CI: fix docs build and deploy workflow
Did I ever complain about the GitHub Actions documentation being an horrible mess?
No, I haven't tested this locally and I run out of time for the moment. I was hoping that someone with more experience with GitHub Actions could comment on the validity of what I've done here. I'll test this in my fork. Anyhow, for some reason the GitHub Actions runners haven't pick up this PR...
Ah okay. Let me compare with what works in another project. I have a fair amount of experience with GHA, but this kind of thing is mostly trial-and-error rather than understand-then-do unfortunately.
The updated docs are up on https://mesonbuild.com/meson-python/, so this isn't a burning issue I think.
Hi, I just looked at the changes made here, and I think they should work. 👍 Just to note that github.ref on tags is heads/refs/<name of the tag> and not just <name of the tag>, so that could be the only possible place where this can break.
The updated docs are up
I triggered the workflow manually to publish them. I was not sure whether the issue was with the trigger or with the job definition, so doing that ruled out the latter.
I've testes this and it works as expected. It needs an adjustment to the environment protection rules in the project settings to be able to deploy the documentation from a tag. I've already done this.
