Redirecting GitHub pages after a repository move

Redirecting GitHub Pages after a repository move

The problem

You have a repository, call it alice/repo. You would like to transfer it to the user bob, so it will become bob/repo.

However, you make heavy use of the GitHub Pages feature, so that people are often accessing https://alice.github.io/repo/. GitHub will helpfully redirect all of your repository stuff hosted on github.com after the move, but will not redirect the GitHub Pages hosted on github.io.

The solution

ServiceWorker that implements “Stale-while-revalidate”
// Implements stale-while-revalidate
self.addEventListener('fetch', event => {
const cached = caches.match(event.request);
const fetched = fetch(event.request);
const fetchedCopy = fetched.then(resp => resp.clone());
// Call respondWith() with whatever we get first.
// If the fetch fails (e.g disconnected), wait for the cache.
// If there’s nothing in cache, wait for the fetch.
// If neither yields a response, return a 404.

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.

I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.

Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable

Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.

my version of gpg on the mac
  1. brew install gnupg, pinentry-mac (this includes gpg-agent and pinentry)

  2. Generate a key: $ gpg --gen-key

  3. Take the defaults. Whatevs

  4. Tell gpg-agent to use pinentry-mac:

    $ vim ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf 
    
#!/bin/bash
LOCALADMIN="username"
kickstart=/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart
echo "Configuring Remote Management"
if id -u $LOCALADMIN >/dev/null 2>&1; then
echo "Defined local admin account exists"
# Deactivate ARD agent, deny all access
echo "Deactivating ARD agent"
