CodeIgniter Deployer

A Deployment Tool for CodeIgniter 3.0.

You can deploy CodeIgniter with one command.

This is based on Deployer 3.0.

└── deploy/
     ├── deploy.php ... config file for Deployer
     ├── deploy.sh  ... script to deploy
     └── logs/

Requirements

• PHP 5.4.0 or later
• Composer
• Git
• SSH
• Shell

Installation

Install this project with Composer:

$ cd /path/to/codeigniter/
$ composer require kenjis/codeigniter-deployer:[email protected] --dev

Install deploy folder to your CodeIgniter application folder:

$ php vendor/kenjis/codeigniter-deployer/install.php

• Above command always overwrites exisiting files.
• You must run it at CodeIgniter project root folder.

Configuration

Configure deploy/deployer.php.

Servers

// Your production server
server('prod', 'your.server.example.com', 22)
    ->user('username')
    ->forwardAgent()
    ->stage('production')
    ->env('branch', 'master')
    ->env('deploy_path', '/var/www/your-codeigniter-app');

See https://github.com/deployphp/docs/blob/master/servers.md for details.

Repository

set('repository', '[email protected]:org/your-codeigniter-app.git');

Configure Your Servers

Apache

See the sample below. In this case, /var/www/your-codeigniter-app is a base folder.

your-codeigniter-app/
├── current -> /var/www/your-codeigniter-app/releases/20150529181638
└── releases/
     ├── 20150529180505/
     ├── 20150529181203/
     └── 20150529181638/

Each deployment is installed in releases/YYYYMMDDHHMMSS folder.

The current release is your-codeigniter-app/current folder, and it is a symbolic link to releases/20150529181638 folder.

So if you use codeigniter-composer-installer's folder structure, your Apache configuratoin is like this:

DocumentRoot /var/www/your-codeigniter-app/current/public

If you use CodeIgniter as the default folder structure, your Apache configuratoin is like this:

DocumentRoot /var/www/your-codeigniter-app/current

sudo

Deployer will try to get write permission with the sudo command, so this command has to be running without prompt password and without tty.

Here is an example of configuration:

Defaults:username !requiretty

username   ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/setfacl

If you don't need sudo for your deployment, you can set in deploy/deployer.php.

set('writable_use_sudo', false);

How to Deploy

$ cd /path/to/codeigniter/
$ cd deploy/
$ sh deploy.sh
