It was reviewed and republished on\n2020-11-13.\n\n{: .alert .alert-info .note}\n\n\n[GitLab Pages](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/) allows you to create and\nhost GitLab project websites from a user account or group for free on\n[GitLab.com](https://www.gitlab.com/) or on your self-managed GitLab\ninstance.\n\n\nIn this post, I will explain how the [GitLab Pages\ndaemon](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages) obtains a domain's\nconfiguration using the\n\nGitLab API, specifically on [GitLab.com](https://www.gitlab.com/).\n\n\n## How does GitLab Pages know where to find your website files?\n\n\nGitLab Pages will use object storage to store the contents of your web site.\nYou can follow the development of this new feature\n[here](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3901).\n\n\nCurrently, GitLab Pages uses an NFS shared mount drive to store the contents\nof your website.\n\nYou can define the value of this path by defining the\n[`pages_path`](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/#change-storage-path)\nin your `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` file.\n\n\nWhen you deploy a website using the `pages:` keyword in your\n`.gitlab-ci.yml` file, a `public` path artifact must be defined, containing\nthe files available for your website. This `public` artifact eventually\nmakes its way into the NFS shared mount.\n\n\nWhen you deploy a website to GitLab Pages a domain will be created based on\nthe [custom Pages domain you have\nconfigured](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/#configuration).\nFor [GitLab.com](https://www.gitlab.com/), the pages domain is\n`*.gitlab.io`, if you create a project named `myproject.gitlab.io` and\nenable HTTPS, a wildcard SSL certificate will be used.\n\nYou can also [setup a custom\ndomain](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/custom_domains_ssl_tls_certification/)\nfor your project, for example `myawesomedomain.com`.\n\n\nFor every project (aka domain) that is served by the Pages daemon, there\nmust be a directory in the NFS shared mount that matches your domain name\nand holds its contents. For example, if we had a project named\n`myproject.gitlab.io`, the Pages daemon would look for your `.html` files\nunder `/path/to/shared/pages/myproject/myproject.gitlab.io/public`\ndirectory.\n\nThis is how GitLab Pages serves the content published by the `pages:`\nkeyword in your CI configuration.\n\n\nBefore [GitLab 12.10](/releases/2020/04/22/gitlab-12-10-released/) was\nreleased, the Pages daemon would rely on a file named `config.json` located\nin your project's directory in the NFS shared mount, that is\n`/path/to/shared/pages/myproject/myproject.gitlab.io/config.json`.\n\nThis file contains metadata related to your project and [custom domain\nnames](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages) you may have setup.\n\n\n```json\n\n{\n  \"domains\":[\n    {\n      \"Domain\":\"myproject.gitlab.io\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Domain\": \"mycustomdomain.com\",\n      \"Certificate\": \"--certificate contents--\",\n      \"Key\": \"--key contents--\"\n    }\n  ],\n  \"id\":123,\n  \"access_control\":true,\n  \"https_only\":true\n}\n\n```\n\nGitLab Pages has been a very popular addition to GitLab, and the number of\nhosted websites on GitLab.com has increased over time. We are currently\nhosting over 251,000 websites!\n\nOn start-up, the Pages daemon would [traverse all\ndirectories](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/blob/v1.21.0/app.go#L448)\nin the NFS shared mount and load the configuration of all the deployed Pages\nprojects into memory.\n\nBefore 09-19-2019, the Pages daemon would take [approximately 25 minutes to\nbe ready to serve\nrequests](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/issues/252) per\ninstance on GitLab.com.\n\nAfter upgrading GitLab Pages to version\n[`v1.9.0`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/merge_requests/185),\nthere were some improvements in some dependencies that reduced booting time\nto approximately five minutes. This was great but not ideal.\n\n\n## GitLab API-based configuration\n\n\nAPI-based configuration was\n[introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/issues/282) in\nGitLab 12.10.\n\nWith API-based configuration, the daemon will start serving content in just\na few seconds after booting.\n\nFor example, for a particular Pages node on GitLab.com, it usually is ready\nto serve content within one minute after starting.\n\n\nOn [GitLab.com](https://www.gitlab.com/), the Pages daemon now sources the\ndomain configuration via an internal API endpoint\n\n`/api/v4/internal/pages?domain=myproject.gitlab.io`.\n\nThis is done on demand per domain and the configuration is cached in memory\nfor a certain period of time to speed up serving content from that Pages\nnode.\n\n\nThe response from the API is very similar to the contents of the\n`config.json` file:\n\n\n```json\n\n{\n    \"certificate\": \"--cert-contents--\",\n    \"key\": \"--key-contents--\",\n    \"lookup_paths\": [\n        {\n            \"access_control\": true,\n            \"https_only\": true,\n            \"prefix\": \"/\",\n            \"project_id\": 123,\n            \"source\": {\n                \"path\": \"myproject/myproject.gitlab.io/public/\",\n                \"type\": \"file\"\n            }\n        }\n    ]\n}\n\n```\n\n\nYou can see that the source type is `file`. This means that the Pages daemon\nwill still serve the contents from the NFS shared mount. We are actively\nworking on removing the NFS dependency from GitLab Pages by [updating the\nGitLab Pages\narchitecture](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/1316).\n\n\nWe are planning to [transition GitLab pages to object storage instead of\nNFS](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3901). This will\nessentially [enable GitLab Pages to run on\nKubernetes](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/39586) in the\nfuture.\n\n\n**Update**:\n\nWe have now [rolled out zip source type on\nGitLab.com](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/production/-/issues/2808).\nThis is behavior is behind feature flag and it's not the final\nimplementation.\n\nAs of 10-22-2020 we serve about 75% of Pages projects from zip and object\nstorage and we're getting closer to removing the NFS dependency!\n\n\n## Self-managed GitLab instances\n\n\nThe changes to the GitLab Pages architecture were piloted on GitLab.com,\nwhich is possibly the largest GitLab Pages implementation.\n\nOnce all the changes supporting the move to an API-based configuration are\ncompleted, they will be rolled out to self-managed customers.\n\nYou can find more details and the issues we faced while rolling out\nAPI-based configuration in this\n[issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/issues/282).\n\n\nIf you can't wait to speed up your Pages nodes startup, we have a potential\nguide in this [issue\ndescription](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/28298#potential-workaround)\nwhich explains how we enabled the API on GitLab.com. However, this method\nwill be removed in the near future.\n\n\n**Update**:\n\nYou can now enable API-based configuration by following [this\nguide](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/#gitlab-api-based-configuration).\n\n\n## Domain source configuration and API status\n\n\nIn the meantime, we are working toward adding [a new configuration flag for\nGitLab Pages](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/217912) which\nwill allow you to choose the domain configuration source by specifying\n`domain_config_source` in your `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` file.\n\nBy default, GitLab Pages will use the `disk` source configuration the same\nway is used today.\n\n\nIn the background, the Pages daemon will start [checking the API\nstatus](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/-/merge_requests/304) by\ncalling the `/api/v4/internal/pages/status` endpoint. This will help you\ncheck if the Pages daemon is ready to talk to the GitLab API, especially\nwhen you are [running Pages on a separate\nserver](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/#running-gitlab-pages-on-a-separate-server).\n\n\nPlease check the [GitLab Pages adminstration\nguide](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/pages/#troubleshooting) for\nfurther troubleshooting.\n\n\n\u003C!-- image: image-url -->\n\nCover image by
