How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

Pre-conditions:

  1. Enable the pages unique domain feature flag

    Feature.enable(:pages_unique_domain)

  2. Create a new project using the Pages/Plain HTML template

  3. Run the project pipeline to create a gitlab-pages deploy

  4. Access the pages settings in Settings > Pages, like: http://gdk.test:3000/<project namespace>/pages

  5. Enable Use unique domain and click in Save changes

  6. Copy the URL in the Access pages > Your pages are served under: panel

  7. Remove the protocol and port from the URL and add it in you /etc/hosts pointing to localhost, something like:

    # Unique Domain
127.0.0.1  html-root-265cd6a7f146c5ae423a42292d2f66742749a886447617895e942.pages.gdk.test

  8. You must be able to access the URL (with the protocol and port) in your browser, which mean that the lookup by the unique domain worked! 🎉
