This repository is meant for Yunpeng's personal blog website. It is proudly powered by Hexo.js. In a previous blog, I shared the reasons why I chose to blog with Hexo.js.
- Production Site: https://yunpengn.github.io/blog/
- Staging Site: https://yunpengn-blog.netlify.app/
- Make sure you have installed the latest version of Node.js, Npm and Git on your development machine. Npm should come with Node.js.
- You chould check them by
git --version,node -vandnpm -v.

We use the Git deployer plugin for Hexo to deploy the site to the gh-pages branch, which is then picked up by GitHub Pages automatically.
- You should have followed the section above to set up the local development environment.
- Check the settings in
_config.ymlis correct (see Hexo's documentation for more details):
deploy:
type: git
repo: <The URL to your Git repository>
branch: <The branch for deployment>
message: <The commit message>- Deploy the website by running
npm run deploy. Prior to doing this, check that you have access to the Git repository.
We are also using Netlify as a CI/CD service to host the staging site. The relevant configuration for Netlify can be found in the file netlify.toml. The staging pipeline would run whenever you push the changes to this GitHub repository and there is no manual step involved.
You should take special note that the Hexo.js configuration file for the staging environment is different. This is due to the differences in base URL and root path between the two environments. When running the Hexo commannds, make sure you suffix them with --config _config_netlify.yml.
Fetched in submodule path 'themes/next', but it did not contain
XXXX. Direct fetching of that commit failed.
This is usually because the master head of the theme repository has been changed recently. Solve this by cd themes/next && git checkout master && git pull.
