Analysis#

1. TZ: Europe/Paris#

env:
  TZ: Europe/Paris

Forces the runner timezone to Europe/Paris. Dates rendered by VitePress ("Last update: 05/18/2026 11h42") are in Paris time, not UTC. Leaving it in UTC would cause mysterious date bugs.

2. fetch-depth: 0#

- uses: actions/checkout@v6
  with:
    fetch-depth: 0

fetch-depth: 0 = full git clone (vs depth 1 by default).

VitePress (via the @sugarat/theme) reads the Git log to compute each page’s “Last update” date. Without full history: VitePress only sees the last commit, every page would have the same date.

3. pnpm/action-setup SHA-pinned#

- uses: pnpm/action-setup@fcf821c621167805dd63a29662bd7cb5676c81a8

Version pinning by SHA is used everywhere for non-official actions (not prefixed with actions/) to mitigate Supply Chain Attack risks.

4. --frozen-lockfile#

See 05-igoristan-workflows.md

5. concurrency: pages, cancel-in-progress: false#

Prevents simultaneous deploys to GitHub Pages (race condition).

Build#

pnpm build
# = vitepress build docs

VitePress produces:

  • Static HTML per route (EN + FR + RU).
  • JS/CSS bundle.
  • pagefind/ search index.
  • llms.txt + llms-full.txt (via the in-house plugin).
  • PDFs served from public/.

Output: docs/.vitepress/dist/.

Deployment#

- uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v4
  with:
    path: docs/.vitepress/dist
- id: deployment
  uses: actions/deploy-pages@v5

Final URL#

https://mojo-molotov.github.io/ocarina-holy-book/

/ocarina-holy-book prefix configured in config.mts#base:

const base =
  process.env.GITHUB_ACTIONS === "true" ? "/ocarina-holy-book/" : "/";

PR trigger#

  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:
    branches: [main]
  workflow_dispatch:

pull_request is included. Every PR builds the site to verify nothing is broken, but doesn’t deploy.

No automated dynamic tests#

The Holy Book has no automated dynamic tests. Tested manually.
