Automatically deploy changes

Your site can be built by sending a POST request to:

https://builder.statichost.eu/YOUR_SITE_NAME

In order to build your site automatically, you can register this URL as a webhook receiver, and your site will be built and deployed whenever the webhook is triggered. The webhook should be sent whenever your site (e.g. content) changes.

For example this site is built automatically by a webhook added to its GitHub repository (using the instructions below). Whenever new commits to the main branch are pushed, the webhook is sent and site is built and deployed. Similarly, if your site uses a (non-git) CMS, a webhook can most likely be added whenever changes occur, triggering a build.

Examples of how to do this for various providers are listed below.
