How to integrate GitHub with WeWeb?

Step 1: Create a GitHub Repository

  1. Head over to your GitHub account.
  2. Hit the “New” button to start a fresh repository.
  3. Give it a name, maybe a description if you feel like it, and decide if it’s public or private.
  4. Click “Create repository” to wrap it up.

Step 2: Clone the Repository

  1. Fire up your terminal or command prompt.
  2. Type git clone https://github.com/your-username/your-repository-name.git to pull the repository to your local machine.

Step 3: Set Up WeWeb

  1. If you don’t have a WeWeb account yet, go ahead and create one.
  2. Log in to your WeWeb dashboard.
  3. Click on “New Project” to kick off a new WeWeb project.
  4. Just follow the on-screen instructions to get your project set up.

Step 4: Connect GitHub to WeWeb

  1. In your WeWeb dashboard, head to the project settings.
  2. Go to the "Integrations" tab.
  3. Pick "GitHub" from the list of integrations.
  4. You’ll need to authorize WeWeb to access your GitHub account. Click “Authorize” to move forward.
  5. Choose the repository you want to link from the list of available repositories.

Step 5: Deploy WeWeb Changes to GitHub

  1. In WeWeb, go to the "Deploy" section of your project.
  2. Set up the deployment settings to specify the branch in your GitHub repository where changes should go.
  3. Click “Deploy” to push your WeWeb project files to the chosen branch in your GitHub repository.

Step 6: Automated Deployment (Optional)

  1. Set up GitHub Actions or another CI/CD pipeline to automatically deploy changes from the specified branch.
  2. Create a .github/workflows directory in your GitHub repository.
  3. Add a deploy.yml file with the pipeline configuration, making sure it triggers on commits to the specified branch.
name: Deploy

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Deploy to WeWeb
        run: |
          # Your deployment script here
  1. Commit and push the .github directory to your repository.

This sets up a smooth integration between GitHub and WeWeb, ensuring that changes in WeWeb get automatically deployed to your GitHub repository.

Step 7: Verify the Integration

  1. Go to your GitHub repository and check if the latest changes from WeWeb are there.
  2. Verify that your GitHub Actions (if set up) have successfully run and deployed any changes.
  3. Make sure everything is working by making a small change in WeWeb, deploy, and confirm it shows up in GitHub.

By following these steps, GitHub and WeWeb will be successfully integrated, enabling seamless project management and deployment.
