setup repo to automatically render

[nikomatsakis]

It'd be nice if, after each push, you could go visit a GH pages or something and see the output, so that people can go read the current contents. If you're interested in doing this, leave a comment! (If you need collaborator status, I can add you.)

This is what I do for my FFI guide, with this slightly more complicated one we use for mdbook because we need to regenerate CSS and API docs. I'll create a PR which adds a basic travis.yml file and the relevant CI stuff.

@Michael-F-Bryan hmm -- it doesn't quite seem to be working. Any idea what further steps I might have to do? I also added you as a collaborator I think.

[nikomatsakis]

Oh, I guess I see the problem:

https://travis-ci.org/rust-lang-nursery/rustc-guide/builds/330775541#L462

mdbook command not found

OK, so, @Michael-F-Bryan I did a bunch of setup but now I'm getting weird errors about SSL. Any tips?

I guess I need some stuff like this:

https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook/blob/bcfb37d96430762885bc3b320327b61243a8239d/ci/github_pages.sh#L34-L41

Found this handy gist https://gist.github.com/willprice/e07efd73fb7f13f917ea

[nikomatsakis]

But there also exists this https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/deployment/pages/ -- which kind of sounds like exactly what we want?

[nikomatsakis]

Woohoo, a couple of commits later, it seems to be working!
