Create .gitlab-ci.yml for static site generation
This repository is provided on https://deeplearningindaba.com/grand-challenges/leishmaniasis/resources/ as a resource but this repository is somewhat needlessly opaque at first glance. Looking at the examples in this repository mandates downloading the files to view what is essentially a static website. Gitlab provides tools for static website creation and will host it for you for free. Adding a .gitlab-ci.yml file will enable gitlab to create a static website and serve it. This is useful for not only for casual browsing but particularly those on smartphones who are just getting a glance of this project.
On your part all you have to do is add this file as .gitlab-ci.yml to the repository (and perhaps link to the website in your description):
image: alpine:latest
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- echo '[1/3] Generating public folder'
- mkdir public
- echo '[2/3] Copying assets to public folder'
- ls -A | grep -Ev "public|.git" | while read file; do cp -r "$file" public; done
- echo '[3/3] Cast to index.html'
- mv public/*.html public/index.html
artifacts:
paths:
- public
only:
- master
On commit, gitlab will run a pipeline and automatically generate a static site for you.
