How to deploy a vue app to GitHub pages

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about deploying a vue.js app to GitHub pages.

We are deploying our vue app in four steps.

Step 1

Push your vue.js app to a GitHub repository.

Step 2

Create a new file called vue.config.js in your root app folder.

Now add a below code to vue.config.js file by replacing with your own publicPath.

module.exports = {    publicPath: '/vue-app-deploy-example/'}

Note: publicPath is the GitHub repository name you created at the time of pushing your app to GitHub.

Step 3

Now we are creating a deploy script file which helps us to deploy our app to GitHub pages.

create a new file called deploy.sh in your root app folder and add the below code by replacing your GitHub username and repository name.

#!/usr/bin/env sh# abort on errorsset -e# buildnpm run build# navigate into the build output directorycd distgit initgit add -Agit commit -m 'deploy'git push -f [email protected]:<USERNAME>/<REPO>.git master:gh-pagescd -

Step 4: Running deploy script

Open your terminal and run below command to successfully deploy your app to GitHub pages

bash deploy.sh

Once you successfully completed all above steps now open your vue app GitHub repo and click on settings tab then scroll down to GitHub pages to see your live app URL.
