Technical explanation

I’m using GitHub Actions and Google Cloud Run to automatically publish data and deploy it as a public website every time the data is updated. The website can be queried using Datasette.

This project is inspired by Simon Willison's example.

Additional steps to make it work

  • First, you must enable billing in your Google Cloud project.
  • Follow Simon's steps, especially for setting up the Google Cloud Service Account.
  • Enable the Cloud Build and Cloud Run Admin API's in your project.
  • After deploying your first Google Cloud Run service, make sure to allow unauthenticated invocations.
