Building a Firebase/Hugo static website that updates when Github repo changes.
I am using the standard theme from the Quickstart guide: https://gohugo.io/getting-started/quick-start/
The webpage runs fine locally.
hugo server -D
The webpage runs fine when I deploy build to Firebase.
firebase deploy --only hosting
The webpage does not run fine when I trigger the build from Github repo, despite Google Cloud Build saying it successfully.
- Commit and push changes to Github repo
- Triggers a Google Cloud Build based on the cloudbuild.yaml in Github
- Both build steps (Hugo and Firebase) are successful
The result of visiting the URL is the following message:
Page Not Found
This file does not exist and there was no index.html found in the current directory or 404.html in the root directory.
Why am I seeing this?
You may have deployed the wrong directory for your application. Check your firebase.json and make sure the public directory is pointing to a directory that contains an index.html file.
You can also add a 404.html in the root of your site to replace this page with a custom error page.
I've tried changing the "baseURL" in config.toml to the custom domain, the firebase domain, and the Github repo URL. Nothing.
4/16 Update: It works if I do not include public folder in the .gitignore
