v1.0.0-rc.1

This release adds support for Angular v11. 🎉

---

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE (v1)

Starting with version 1 the option --configuration was renamed to --build-target.

BEFORE (does not work):

ng deploy --configuration=test

NOW:

ng deploy --build-target=test

If you use the old syntax, you will probably receive the following error:

An unhandled exception occurred: Configuration 'test' is not set in the workspace.

Features

• support for Angular 11, many thanks goes to @beeman 🐝, see PR #118 and PR #120, fixes #119

Fixes

• fix(engine): remove extraneous slash from extended commit message for GitHub Actions, see PR #91 by @EdricChan03
• fix(tooling): fix jest types (24d9922), as explained in angular-schule/ngx-deploy-starter#7 (comment) by @dianjuar
• fix(tooling): improve prettier formatter (891ee8c), as reported in angular-schule/ngx-deploy-starter#10

v0.6.2

With this release, GitHub Actions becomes a first citizen alongside Travis CI and CircleCi.

Everything GitHub: Continuous Integration, Deployment and Hosting for your Angular App

In this article we show several tools from the GitHub universe to launch a website with Angular. We will establish a professional pipeline, including version management, continuous deployment and web hosting. Best of all, for public repositories, this will not cost you a single cent! Read more...

tl;dr

The token GITHUB_TOKEN is now supported. When using any token (GH_TOKEN / PERSONAL_TOKEN / GITHUB_TOKEN), it is no longer necessary to specify the --repo parameter if the directory already has a remote repository. This is the case for GitHub actions. Please note that for GitHub actions git config user.name and git config user.email are not set. You still have to provide them.

ℹ️ Note

The GITHUB_TOKEN (installation access token) will only trigger a release of a new website if the action runs in a private repository. In a public repo, a commit is generated, but the site does not change. See this GitHub Community post for more info. If your repo is public, you must still use the GH_TOKEN (personal access token).

Special thanks goes out to @shhdharmen and @EdricChan03 who pushed this release forward! 👍

Example

A valid main.yml for GitHub Actions in a private repository could look like this:

name: Deploy to GitHub Pages via angular-cli-ghpages

on: [push]

jobs:
  build-and-deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - name: Checkout
      uses: actions/checkout@v2

    - name: Use Node.js 10.x
      uses: actions/setup-node@v1
      with:
        node-version: 10.x

    - name: Prepare and deploy
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      run: |
        npm install
        npm run ng -- deploy --base-href=/the-repositoryname/ --name="Displayed Username" [email protected] --no-silent

v0.6.1

This release has mainly improvements in error handling. It is now again possible to receive detailed logging messages using the --no-silent option. Furthermore, the deployment is aborted if the previous build fails (thanks to @masaxsuzu).

Fixes

v0.6.0

First stable release after v0.5.3. Please update.
This is a big rewrite that will allow invoking angular-cli-ghpages via ng deploy.

Example:

ng new your-angular-project --defaults
ng add angular-cli-ghpages
ng deploy --repo=https://github.com/angular-schule/angular-cli-ghpages-testdrive.git

Features

• Implements an Angular CLI builder (PR #60, closes #59) -- many thanks to @mgechev
• Updated documentation about configuration via angular.json (PR #68, closes #67) -- many thanks to @dianjuar
• Implements the conventions from ngx-deploy-starter RFC #1

Furthermore I thank @SoAsEr, @TrevorKarjanis and @fmalcher for their help.

0.6.0-rc.2

• no code changes

fixes #62
Many thanks to @TrevorKarjanis.

Many thanks to @SoAsEr.

0.6.0-rc.0

This is a big rewrite that will allow invoking angular-cli-ghpages via ng deploy.
Deployments via Angular CLI will be available in @angular@next (v8.3.0-next.0 or greater)

Example:

ng new your-angular-project --defaults
ng add angular-cli-ghpages@next
ng deploy --repo=https://github.com/angular-schule/angular-cli-ghpages-testdrive.git

Please note: In the past this project was a standalone program (e.g npx angular-cli-ghpages). This is still possible! See the documentation at README_standalone.

See PR #60. This fixes #59
Many thanks to @mgechev.
