Vacation

Vacation lets you host Jekyll sites on S3. It is a gem. You add it via gem install vacation.

Then you take a vacation.

Creating a Jekyll site

Make site.

Identify your AWS access credentials

These should look something like the ones you get from Amazon. Not Rackspace.

Full ~/.fog support will land in a bit.

Then identify the name of the bucket you want to hork things into.

Backups

Vacation destructively overwrites the contents of the target bucket for now. Previous content is (optionally, if you use the vacation executable) backed up to a secondary bucket.

If you deploy to bucket_name bucket is called bucket_name-vacation-backup.

Deploying

Vacation gets invoked via a command line executable script, also called vacation!

Vacation is a way of deploying Jekyll sites to S3.
