Using hugo with gitlab CI including review apps in gitlab pages	Kay Strobach	post	2022-07-29 10:56:01 +0000	Nützliches WebDev Gitlab hugo	/post/2022/07/29/hugo.html

I was asked on twitter wether hugo can be used with a ci tool to automatically upload the result via ftp.

And yes it's possible, this is basically, what I'm doing in this blog.

stages:
  - build
  - deploy



runHugoMaster:
  stage: build
  image: publysher/hugo:latest
  script:
    - git submodule init
    - git submodule update
    - hugo check
    - hugo --baseURL=$DOMAIN
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - public/*
    expire_in: 1 week
  cache:
    untracked: true
    paths:
      - public
  tags:
    - docker
  only:
    - master
    - main
  environment:
    name: production
    url: $DOMAIN

runHugoReview:
  stage: build
  image: jojomi/hugo:0.38
  script:
    - git submodule init
    - git submodule update
    - hugo check
    - hugo --baseURL=$DOMAIN/builds/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - public/*
    expire_in: 1 week
  cache:
    untracked: true
    paths:
      - public
  tags:
    - docker
  except:
    - master
  environment:
    name: review/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME
    url: https://blog.kay-strobach.de/builds/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME
    on_stop: stop_review

uploadResult:
  stage: deploy
  image: dockito/lftp-client
  script:
    - lftp -e "set dns:order inet; set sftp:auto-confirm yes; set ssl:verify-certificate no; set net:connection-limit 3; mirror --exclude ^\.git.* --exclude ^Resources/Private/ --exclude \.gitlab-ci.yaml -eRv  public builds/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME; quit;" ftp://$CREDENTIALS
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - public/*
  tags:
    - docker

stop_review:
  stage: deploy
  variables:
    GIT_STRATEGY: none
  image: dockito/lftp-client
  script:
    - lftp  -e "set dns:order inet; set sftp:auto-confirm yes; set ssl:verify-certificate no; set net:connection-limit 3; rm -r builds/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME; quit;" ftp://$CREDENTIALS
  when: manual
  except:
    - master
  environment:
    name: review/$CI_BUILD_REF_NAME
    action: stop
  tags:
    - docker

This pipeline consists of 4 jobs:

• runHugoMaster - builds the hugo artifacts for the main / default branch
• runHugoReview - does the same, but for the review apps
• uploadResult - uploads the resulting code to the publication server
• stop_review - deletes the preview
