from ngx-starter-kit.

to deploy to gp-pages:

1. If you forked/cloned this repo as DirectoryBuilder/ngx-starter-kit-test on your GitHub account, you might have to change base-href as /ngx-starter-kit-test/ in package.json

   Example :

    "build:mock": "ng build -c=mock --base-href /ngx-starter-kit-test/",

2. make sure you can do git pull/push from your project root with your git account.
   git remote -v should show something like this:

   origin  https://github.com/xmlking/ngx-starter-kit.git (fetch)
   origin  https://github.com/xmlking/ngx-starter-kit.git (push)
   

3. Setup your repo's GitHub Pages settings to use gh-pages branch

Is this solved already?

This is not an issue of this project. He is asking about how to setup your github to host static websites via gh-pages.

How would I run without the silent option to view details on my error?

By forking the original repo, I now have a gh-pages branch, so I can view my fork of the demo site on GitHub here:

https://directorybuilder.github.io/ngx-starter-kit

However, I'm still not able to deploy the "dist" folder content to the gh-pages branch to view changes.

When I use the command line npm run deploy:mock to deploy changes to gh-pages branch, I'm still getting the error I initially posted:

Error: Unspecified error (run without silent option for detail)

1.) I kept the name ngx-starter-kit when forking the repo and when cloning my fork to my local machine, so no need to modify the "build:mock" value.

2.) git remote -v returns:
origin https://github.com/DirectoryBuilder/ngx-starter-kit.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/DirectoryBuilder/ngx-starter-kit.git (push)
upstream https://github.com/xmlking/ngx-starter-kit.git (fetch)
upstream https://github.com/xmlking/ngx-starter-kit.git (push)

What steps can I take to deploy the 'dist' folder content to gh-pages branch?
(I'm avoiding removing /dist from .gitignore so it's not deployed to the master branch.)

Do I need to install the following or something similar?

from ngx-starter-kit.

1. you have angular-cli-ghpages in devDependencies in package.json so, no need to install it globally. PS: any local NPM packages's executables can be run, by prefixing npx which is part of Node v10 and above. i.e., npx ngh --version
2. My npm run deploy:mock is basically two commands (you can see in package.json)
   1. npm run build:mock
   2. npx ngh --dir dist/apps/webapp

you can try to run them separately to isolate the issue .
after build, you can try following command to debug what is causing your issue.
npx ngh --no-silent --dir dist/apps/webapp
I am not doing any custom things with angular-cli-ghpages , if you cannot solve this error, I would advise to open ticket in angular-cli-ghpages issues.

Option 2:

If gh-pages approach doesn't work for you, you build and rename dist folder to docs,
then check-in docs , then change
Source --> master branch /docs folder settings on GitHub to publish form docs folder.

Thanks! I'd suggest including --no-silent in the package.json command for automatic error viewing.
The problem was outdated Github credentials stored in the keychain app on my local machine.

To update on Mac: In Finder, search for the Keychain Access app. In Keychain Access, search for github.com and edit or delete.

To update on Windows: Go to: Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Manage your credentials -> Windows Credentials. Under Generic Credentials find Github and edit or "Remove".
