Deploy a pkgdown site on Travis-CI to Github Pages

deploy_site_github() was designed to deploy your site from Travis CI, which we no longer recommend, so this function is deprecated. There are two replacements:

• usethis::use_pkgdown_github_pages() will setup a GitHub action to automatically build and deploy your package website to GitHub pages.

• deploy_to_branch() can be called locally to build and deploy your website to any desired branch.

deploy_site_github(
  pkg = ".",
  install = TRUE,
  tarball = Sys.getenv("PKG_TARBALL", ""),
  ssh_id = Sys.getenv("id_rsa", ""),
  commit_message = construct_commit_message(pkg),
  clean = FALSE,
  verbose = FALSE,
  host = "github.com",
  ...,
  repo_slug = Sys.getenv("TRAVIS_REPO_SLUG", "")
)

Arguments

pkg

Path to package.

install

Optionally, opt-out of automatic installation. This is necessary if the package you're documenting is a dependency of pkgdown

tarball

The location of the built package tarball. The default Travis configuration for R packages sets PKG_TARBALL to this path.

ssh_id

The private id to use, a base64 encoded content of the private pem file. This should not be your personal private key. Instead create a new keypair specifically for deploying the site. The easiest way is to use travis::use_travis_deploy().

commit_message

The commit message to be used for the commit.

clean

Clean all files from old site.

verbose

Print verbose output

host

The GitHub host url.

...

Additional arguments passed to build_site().

repo_slug

The user/repo slug for the repository.
