Jekyll is a simple, blog-aware, static site generator for personal, project, or organization sites.

​
Deploy with Nixpacks

Nixpacks needs a few prerequisites in your source code to deploy your Jekyll application. More info here.

​
Deploy with Dockerfile

If you want simplicity, you can use a Dockerfile to deploy your Jekyll application.

​
Prerequisites

  1. Set Ports Exposes field to 80.
  2. Create a Dockerfile in the root of your project with the following content:
FROM ruby:3.1.1 AS builder
RUN apt-get update -qq && apt-get install -y build-essential nodejs
WORKDIR /srv/jekyll
COPY Gemfile Gemfile.lock ./
RUN bundle install
COPY . .
RUN chown 1000:1000 -R /srv/jekyll
RUN bundle exec jekyll build -d /srv/jekyll/_site

FROM nginx:alpine
COPY --from=builder /srv/jekyll/_site /usr/share/nginx/html
EXPOSE 80
CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
  1. Make sure you have a Gemfile and Gemfile.lock in the root of your project.
  2. Set the buildpack to Dockerfile.
