applura/deploy

This repository contains a GitHub action that deploys a front-end directory to a project hosted on the Applura platform.

Use it to automatically deploy changes via a GitHub workflow.

Usage

Generate a deploy key

First, navigate to your Applura project and generate a deploy key. Deploy keys can be found via the Applura web interface by navigating to Application > Deploy keys.

Set up a repository secret

Once you have copied your new deploy key. Add it to you GitHub repository via the GitHub web interface by navigating to Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions > New repository secret.

Name the secret APPLURA_DEPLOY_KEY.

Configure the action

Finally, add the following step to your workflow using this snippet:

- name: Set release note
    run: echo "release_note=Git commit $(git rev-parse --short $GITHUB_SHA)" >> $GITHUB_ENV
- name: Deploy to Applura
  uses: applura/deploy@1.0.1
  with:
    key: ${{ secrets.APPLURA_DEPLOY_KEY }}
    note: ${{ env.release_note }}
    directory: ./dist

Where:

• key is the generated deploy key
