GitHub action scss build needed?

[reserves]

I’m pretty new to Hugo and GitHub actions.

I’m using a Theme which uses scss and this builds fine when I make changes locally.

However, I have this site on GitHub, I’ve set up actions to build the content using Hugo.

The problem is, no changes I’ve made to the scss files are being displayed online, even if I commit my local changes of the scss build to GitHub.

I can’t figure out how this is possible? There’s a gap in my knowledge, are the Hugo rendered files in memory? If not how can my changes not get rendered?

Go easy on me, been a long night!

You need Hugo extended version. Most likely you missed to set that in your GitHub action workflow.

This is the workflow I use on all the sites I host on GitHub pages. See the line where it say “extended: true”.

name: Deploy Pages on Push

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

concurrency:
  group: deploy
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          submodules: true # Fetch Hugo themes (true OR recursive)
          fetch-depth: 0 # Fetch all history for .GitInfo and .Lastmod

      - name: Setup Hugo
        uses: peaceiris/actions-hugo@v2
        with:
          hugo-version: "0.95.0"
          extended: true

      - name: Build
        run: hugo

      - name: Deploy
        uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
        with:
          github_token: ${{ github.token }}
          publish_dir: ./public
