Deploying to AAI Shared Servers

To deploy projects from Github, a repository must have a deploy key set. This will authorize the server to be able to pull from a repository. A Github deploy key must be unique and there can only be used on a single repository. If you need to deploy multiple repositories, the key must be added to your own Github account instead.

Here are the simple instructions to create a deploy key for a specific shared hosting user account:

ssh aaiuser@<server>.aaiserver.net
ssh-keygen -t rsa
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Paste the output into the Deploy Keys section in the repository admin area.
