Run your Ghost blog in a Docker container and publish it with Buster to static GitHub pages.

docker-compose up -d ghost open http://localhost:2368/ghost

or

./edit.sh

You can create and publish new content, they are still only locally available.

View the local Ghost site in your Browser

open http://localhost:2368

This will run buster in a container and update the files in the static folder. The data still remains locally on your disk.

docker-compose run buster

If you want to preview the generated static pages, use another container.

docker-compose up -d preview open http://localhost:2369

or

./preview.sh

To deploy the static files the shell script deploy.sh is used that checks in all local changes in the static folder and pushes it as new Git commit to your GitHub pages repo.

./deploy.sh

Some notes for me so I can look up what I have done "years" ago.

Updated Casper theme to 1.3.5 from https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper

cd content/themes rm -rf casper git clone https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper mv Casper casper cd ../..

Followed http://academy.ghost.org/adding-disqus-to-your-ghost-blog/ to add Disqus to post.hbs and then copied it into the themes folder.

cp post.hbs content/themes/casper/post.hbs

Put your GitHub pages into a folder static.

git clone git@github.com:StefanScherer/stefanscherer.github.io mv stefanscherer.github.io static
