# Github Pages With Drone Ci

To deploy github pages with Drone-ci you will need `.drone.yml` as specified below. You also should define secrets `github_username` and `github_token` (get it here) in your drone's repository setup.

Github repository should be named as `yourname.github.io` and it could be accessed at https://yourname.github.io/. Otherwise it'll be available at https://yourname.github.io/repo-name/, what you might not like.

You should create branch named `gh-pages` in that repo and setup GH Pages at `https://github.com/<yourusername>/<yourusername>.github.io/settings/pages`.

This config will update `gh-pages` branch in your project, which will contain only generated content. I know, that's bad, but there's no better way to do that with generic drone plugins.

Here we're moving `./.output/public` to `./docs`, because #nuxt creates symlink for `docs` and git can't work with that.

Also we create `.nojekyll` at the root of repo, so github's internal engine won't ignore files that start with underscore.
