [Harp](https://gitlab.com/pages/harp) - -Visit the GitLab Pages group for a full list of example projects: -<https://gitlab.com/groups/pages>. - -### Add a custom domain to your Pages website - -If this setting is enabled by your GitLab administrator, you should be able to -see the **New Domain** button when visiting your project's settings through the -gear icon in the top right and then navigating to **Pages**. - - - ---- - -You can add multiple domains pointing to your website hosted under GitLab. -Once the domain is added, you can see it listed under the **Domains** section. - - - ---- - -As a last step, you need to configure your DNS and add a CNAME pointing to your -user/group page. Click on the **Details** button of a domain for further -instructions. - - - ---- - ->**Note:** -Currently there is support only for custom domains on per-project basis. That -means that if you add a custom domain (`example.com`) for your user website -(`username.example.io`), a project that is served under `username.example.io/foo`, -will not be accessible under `example.com/foo`. - -### Secure your custom domain website with TLS - -When you add a new custom domain, you also have the chance to add a TLS -certificate. If this setting is enabled by your GitLab administrator, you -should be able to see the option to upload the public certificate and the -private key when adding a new domain. - - - -### Custom error codes pages - -You can provide your own 403 and 404 error pages by creating the `403.html` and -`404.html` files respectively in the root directory of the `public/` directory -that will be included in the artifacts. Usually this is the root directory of -your project, but that may differ depending on your static generator -configuration. - -If the case of `404.html`, there are different scenarios. For example: - -- If you use project Pages (served under `/projectname/`) and try to access - `/projectname/non/exsiting_file`, GitLab Pages will try to serve first - `/projectname/404.html`, and then `/404.html`. -- If you use user/group Pages (served under `/`) and try to access - `/non/existing_file` GitLab Pages will try to serve `/404.html`. -- If you use a custom domain and try to access `/non/existing_file`, GitLab - Pages will try to serve only `/404.html`. - -### Remove the contents of your pages - -If you ever feel the need to purge your Pages content, you can do so by going -to your project's settings through the gear icon in the top right, and then -navigating to **Pages**. Hit the **Remove pages** button and your Pages website -will be deleted. Simple as that. - - - -## GitLab Pages on GitLab.com - -If you are using GitLab.com to host your website, then: - -- The general domain name for GitLab Pages on GitLab.com is `gitlab.io`. -- Custom domains and TLS support are enabled. -- Shared runners are enabled by default, provided for free and can be used to - build your website. If you want you can still bring your own Runner. - -The rest of the guide still applies. - -## Limitations - -When using Pages under the general domain of a GitLab instance (`*.example.io`), -you _cannot_ use HTTPS with sub-subdomains. That means that if your -username/groupname contains a dot, for example `foo.bar`, the domain -`https://foo.bar.example.io` will _not_ work. This is a limitation of the -[HTTP Over TLS protocol][rfc]. HTTP pages will continue to work provided you -don't redirect HTTP to HTTPS. - -[rfc]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2818#section-3.1 "HTTP Over TLS RFC" - -## Redirects in GitLab Pages - -Since you cannot use any custom server configuration files, like `.htaccess` or -any `.conf` file for that matter, if you want to redirect a web page to another -location, you can use the [HTTP meta refresh tag][metarefresh]. - -Some static site generators provide plugins for that functionality so that you -don't have to create and edit HTML files manually. For example, Jekyll has the -[redirect-from plugin](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-redirect-from). - -## Frequently Asked Questions - -### Can I download my generated pages? - -Sure. All you need to do is download the artifacts archive from the job page. - -### Can I use GitLab Pages if my project is private? - -Yes. GitLab Pages don't care whether you set your project's visibility level -to private, internal or public. - -### Do I need to create a user/group website before creating a project website? - -No, you don't. You can create your project first and it will be accessed under -`http(s)://namespace.example.io/projectname`. - -## Known issues - -For a list of known issues, visit GitLab's [public issue tracker]. - ---- - -[jekyll]: http://jekyllrb.com/ -[ee-80]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/80 -[ee-173]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/173 -[pages-daemon]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages -[gitlab ci]: https://about.gitlab.com/gitlab-ci -[gitlab runner]: https://docs.gitlab.com/runner -[pages]: ../../../ci/yaml/README.md#pages -[yaml]: ../../../ci/yaml/README.md -[staticgen]: https://www.staticgen.com/ -[pages-jekyll]: https://gitlab.com/pages/jekyll -[metarefresh]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_refresh -[public issue tracker]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues?label_name=Pages -[ce-14605]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/14605 -[quick start guide]: ../../../ci/quick_start/README.md -[pages-index-guide]: ../../../pages/index.md -[pages-quick]: ../../../pages/getting_started_part_one.md -[video-pages-fork]: https://youtu.be/TWqh9MtT4Bg +- [User docs](introduction.md) +- [Admin docs](../../../administration/pages/index.md) diff --git a/doc/user/project/pages/introduction.md b/doc/user/project/pages/introduction.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..deaceabb7c5 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/user/project/pages/introduction.md @@ -0,0 +1,447 @@ +# GitLab Pages + +> **Notes:** +> - This feature was [introduced][ee-80] in GitLab EE 8.3. +> - Custom CNAMEs with TLS support were [introduced][ee-173] in GitLab EE 8.5. +> - GitLab Pages [were ported][ce-14605] to Community Edition in GitLab 8.17. +> - This document is about the user guide.

There can be only one namespace in a GitLab instance. Below you +can see the connection between the type of GitLab Pages, what the project name +that is created on GitLab looks like and the website URL it will be ultimately +be served on. + +| Type of GitLab Pages | The name of the project created in GitLab | Website URL | +| -------------------- | ------------ | ----------- | +| User pages | `username.example.io` | `http(s)://username.example.io` | +| Group pages | `groupname.example.io` | `http(s)://groupname.example.io` | +| Project pages owned by a user | `projectname` | `http(s)://username.example.io/projectname` | +| Project pages owned by a group | `projectname` | `http(s)://groupname.example.io/projectname`| + +> **Warning:** +> There are some known [limitations](#limitations) regarding namespaces served +> under the general domain name and HTTPS. Make sure to read that section. + +### GitLab Pages requirements + +In brief, this is what you need to upload your website in GitLab Pages: + +1. Find out the general domain name that is used for GitLab Pages + (ask your administrator). This is very important, so you should first make + sure you get that right. +1. Create a project +1. Push a [`.gitlab-ci.yml` file][yaml] in the root directory + of your repository with a specific job named [`pages`][pages] +1. Set up a GitLab Runner to build your website + +> **Note:** +If [shared runners](../../../ci/runners/README.md) are enabled by your GitLab +administrator, you should be able to use them instead of bringing your own. + +### User or group Pages + +For user and group pages, the name of the project should be specific to the +username or groupname and the general domain name that is used for GitLab Pages. +Head over your GitLab instance that supports GitLab Pages and create a +repository named `username.example.io`, where `username` is your username on +GitLab. If the first part of the project name doesn't match exactly your +username, it won’t work, so make sure to get it right. + +To create a group page, the steps are the same like when creating a website for +users. Just make sure that you are creating the project within the group's +namespace. + + + +--- + +After you push some static content to your repository and GitLab Runner uploads +the artifacts to GitLab CI, you will be able to access your website under +`http(s)://username.example.io`. Keep reading to find out how. + +>**Note:** +If your username/groupname contains a dot, for example `foo.bar`, you will not +be able to use the wildcard domain HTTPS, read more at [limitations](#limitations). + +### Project Pages + +GitLab Pages for projects can be created by both user and group accounts. +The steps to create a project page for a user or a group are identical: + +1. Create a new project +1. Push a [`.gitlab-ci.yml` file][yaml] in the root directory + of your repository with a specific job named [`pages`][pages]. +1. Set up a GitLab Runner to build your website + +A user's project will be served under `http(s)://username.example.io/projectname` +whereas a group's project under `http(s)://groupname.example.io/projectname`. + +## Quick Start + +Read through [GitLab Pages Quick Start Guide][pages-quick] or watch the video tutorial on +[how to publish a website with GitLab Pages on GitLab.com from a forked project][video-pages-fork]. + +See also [All you Need to Know About GitLab Pages][pages-index-guide] for a list with all the resources we have for GitLab Pages. + +### Explore the contents of `.gitlab-ci.yml` + +The key thing about GitLab Pages is the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file, something that +gives you absolute control over the build process. You can actually watch your +website being built live by following the CI job traces. + +> **Note:** +> Before reading this section, make sure you familiarize yourself with GitLab CI +> and the specific syntax of[`.gitlab-ci.yml`][yaml] by +> following our [quick start guide]. + +To make use of GitLab Pages, the contents of `.gitlab-ci.yml` must follow the +rules below: + +1. A special job named [`pages`][pages] must be defined +1. Any static content which will be served by GitLab Pages must be placed under + a `public/` directory +1. `artifacts` with a path to the `public/` directory must be defined + +In its simplest form, `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - my_commands + artifacts: + paths: + - public +``` + +When the Runner reaches to build the `pages` job, it executes whatever is +defined in the `script` parameter and if the job completes with a non-zero +exit status, it then uploads the `public/` directory to GitLab Pages. + +The `public/` directory should contain all the static content of your website. +Depending on how you plan to publish your website, the steps defined in the +[`script` parameter](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#script) may differ. + +Be aware that Pages are by default branch/tag agnostic and their deployment +relies solely on what you specify in `.gitlab-ci.yml`. If you don't limit the +`pages` job with the [`only` parameter](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#only-and-except), +whenever a new commit is pushed to whatever branch or tag, the Pages will be +overwritten. In the example below, we limit the Pages to be deployed whenever +a commit is pushed only on the `master` branch: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - my_commands + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master +``` + +We then tell the Runner to treat the `public/` directory as `artifacts` and +upload it to GitLab. And since all these parameters were all under a `pages` +job, the contents of the `public` directory will be served by GitLab Pages. + +#### How `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like when the static content is in your repository + +Supposedly your repository contained the following files: + +``` +├── index.html +├── css +│ └── main.css +└── js + └── main.js +``` + +Then the `.gitlab-ci.yml` example below simply moves all files from the root +directory of the project to the `public/` directory. The `.public` workaround +is so `cp` doesn't also copy `public/` to itself in an infinite loop: + +```yaml +pages: + script: + - mkdir .public + - cp -r * .public + - mv .public public + artifacts: + paths: + - public + only: + - master +``` + +#### How `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like when using a static generator + +In general, GitLab Pages support any kind of [static site generator][staticgen], +since `.gitlab-ci.yml` can be configured to run any possible command. + +In the root directory of your Git repository, place the source files of your +favorite static generator. Then provide a `.gitlab-ci.yml` file which is +specific to your static generator. + +The example below, uses [Jekyll] to build the static site: + +```yaml +image: ruby:2.1 # the script will run in Ruby 2.1 using the Docker image ruby:2.1 + +pages: # the build job must be named pages + script: + - gem install jekyll # we install jekyll + - jekyll build -d public/ # we tell jekyll to build the site for us + artifacts: + paths: + - public # this is where the site will live and the Runner uploads it in GitLab + only: + - master # this script is only affecting the master branch +``` + +Here, we used the Docker executor and in the first line we specified the base +image against which our jobs will run. + +You have to make sure that the generated static files are ultimately placed +under the `public` directory, that's why in the `script` section we run the +`jekyll` command that jobs the website and puts all content in the `public/` +directory. Depending on the static generator of your choice, this command will +differ. Search in the documentation of the static generator you will use if +there is an option to explicitly set the output directory. If there is not +such an option, you can always add one more line under `script` to rename the +resulting directory in `public/`. + +We then tell the Runner to treat the `public/` directory as `artifacts` and +upload it to GitLab. + +--- + +See the [jekyll example project][pages-jekyll] to better understand how this +works. + +For a list of Pages projects, see the [example projects](#example-projects) to +get you started. + +#### How to set up GitLab Pages in a repository where there's also actual code + +Remember that GitLab Pages are by default branch/tag agnostic and their +deployment relies solely on what you specify in `.gitlab-ci.yml`.
