## Forgejo Actions

This project's static Pages are built by Forgejo Actions, following the steps
defined in [`.forgejo/workflows/pages.yaml`](.forgejo/workflows/pages.yaml).
That builds this website using ikiwiki, and pushes the build artifacts to the
`public` branch.

The `public` branch has its own workflow following steps defined in
[`forgejo/workflows/push.yaml`](https://ayakael.net/forge/ayakael.net/src/branch/public/.forgejo/workflows/push.yaml)
that uploads the artifacts to a remote HTTP server for deployment in
production. This workflow is automatically updated from `main` so that `public`
should never be manually modified.

The deployment is done by a simple remote git push via SSH to a non-bare repo
where `git config receive.denyCurrentBranch` is set as `updateInstead`. This
allows this repo to be checked out as `public`, allowing it to be a root for
your favorite HTTP server.

The following secrets are expected to be set for operation:
* PAGES_PRIVKEY: SSH private key that is used to push to the HTTP server's git
repo
* PAGES_TOKEN: Forgejo application token used to push to `public` branch.

The following variables are expected to be set for operation:
* PAGES_TARGET: SSH target for HTTP server's git repo, following this format:
user@example.net:/path/to/http/repo
