Deploying with Idephix

Deploying a PHP application can be done in many ways, this recipe shows you our best strategy for a generic PHP application, and it is composed of several steps:

  • Preparing the local project
  • Preparing the remote server
  • Syncing the project to the server
  • Linking shared files across releases (configuration files, cache, logs, etc)
  • Switching the symlink for the new release, finalizing the deploy

The recipe organize your code on the server using a directory hierarchy borrowed from Capistrano:

├── current -> /var/www/my_app_name/releases/20150120114500/
├── releases
│   ├── 20150080072500
│   ├── 20150090083000
│   ├── 20150100093500
│   ├── 20150110104000
│   └── 20150120114500
└── shared
    └── <linked_files and linked_dirs>

So you can keep multiple releases on the server and switch the current release just creating a symlink to the actual one you want to make current. This allows you to easily rollback from one release to another.

These tasks are based on several configuration options that you can define in your idxrc.php file:

.. literalinclude:: ../Cookbook/Deploy/idxrc.php
    :language: php
    :caption: idxrc.php
    :emphasize-lines: 4-17,24-26
