    [ref]                deploy to [ref], the 'ref' setting, or latest tag

Configuration

By default deploy(1) will look for ./deploy.conf, consisting of one or more environments, [stage], [production], etc, followed by directives.

[stage]
key /path/to/some.pem
user deployer
host n.n.n.n
repo [email protected]:visionmedia/express.git
path /var/www/myapp.com
ref origin/master
post-deploy /var/www/myapp.com/update.sh

Directives

key (optional)

Path to identity file used by ssh -i.

  key /path/to/some.pem

ref (optional)

When specified, HEAD is reset to ref. When deploying production typically this will not be used, as deploy(1) will utilize the most recent tag by default, however this is useful for a staging environment, as shown below where HEAD is updated and set to the develop branch.

    ref origin/develop

user

User for deployment.

   user deployer

host

Server hostname.

   host 50.17.255.50

repo

GIT repository to clone.

   repo [email protected]:visionmedia/express.git

path

Deployment path.

    path /var/www/myapp.com

forward-agent

Webhosts normally use read-only deploy keys to access private git repositories. If you'd rather use the credentials of the person invoking the deploy command, put forward-agent yes in the relevant config sections. Now the deploy script will invoke ssh -A when deploying and there's no need to keep SSH keys on your servers.

Hooks

All hooks are arbitrary commands, executed relative to path/current, aka the previous deployment for pre-deploy, and the new deployment for post-deploy. Of course you may specify absolute paths as well.

pre-deploy

  pre-deploy ./bin/something

post-deploy

  post-deploy ./bin/restart

test

Post-deployment test command after post-deploy. If this command fails, deploy(1) will attempt to revert to the previous deployment, ignoring tests (for now), as they are assumed to have run correctly.

  test ./something
