Here is tutorial for deploy this lume project to Cloudflare Pages:

First of all, open ./src/_data/site.yml, then edit url :

author:
  url: https://lume-blog-muse.pages.dev/

This is your site url. Cloudflare pages provide free domain for your site. For example, you will create a cloudflare pages project name my-blog, then free domain will be https://my-blog.pages.dev/, so replace url:

author:
  url: https://my-blog.pages.dev/

What happended behind this: _config.js will read this value and put it in lume({location: new URL("www.example.com"),})

Commit changes, push to your blog repository.

Go to your Cloudflare dashboard, click "Pages" -> "Create a project".

Create a project from your lume blog repository.

At "Set up builds and deployments" step, fill in the following:

1. Project name: my-blog
2. Build command:

curl -fsSL https://deno.land/x/install/install.sh | sh && /opt/buildhome/.deno/bin/deno run -A https://deno.land/x/lume/ci.js

If you forget what url you write in site.yml, or prompt "A project with this name already exists", you can also use --location= overriding url settings.

For example, now Cloudflare Pages project name is my-blog2, then use this build command:

curl -fsSL https://deno.land/x/install/install.sh | sh && /opt/buildhome/.deno/bin/deno run -A https://deno.land/x/lume/ci.js --location=https://my-blog2.pages.dev/

3. Build output directory: _site

That's all, click "Save and Deploy".

Whenever your blog repository updated, deployment will auto start and keep your site up to date. You don't have to repeat this step again and again.
