I ran in to a little issue with my publish.sh
script that I use to automatically publish my site with Hugo. I wipe out the public
folder and then rebuild the site with Hugo. After that is done, the public
folder is synced to the web host, using the --delete
option. The problem arises if Hugo encounters an error. The site isn’t rebuilt but the now empty public
folder is synced, wiping out the website.
The script now checks Hugo’s exit code, and will only sync if the code is 0
. I hope that helps someone!
#!/bin/bash
if ! command -v /snap/bin/hugo &> /dev/null
then
echo "Hugo not found. Install with:"
echo "sudo snap install hugo"
exit
fi
cd /home/goz/Web/gozgeek.com/
echo "Building at `date`"
echo "Clear out public.."
[[-d "public"]] || mkdir "public"
rm -r public/*
echo "Building site..."
HUGO_ENV=production /snap/bin/hugo
# If something goes wrong building the site, exit the script!
if [! $? -eq 0]; then
echo "Something is wrong..."
exit
fi
echo "Set up some RSS stuff..."
mkdir public/feed
mkdir public/feed/podcast
cp public/posts/index.xml public/feed/
cp public/tags/podcast/index.xml public/feed/podcast/
echo "Adding build date..."
date > public/built.txt
hostname >> public/built.txt
echo "Uploading site..."
rsync -e ssh -avp --progress --delete public/ gozgeek:gozgeek.com/
