Automatically deploy your Pelican website using GitLab

This article describes step by step how to set up jobs with GitLab‘s continuous integration (CI) tools for building and deploying a static website generated with Pelican. The source of the website needs to be hosted (publicly or privately) on GitLab. As an example, this page is the result of the current master. For each change on a remote branch on GitLab, the website gets build as a test. If there is a change on the branch “master”, an additional job deploys the website to an external web server using the file transfer protocol (FTP).
