Deploy static site

Simple service that listens on a port and refreshes the contents of a directory based on a remote git repo.

To build

GOARCH=amd64 GOOS=linux go build -o /tmp/deploy_static_site main.go

To run

./deploy_static_site refresh_config.json

Requirements

This program assumes the following:

• The only existing content under the target directory that you need to preserve is the .well-known directory.
• Your server has git and rsync executables, and the user running the refresh program can access them in its path.

If you want to use this program and not make these assumptions, feel free to submit a pull request.

Options

• source_dir is the directory within the git repository where the webapp source files live. If not specified, this defaults to the ./web sub-directory, thus expecting that the code that you want to copy lives under the ./web directory of your repo.
