GitHub Pages Pelican Build Action

This action builds a Pelican project and deploys it to GitHub Pages.

Please ensure a requirements.txt is present for your site and installs pelican and other requirements needed to build your site.

A requirements.txt can be generated by running pip freeze > requirements.txt in the virtual environment your pelican site is developed in.

Environment variables

  • GH_PAGES_BRANCH (optional): override the default gh-pages deployment branch
  • PELICAN_CONFIG_FILE (optional): override the default pelicanconf.py config file
  • PELICAN_CONTENT_FOLDER (optional): override the default content content folder
  • PELICAN_THEME_FOLDER (optional): setup the theme folder with package.json file, it is required if you need install node modules.
  • GITHUB_TOKEN: (required) should be ${{secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN}}, see the workflow demo in the demo repository for an example of this. This secret is fulfilled by GitHub.

Extracted from https://github.com/desertpy/desertpy-pelican.

It is not used there anymore though. For most sites though, this should suffice.
