rse.sheffield.ac.uk

GH pages repositories can only serve content to a single subdomain.

This repository enables the RSE website RSE-Sheffield/RSE-Sheffield.github.io to be served at both rse.shef.ac.uk and rse.sheffield.ac.uk.

The CI workflow .github/workflows/mirror.yaml clones RSE-Sheffield/RSE-Sheffield.github.io, installs dependencies, builds the RSE-Sheffield/RSE-Sheffield.github.io jekkyll website and deploys it to github pages, in this case pointed at rse.sheffield.ac.uk, while the website repository deploys to rse.shef.ac.uk.

Deployment is triggered by a workflow_dispatch event from the publish.yaml workflow in RSE-Sheffield/RSE-Sheffield.github.io, when a valid PAT exists. It can also be triggered by pushes to master on this repository, or by an authorised user manually triggering the workflow via a workflow_dispatch event.
