Hi all,
As you all have noticed, I've been working to clean up
common-lisp.net and simplifying the administration process.
One of the things we have done is that we implemented a deployment pipeline for the
common-lisp.net main site using GitLab. It's been a great joy to work with it so far and made deployment of new site content easier than ever before.
My proposal is to set up a GitLab CI based deployment pipeline for
all common-lisp.net projects. Meaning that I'm proposing to import the current project pages (/project/*/public_html) into GitLab repositories (<project-name>-site) with a gitlab-ci file which causes the content to be published.
The approach above will mean simple import of the existing static content. However, after import, the static output can be replaced by different input and a static content generator, just like we did with the
common-lisp.net site.
Eager to hear your thoughts,
Erik.
