Set up website hosting

[ahmetb]

To run a website at krew.sigs.k8s.io we need some process set up. Looking for volunteers to help with some tasks.

We can follow the footsteps of kind.sigs.k8s.io for any of the following tasks.

• Netlify site request from Kubernetes account (krew.sigs.k8s.io: Netlify site request kubernetes/org#1668):
  https://kubernetes-sigs-krew.netlify.com

• Get DNS records provisioned for the domain to point to Netlify (DNS REQUEST: krew.sigs.k8s.io kubernetes/k8s.io#614)

• Add custom domain to Netlify (+figure out TLS certs) (https://app.netlify.com/sites/kubernetes-sigs-krew/settings)

• Get Netlify to auto-build/publish when the ./site is updated (or always)

• Get Netlify preview bot to kick in on pull requests changing ./site directory.

  

• Get Netlify build to ignore/skip if ./site is not changed. – Netlify automatically does this based on base path configured in netlify.toml:

  6:02:51 PM: No changes detected in base directory. Returning early from build.
  

• Move documentation out of repo README.md (and other various markdown pages) to ./site/content, and link to the website. (Move install docs to the website, add "moved" notices #522 )

• Ensure Netlify Preview sites aren't indexed by search engines (site: robots.txt #524).

@BenTheElder you probably know best how web hosting was set up for kind.sigs.k8s.io. Can you point us in the right direction?

Shame on me for thinking this is like a one-off thing that's rarely done.
But there's a clean process doc: https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/github-management/subproject-site-requests.md

👋 sorry for the late reply, yes @mrbobbytables was very kind to write this up into a proper process doc, I can't believe I forgot this! thanks again ❤️
