Follow the Jekyll Docs to complete the installation of Ruby
, RubyGems
, Jekyll
and Bundler
.
There are two ways to get the theme:
- Install from RubyGems
- Fork from GitHub
Add this line to your Jekyll site's Gemfile
:
gem "jekyll-theme-chirpy"
And add this line to your Jekyll site's _config.yml
:
theme: jekyll-theme-chirpy
And then execute:
$ bundle
Finally, copy the extra files (refer to the starter project for the detailed file directory structure) from the theme's gem to your Jekyll site, and append all the variables of the theme's _config.yml
to your Jekyll site.
Hint: To locate the theme’s gem, execute:
$ bundle info --path jekyll-theme-chirpy
Or you can use the starter template to create a Jekyll site to save time copying contents from theme's gem.
Fork Chirpy from GitHub and clone your fork to local.
Install gem dependencies by:
$ bundle
And then execute:
$ bash tools/init.sh
Note: If you don't plan to deploy your site on GitHub Pages, append parameter option
--no-gh
at the end of the above command.
What it does is:
-
Remove some files or directories from your repository:
.travis.yml
- files under
_posts
- folder
docs
-
If you use the
--no-gh
option, the directory.github
will be deleted. Otherwise, setup the GitHub Action workflow by removing extension.hook
of.github/workflows/pages-deploy.yml.hook
, and then remove the other files and directories in folder.github
. -
Automatically create a commit to save the changes.
Update the variables of _config.yml
as needed. Some of them are typical options:
url
avatar
timezone
theme_mode
You may want to preview the site contents before publishing, so just run it by:
$ bundle exec jekyll s
Or run the site on Docker with the following command:
$ docker run -it --rm \
--volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" \
-p 4000:4000 jekyll/jekyll \
jekyll serve
Open a browser and visit to http://localhost:4000.
Before the deployment begins, checkout the file _config.yml
and make sure the url
is configured correctly. Furthermore, if you prefer the project site and don't use a custom domain, or you want to visit your website with a base url on a web server other than GitHub Pages, remember to change the baseurl
to your project name that starting with a slash, e.g, /project-name
.
Now you can choose ONE of the following methods to deploy your Jekyll site.
For security reasons, GitHub Pages build runs on safe
mode, which restricts us from using plugins to generate additional page files. Therefore, we can use GitHub Actions to build the site, store the built site files on a new branch, and use that branch as the source of the GH Pages service.
Quickly check the files needed for GitHub Actions build:
- Ensure your Jekyll site has the file
/.github/workflows/pages-deploy.yml
. Otherwise, create a new one and fill in the contents of the workflow file, and the value of theon.push.branches
should be the same as your repo's default branch name. - Ensuer your Jekyll site has file
/tools/test.sh
and/tools/deploy.sh
. Otherwise, copy them from this repo to your Jekyll site.
Next, rename your repoistory to <GH-USERNAME>.github.io
on GitHub.
And then publish your Jekyll site by:
-
Push any commit to remote to trigger the GitHub Actions workflow. Once the build is complete and successful, a new remote branch named
gh-pages
will appear to store the built site files. -
Browse to your repo's landing page on GitHub and select the branch
gh-pages
as the publishing source throught Settings → Options → GitHub Pages: -
Visit your website at the address indicated by GitHub.
On platforms other than GitHub, we cannot enjoy the convenience of GitHub Actions. Therefore, we should build the site locally (or on some other 3rd-party CI platform) and then put the site files on the server.
Go to the root of the source project, build your site by:
$ JEKYLL_ENV=production bundle exec jekyll b
Or build the site with Docker by:
$ docker run -it --rm \
--env JEKYLL_ENV=production \
--volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" \
jekyll/jekyll \
jekyll build
Unless you specified the output path, the generated site files will be placed in folder _site
of the project's root directory. Now you should upload those files to your web server.
