One-Command Deployment

Hexo provides a fast and easy deployment strategy. You only need one single command to deploy your site to your server.

1
$ hexo deploy

Install the necessary plugin(s) that is compatible with the deployment method provided by your server/repository.

Deployment is usually configured through _config.yml. A valid configuration must have the type field. For example:

1
2
deploy:
  type: git

You can use multiple deployers. Hexo will execute each deployer in order.

  - type: git

  - type: heroku
