This repo comes with a GitHub action that will deploy our site to staging when there is a commit to the main branch and production when you tag a release.

For this to work you must create a repo secret named BEGIN_TOKEN. Once you successfully login to Begin using the CLI command begin login you can retrieve the value for BEGIN_TOKEN in the file ~/.begin/config.json. Use the value of access_token in this file as the value for BEGIN_TOKEN.

Additionally to ensure you /rss feed points to the correct environment you will need to create two additional repo secrets.

• BEGIN_URL_STAGING: set to the url you received when creating the staging environment
• BEGIN_URL_PRODUCTION: set to the url you received when creating the production environment
