Boilerplate for Hugo Deployment

This repo contains the basic layout for the deployment of a hugo website with traefik and docker. The site folder contains your hugo website and the necessary files. The main idea for this repository is based on the docker image of jojomi.

Modifications to the setup of jojomi are:

• replacing nginx with the speed version pagespeed/nginx-pagespeed
• replacing the target directory from /var/www to /usr/share/nginx/html:ro

Assumptions:

• You have installed docker-compose, you can install it via setup
• Traefik is already running in a different process/container
• you defined an external network for all you traefik related containers, if you need to create one just run docker create yournetwork
• in the config.toml no base url is defined, if you define it there you have to comment out the line in the docker-compose file

Deployment

1. Put you hugo website into the site folder
2. Create a corresponding folder for the deploy, in the docker-compose file you replace the folder location /home/username/folder_for_deployment
3. Set you network
4. Define the Host rule
5. run docker-compose up -d
6. You should now your hugo website 😊
