# Deploy
Similar to [GitBook](https://www.gitbook.com), you can deploy files to GitHub Pages, GitLab Pages or VPS.
## GitHub Pages
There're three places to populate your docs for your Github repository:
- `docs/` folder
- master branch
- gh-pages branch
It is recommended that you save your files to the `./docs` subfolder of the `master` branch of your repository. Then select `master branch /docs folder` as your Github Pages source in your repositories' settings page.
![github pages](_images/deploy-github-pages.png)
!> You can also save files in the root directory and select `master branch`.
You'll need to place a `.nojekyll` file in the deploy location (such as `/docs` or the gh-pages branch)
## GitLab Pages
If you are deploying your master branch, include `.gitlab-ci.yml` with the following script:
?> The `.public` workaround is so `cp` doesn't also copy `public/` to itself in an infinite loop.
```YAML
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- mkdir .public
- cp -r * .public
- mv .public public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
only:
- master
```
!> You can replace script with `- cp -r docs/. public`, if `./docs` is your Docsify subfolder.
## Firebase Hosting
!> You'll need to install the Firebase CLI using `npm i -g firebase-tools` after signing into the [Firebase Console](https://console.firebase.google.com) using a Google Account.
Using Terminal determine and navigate to the directory for your Firebase Project - this could be `~/Projects/Docs` etc. From there, run `firebase init`, choosing `Hosting` from the menu (use **space** to select, **arrow keys** to change options and **enter** to confirm). Follow the setup instructions.
You should have your `firebase.json` file looking similar to this (I changed the deployment directory from `public` to `site`):
```json
{
"hosting": {
"public": "site",
"ignore": ["firebase.json", "**/.*", "**/node_modules/**"]
}
}
```
Once finished, build the starting template by running `docsify init ./site` (replacing site with the deployment directory you determined when running `firebase init` - public by default). Add/edit the documentation, then run `firebase deploy` from the base project directory.
## VPS
Try following nginx config.
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
server_name your.domain.com;
location / {
alias /path/to/dir/of/docs/;
index index.html;
}
}
```
## Netlify
1. Login to your [Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) account.
2. In the [dashboard](https://app.netlify.com/) page, click **New site from Git**.
3. Choose a repository where you store your docs, leave the **Build Command** area blank, fill in the Publish directory area with the directory of your `index.html`, for example it should be docs if you populated it at `docs/index.html`.
### HTML5 router
When using the HTML5 router, you need to set up redirect rules that redirect all requests to your `index.html`, it's pretty simple when you're using Netlify, create a file named `_redirects` in the docs directory, add this snippet to the file and you're all set:
```sh
/* /index.html 200
```
## ZEIT Now
1. Install [Now CLI](https://zeit.co/download), `npm i -g now`
2. Change directory to your docsify website, for example `cd docs`
3. Deploy with a single command, `now`
## AWS Amplify
1. Set the routerMode in the Docsify project `index.html` to *history* mode.
```html
<script>
window.$docsify = {
loadSidebar: true,
routerMode: 'history'
}
</script>
```
2. Login to your [AWS Console](https://aws.amazon.com).
3. Go to the [AWS Amplify Dashboard](https://aws.amazon.com/amplify).
4. Choose the **Deploy** route to setup your project.
5. When prompted, keep the build settings empty if you're serving your docs within the root directory. If you're serving your docs from a different directory, customise your amplify.yml
```yml
version: 0.1
frontend:
phases:
build:
commands:
- echo "Nothing to build"
artifacts:
baseDirectory: /docs
files:
- '**/*'
cache:
paths: []
```
6. Add the following Redirect rules in their displayed order. Note that the second record is a PNG image where you can change it with any image format you are using.
| Source address | Target address | Type |
|----------------|----------------|---------------|
| /<*>.md | /<*>.md | 200 (Rewrite) |
| /<*>.png | /<*>.png | 200 (Rewrite) |
| /<*> | /index.html | 200 (Rewrite) |
