Github Publishing Actions

The last test, which I have to perform, so that I pronounce this functionality live, is to see how it will all work, when I post by using actions from my private repo at github.dev.

One of the primary reasons why I started this whole project was to get out of Wordpress’ heavy publishing, and be flexible in whatever I would like to achieve. So far, I achieved to do the following locally:

1. Create a new post using Markdown, attach title image and/or other images at the bottom. Both these are optional, of course!
2. Build and deploy (locally) that to my CapRover’ Daily
3. Push that post as well to my page on Facebook. It even succeeded to create a (somehow) noticeable title!
4. Remove any links from the post’s body to prevent the good, ol’ Facebook from decreasing the reach of my posts. Not that I strive for some kind of a expect huge reach, but it was interesting exercise anyway.

It took quite a few hickups, but thankfully to Claude Code, I think I’m finally ready locally. Now everything is uploaded within a Github action, and this post is supposed to test that. Of course, any kind of bugs are expected, but the hope is that since it works locally, it’ll work within an Action as well.

Let’s see!
