Deployer

Deploy applications using GitHub Deployments API.

1. Listen/poll new GitHub deployments
2. Create pending GitHub deployment status and empty Gist
3. Execute command file that deploys application
4. Create success/failure Github deployment status and update Gist
5. Sleep 30 seconds
6. Go to step #1

To register github deployments you can use curl, slashdeploy or something else.

If you are using Slack, you can enable 'Deploy Events -> Show deployment statuses' to get slack notifications with links to Gist.

Usage

deployer -h

  -env string
      Github deployment environment (required)
  -file string
      File to execute when new deployment is available (required)
  -org string
      GitHub org (required)
  -p string
      GitHub password (required)
  -repo string
      GitHub repo (required)
  -sleep int
      Time to sleep between loops (defaults to 30 seconds) (default 30)
  -u string
      GitHub username (required)

Installation

Install deployer on application server:

$ sudo -i
$ curl -L -o /usr/local/bin/deployer https://github.com/mak-it/deployer/releases/download/v0.2.0/deployer-linux-amd64
$ chmod +x /usr/local/bin/deployer

Start deployer on system reboot using cron and screen (assuming you already have a custom deployment script /home/deployuser/deploy-myapp-demo):

$ su - deployuser
$ echo "@reboot /usr/bin/screen -d -m /usr/local/bin/deployer -u ghuser -p ghpass -org mak-it -repo myapp -env demo -file /home/deployuser/deploy-myapp-demo -sleep 30" | crontab -

Start deployer in screen:

$ su - deployuser
$ /usr/bin/screen -d -m /usr/local/bin/deployer -u ghuser -p ghpass -org mak-it -repo myapp -env demo -file /home/deployuser/deploy-myapp-demo -sleep 30

Example

Trigger deployment from developer's machine:

$ deploy --branch v49.3 --env demo

On the application server:

$ deployer -u ghuser -p ghpass -org mak-it -repo myapp -env demo -file bin/deploy-stub -sleep 30

Output:

Deployer
ghuser ghpass mak-it myapp demo myapp-demo
Sleep duration: 30s
