Serving

Serving locally

While you’re creating content for your library, you’ll probably want to see what the finished product looks like. Fortunately, Infusion is easy to serve locally using the serve command:

npm run serve

This will serve your working library from localhost:1313 (the exact URL will be determined by what’s in your baseURL and will be revealed to you by your terminal). Whenever you make changes to your library’s files, the site will automatically rebuild. No need to refresh the web page!

Publishing on Github Pages

Infusion creates a /docs folder containing the latest version of your library whenever you run npm run build or do a git commit. This folder can be made the source for your Github Pages site by selecting it under Settings → Github Pages → Source in the web interface.

Then, whenever you push to master, you will also be updating the site found at your Github Pages URL, in the format [your user name].github.io/[your library repo name]. You’ll also need to add this URL to your config.toml file. See {{ pattern “Library setup” }} for more information.
