This package allows you to deploy a website on a dedicated server or a VPS by installing the various tools necessary for the operation of the site and by automating the deployment process.

Prerequis

2. Ubuntu Server operating system
3. have a bash version >= 4 (you can do bash --version ) otherwise update the bash shell

5. Instal anistrano (https://ansistrano.com)

Installation

Install via composer

composer require guysolamour/laravel-deploy

Preparing the server

1- Connect to the server

ssh root@000.000.000.000
# 000.000.000.000 must be changed with your server ip address

2- Create a user to run the tasks

sudo useradd user -s /bin/bash -d /home/user -m -G sudo
# user must be changed with your own user

3- Add created user to sudoers file

sudo visudo
# Append user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL at the end of line
# user must be changed with your own user

4- Install python on the remote server

sudo apt install -y python-apt

5- Disconnect from the remote machine and copy host machine ssh key for the created user

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@000.000.000.000
# If you dont have generate ssh key before use sshkeygen command to generate newly key
# 000.000.000.000 must be changed with your server ip address

Scaffold

Run the scaffold command to generate the necessary base files. This command must be executed once and at the very beginning.

./vendor/bin/deploy scaffold --host 000.001.002.003 --domain domain.com --application appname

THE DIFFERENT STEPS

1- Generate the file that will contain the passwords

./vendor/bin/deploy password:create
# Enter the password that will be used for decryption
# This password must be saved in clear in the .vaultpass file
# This file must not be versioned.

2- Add theses variables with the correct data

# The deployement user password. The user created on the server.
vault_user_password: "password"

# The deployment database password
vault_database_password: "password"

# The database root user password
vault_database_root_password: "password"

# The administrator password for admin panel in local
vault_admin_local_password: "password"

# The administrator password for admin panel in production
vault_admin_production_password: "password"

# The ftp password for backup. Can be blank.
vault_ftp_password: "password"

# Copy and paste the output of *php artisan key:generate --show command
vault_app_key: "base64:appkey"

3- To modify the file containing the passwords

./vendor/bin/deploy password:edit

4- To view the contents of the file

./vendor/bin/deploy password:view

4- To delete the contents of the file

./vendor/bin/deploy password:delete
