How to serve the pkgdown on my own subdomain?

Publishing Your Results

I am trying to host the pkgdown website for a package to my own subdomain:

On travis I have:

deploy:
  provider: script
  script: Rscript -e 'pkgdown::deploy_site_github()'
  skip_cleanup: true

On the help page it mentions " If you're using a custom CNAME, make sure you have set the url in _pkgdown.yaml :"

I tried adding to _pkgdown.yml url:subdomain.mywebsite.dev
but id hasn't worked.

I am not sure what should I change or where.

In the settings of the repository, as there is an option under Github pages>Custom domain to specify where I want it.
Also following the Github Documentation I found that I should set up something on my own website. But it is not clear what, as I can add an entry for:

mysubdomain CNAME 1h user.github.io/mypackage

digging some websites using a similar setup I found this:

$ dig patchwork.data-imaginist.com +noall +answer
patchwork.data-imaginist.com. 899 IN	CNAME	thomasp85.github.io.
thomasp85.github.io.	3598	IN	A	185.199.108.153
thomasp85.github.io.	3598	IN	A	185.199.110.153
thomasp85.github.io.	3598	IN	A	185.199.111.153
thomasp85.github.io.	3598	IN	A	185.199.109.153

But I'm not sure how to set up this.

How can I redirect the build to show up on my desired subdomain?

Still haven't found a way to solve this. Is there anyone who can provide a hint or their experience?
