Automatic game build & deploy

In case this approach might be useful to someone else.

I am about to collaborate with someone on a Rez game and we’re going to use a Github repo to work together. I figured I would see if I get auto-build & deploy working. Here is a Github CI workflow for that

deploy.yml (1.9 KB)

Whenever there is a push to the branch main a workflow is triggered that:

  • downloads the latest binary version of Rez for Linux
  • compiles the game sources
  • copies the contents of the game dist folder (including assets) to Github pages

The result is the game page here (which is a “new project” page and not necessarily very interesting but it confirms that an actual HTML/JS project gets deployed successfully).

I think this approach would probably work for other systems.
