I would like to solve this at a small VPS Provider:
Github worflow, when pushed files to GitHub, then "GH workflows" copies the php files to the live VPS server.
How can I copy them?
.github/workflows/vps-deploy-prod.yml
:name: vps-deploy-prod
on:
push:
branches:
- master
jobs:
build: 'VPS Run Deploy'
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: 'Checkout'
uses: action/checkout@master
- name: 'Deploy'
run: make vps-run-deploy
The Makefile:
##### VPS specific target
vps-run-deploy:
?? copy files via ssh scp...?
You might consider the GitHub action appleboy/scp-action
GitHub Action for copying files and artifacts via SSH.
Here is an example in this project: renatomh/gobarber-backend/.github/workflows/main.yml
:
# Copy the repository to the directory on the server/VPS used for the application
- name: Copy dist to VPS
uses: appleboy/scp-action@master
with:
host: ${{ secrets.SSH_HOST }}
username: ${{ secrets.SSH_USER }}
port: ${{ secrets.SSH_PORT }}
key: ${{ secrets.SSH_KEY }}
# Selecting all folders except "node_modules"
source: ".,!node_modules"
# The path is based on the directory where the user logged into the server starts
target: "~/app/gobarber-backend"
