Shart

Shart is a DRY approach to deploying websites generated by Middleman, Jekyll, or other static websites to cloud service providers that support website hosting, like Amazon S3.

Install shart from RubyGems:

$ gem install shart

Create a Shartfile in the root of your project that looks like:

# A Middleman Shartfile.
source './build'
target 'your-aws-bucket-name', {
  :provider               =>  'AWS',
  :aws_secret_access_key  =>  'your AWS credentials',
  :aws_access_key_id      =>  'your AWS credentials'
}

When you're ready to publish your website, run:

$ shart

Don't forget to run middleman build before you shart if you're using Middleman.

After you successfully shart, be sure to read the blog post about hosting a website on S3 if you haven't already configured your S3 bucket to do so.

Shart has only been tested with Amazon S3 buckets.

In theory, you can shart into any storage provider that Fog supports.
