This is managed using git hooks. You'll need the server in your .ssh/config file, and the remote:
git remote add production user@server:pstf-holding.git
You can only deploy the main branch. To do so, run the following command:
git push production main
i.e. you are pushing main to the production remote. This will run the hooks, and restart nginx for you.
If you want to execute the hooks again without changing the code, you'll need an empty commit, then push to production:
git commit --allow-empty -m "trigger deploy"
git push production main
Requires a bare git repo on the host, called pstf-holding.git. This is created with
git init --bare pstf-holding.git in the home directory.
Create the working tree directory where nginx will serve the files from and fix the permissions:
sudo mkdir /var/www/pstf-holding
sudo chown www-data:www-data /var/www/pstf-holding
sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www
sudo usermod -a -G www-data user
The post receive hook then needs to be created on the host, by copying deploy/hooks/post-receive to
~/pstf-holding.git/hooks/post-receive and chmod +x hooks/post-receive on the host. This will allow the script to
run on deployment and copy the code to the correct work tree.
Run a code deploy from your local machine to receive the source tree for the first time.
git push production main
N.B. if your production server is running an old version of git it may not know about the main branch being default. The error looks like:
remote: Main ref received. Deploying main branch to production...
remote: fatal: You are on a branch yet to be born
Fix that by checking out main on the host server with e.g.:
git --work-tree=/var/www/pstf-holding --git-dir=/home/user/pstf-holding.git checkout -f main
After the first deploy, replace the copied hook with a symlink to the checked out hook (so you can update the hook):
ln -sf /var/www/pstf-holding/deploy/hooks/post-receive hooks/post-receive
chmod +x hooks/post-receive
chmod +x /var/www/pstf-holding/deploy/hooks/post-receive
The nginx config in deploy/nginx expects an SSL certificate - this should be created via LetsEncrypt / certbot.
For your SSL certificate to validate, the site must be accessible via nginx; create the symlinks to the temporary nginx config:
sudo ln -s /var/www/pstf-holding/deploy/nginx/init.jcs_com_io_org /etc/nginx/sites-available/jcs_com_io_org
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/jcs_com_io_org /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/jcs_com_io_org
sudo nginx -s reload
Run certbot:
sudo certbot # And follow the instructions
It will make changes to the initialisation config, discard these changes so the source tree is clean.
git --work-tree=/var/www/pstf-holding --git-dir=/home/cloo/pstf-holding.git reset --hard
Then switch over to the production nginx config: sudo ln -sf /var/www/pstf-holding/deploy/nginx/jcs_com_io_org /etc/nginx/sites-available/jcs_com_io_org sudo nginx -s reload
