I am looking into Ecstatic to generate a static web site from Pillar files hosted on GitHub Pages.
This is rather easy as Ecstatic was built just for that, so there is no need to change Pillar for it.
this https://guillep.github.io/ecstatic/install.html and this https://gist.github.com/cobyism/4730490
should be all you need to get it up & running on GH pages.
I've successfully used "git subtree push", but I find it messes with the history graph. The architecture I'm trying is git top-level folder containing: * generated html files; * _srcsite folder containing pillar files * _ecstatic folder containing all scripts and executables that requires only... $ git checkout gh-pages # Modify pillar files in folder _srcsite $ _ecstatic/generate $ git add -A $ git commit $ git push I temporarily broke the side menu, but I updated Guille's documentation so you can see where I'm headed... http://bencoman.github.io/ecstatic/install.html cheers -ben
