Upload and host static websites in Google Storage Buckets.
yarn global add @cannery/hoist
# or
npm install -g @cannery/hoistHoist understands, and automatically pre-processes for production, the following file types out of the box:
- HTML: URLs referenced replaced with hashed CDN names and minified for production
- CSS: File URLs replaced with hashed CDN names, autoprefixer applied with default settings, minified for production, and file name is hashed for CDN cache busting.
- JavaScript: Minified for production and file name is hashed for CDN cache busting.
- JPEG, PNG, GIF: Compressed, and file names are hashed for CDN cache busting.
- SVG, Ico, BMP, WebP: File names are hashed for CDN cache busting
All other files discovered are uploaded as-is to the hosting provider. All files are gzipped as they are uploaded and appropriate cache-key headers are set.
Hoist comes with just two commands:
$ hoist up [root] [subdirectory] [bucket_name]
$ hoist down
$ hoist serve directory [port]hoist up will make your site public to the world. If you pass a directory root as the second CLI argument it will upload that directory to your production site. You can optionally pass a subdirectory to only upload that subdirectory to remote, and a bucket name other than the one specified in your gcloud.json auth file (see below) to select an alternate GCS bucket to upload to.
hoist down will make your site private, nobody will be able to see files in the Google Storage Bucket.
hoist serve will serve your site locally over SSL for you to preview. If you pass a preferred port Hoist will use the provided port if available.
When you run Hoist from the CLI, it will crawl up directories until it finds a gcloud.json file with the Service Account Key and attempt to use it for authentication.
Hoist needs a Service Account and a Service Account Key with Storage Bucket management permissions to operate.
You may optionally include a cloudflare_token to automatically clear your CDN cache on upload. This token must be granted Zone.Zone read access and Zone.Cache Purge permissions for relevant DNS Zones.
You may optionally include a test_domain to configure the local domain that hoist serve uses. By default it will make the site available at https://hoist.test.
To configure the bucket that the site will upload to by default, add a single bucket field to this gcloud.json file with the target bucket name.
Once configured, your gcloud.json file should look something like this:
{
"type": "service_account",
"project_id": "projectid",
"bucket": "bucketname.com",
"test_domain": "appname.test",
"cloudflare_token": "01234567890123456789",
"private_key_id": "01234567890123456789",
"private_key": "-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----\n...\n-----END PRIVATE KEY-----\n",
