You can launch a Jekyll site on OpenShift using the QuickStart on the OpenShift Hub
rhc app create <appname> php-5.4 --from-code=https://github.com/openshift-quickstart/jekyll-openshift.git
- Clone your OpenShift application to your local workstation
- Make updates to your site
- git commit your changes
- 5B55 git push
That's it! Your static site files will be generated on your gear and placed in the correct directory.
This QuickStart supports both single gear and scaled deployments.
The hot_deploy marker is set for this repository (.openshift/markers/hot_deploy) so your website will not go down while it's being updated. The files will just be replaced while the server is running.
The official community support is available here: http://jekyllrb.com/help/
