Installation
npm install -g shipit-cli
npm install --save-dev shipit-deploy
shipit-deploy : It is a set of deployment tasks for Shipit based on git and rsync commands.
Getting Started : Creating Deployment file
Then we need to create our deployment file (shipitfile.js)
module.exports = function(shipit) {
require('shipit-deploy')(shipit);
shipit.initConfig( {
default: {
workspace: '/tmp/workspace',
deployTo : '/tmp/deployto',
repositoryUrl: 'GitHub Reporsitory URL',
ignores: ['.git', 'node_modules'],
keepReleases: 2,
deleteOnRollback: false,
key: 'path/to/key',
shallowClone: true
},
dev: {
servers: 'devserver.com'
},
prod: {
servers: 'prodserver.com'
}
});
shipit.blTask('build', function() {
//build the project
});
};
In the ShipIt Configuration file we need to add some default parameters to begin with, they are :
workspace : ShipIt uses to prepare to deploy, will wipe of folder after deployment
deployTo : where the deployment file will be going
repositoryURL : the github repository
ignores : an array of what to ignore from your repository
keepReleases : how many releases to store on the server before deleting them
key : key to login to github
shallowClone : to perform shallow clean or not
We have also used tasks which we will do to build the project everytime before deployment. We can even use grunt to build our project before deployment.
For Deployment
npm dev deploy // deployment to dev server
npm prod deploy // deployment to prod server
