# Running `mdbook` in Continuous Integration
While the following examples use Travis CI, their principles should
straightforwardly transfer to other continuous integration providers as well.
## Ensuring Your Book Builds and Tests Pass
Here is a sample Travis CI `.travis.yml` configuration that ensures `mdbook
build` and `mdbook test` run successfully. The key to fast CI turnaround times
is caching `mdbook` installs, so that you aren't compiling `mdbook` on every CI
run.
```yaml
language: rust
sudo: false
cache:
- cargo
rust:
- stable
before_script:
- (test -x $HOME/.cargo/bin/cargo-install-update || cargo install cargo-update)
- (test -x $HOME/.cargo/bin/mdbook || cargo install --vers "^0.3" mdbook)
- cargo install-update -a
script:
- mdbook build path/to/mybook && mdbook test path/to/mybook
```
## Deploying Your Book to GitHub Pages
Following these instructions will result in your book being published to GitHub
pages after a successful CI run on your repository's `master` branch.
First, create a new GitHub "Personal Access Token" with the "public_repo"
permissions (or "repo" for private repositories). Go to your repository's Travis
CI settings page and add an environment variable named `GITHUB_TOKEN` that is
marked secure and *not* shown in the logs.
Then, append this snippet to your `.travis.yml` and update the path to the
`book` directory:
```yaml
deploy:
provider: pages
skip-cleanup: true
github-token: $GITHUB_TOKEN
local-dir: path/to/mybook/book
keep-history: false
on:
branch: master
```
That's it!
### Deploying to GitHub Pages manually
If your CI doesn't support GitHub pages, or you're deploying somewhere else
with integrations such as Github Pages:
*note: you may want to use different tmp dirs*:
```console
$> git worktree add /tmp/book gh-pages
$> mdbook build
$> rm -rf /tmp/book/* # this won't delete the .git directory
$> cp -rp book/* /tmp/book/
$> cd /tmp/book
$> git add -A
$> git commit 'new book message'
$> git push origin gh-pages
$> cd -
```
Or put this into a Makefile rule:
```makefile
.PHONY: deploy
deploy: book
@echo "====> deploying to github"
git worktree add /tmp/book gh-pages
rm -rf /tmp/book/*
cp -rp book/* /tmp/book/
cd /tmp/book && \
git add -A && \
git commit -m "deployed on $(shell date) by ${USER}" && \
git push origin gh-pages
```
