Background Radiation

Background Radiation, or BakRad, or br is a bespoke build system for static sites. I use it to automate deployment of the various static sites I run with Caddy.

Usage

Run the container, ensuring you have mounted a config file to /etc/bakrad/config. The config file is a plaintext, newline delimited list of HTTPS links to Git repositories containing your site.

BakRad functions using Git tags, it will only update a site when it detects a change in tag since the last run (tags are cached at /var/bakrad/tags).

If the script detects a ts/ or scss/ directory is present within the Git repository, it will compile files using the respective compiler.

Ensure the root folder for your production sites is mounted at /srv/www/, which is where BakRad will place updated sites.

docker run \
    --rm \
    --tty \ # Allocate pseudo-tty for log colors
    -v /etc/opt/slapshit/bakrad:/etc/bakrad \
    -v /srv/www:/srv/www/ \
    -v /var/opt/slapshit/bakrad:/var/cache/bakrad \
    bakrad

$ cat /etc/opt/slapshit/bakrad/config
