| 1 | +# Deploy with Deployer |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This workflow automates deployments using [Deployer](https://deployer.org/), executing the deployment recipe defined in |
| 4 | +the consuming repository's `deployment/` directory. |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +To achieve that, the reusable workflow: |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +1. Checks out the repository |
| 9 | +2. Sets up PHP and installs Composer dependencies (production only) |
| 10 | +3. Optionally establishes a WireGuard VPN tunnel to reach private networks |
| 11 | +4. Detects and builds npm workspaces if present |
| 12 | +5. Installs Deployer from the `deployment/` directory |
| 13 | +6. Configures SSH access to the target host |
| 14 | +7. Runs the Deployer `deploy` command for the specified environment |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +## Repository structure |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +The consuming repository is expected to have a `deployment/` directory with its own `composer.json` that includes |
| 19 | +Deployer as a dependency. The `deploy.php` recipe inside that directory should read connection parameters from |
| 20 | +environment variables to avoid storing sensitive data in the repository. |
| 21 | +The following is a basic configuration for the host in the `deploy.php` file: |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +```php |
| 24 | +$hostname = getenv('DEPLOY_HOSTNAME'); |
| 25 | +$port = getenv('DEPLOY_PORT'); |
| 26 | +$user = getenv('DEPLOY_USER'); |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +host('acme_staging') |
| 29 | + ->setHostname($hostname) |
| 30 | + ->setRemoteUser($user) |
| 31 | + ->setPort((int) $port) |
| 32 | + ->setDeployPath('~/deployments') |
| 33 | + ->setSshArguments([ |
| 34 | + '-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null' |
| 35 | + '-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no', |
| 36 | + ]); |
| 37 | +``` |
| 38 | + |
