and oh btw, this is also an example of how to use the GraphQL API with bb /cc @U0HFRSY0M

Amazing 😍 😍 😍 😍

Thank you Sir!

Just read the script. I guess it is used to build the readme file.

https://github.com/pink-gorilla/webly/tree/master/docs

For me this approach will not work in the long run.

I have hundreds of files that get created in the JavaScript build.

I made a little test to see if I can Script it with babashka

https://github.com/pink-gorilla/webly/blob/master/bb.edn

right. what you can do is make a gh-pages orphan branch

take a look at this: https://github.com/babashka/fs#codox

it does need to be under version control but it can be a separate branch so you don't pollute your main branch with this stuff.

But I need to run this in the CI pipeline .. which will work .. but If I dont check the output into the repo, then I need an api to send the files to GitHub

I do the same thing for scittle: https://github.com/babashka/scittle/blob/main/doc/dev.md

you do need to check the output in the repo, that is how github pages works I think

but who cares, if this is a separate branch

why do you have hundreds of files btw? aren't you using advanced compilation?

Yes

I am compiling clojure Notebooks

And I have 40 ui renderers

Each one goes into a separate Module

Because otherwise the bundle gets too big

After 2 years working on this Project I am finally headed towards something that I can release to the public

Ha ha ha

I see

I recommend the orphan branch approach

Thanks a lot

I will try that

I'm quite happy with this approach:

name: Run Script

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - master
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - master
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  build:
    name: Run script
    runs-on: [self-hosted, research]
    container: bitnami/git:2.34.0

    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/[email protected]

      - name: install babashka
        run: |
          curl -s  -o install.sh
          bash install.sh --version 0.6.5

      - name: Generate page(s)
        run: bb your-html-creating-babashka-script-here.clj

      - name: Install rsync # needed for the publish action 
        run: |
          apt-get update
          apt-get install -y rsync

      - name: Publish
        uses: JamesIves/[email protected]
        with:
          branch: gh-pages
          folder: publish
          git-config-name: Github Actions
          git-config-email: 

no git magic and only generated stuff is on the gh-pages branch

(so locally I just check my publish folder in the main branch and never bother to look at the gh-pages branch; that is taken care of by the action)

elegant approach!

@U088NU894 you run github actions self-hosted?

yes .. for work we have self hosted runners because of ip, security, partial access to our VPN etc

cool

Happy to see the pod model used in this way! Awesome project :)
