DocPad: rsync Deploy Script

• Place deploy.sh in {docpad folder}/bin/
• Create (or edit) a .env file in your docpad folder with the following values:

#!/bin/bash
DEPLOY_SOURCE_DIR="out/"
DEPLOY_DEST_DIR="~/public_html/"
DEPLOY_SERVER=deploy-server-name
DEPLOY_ACCOUNT=deploy-login-name

• Create a .deployignore file in docpad folder with the following values:

**.svn
.git
.gitignore

• Test with ./bin/deploy.sh -n deploy with./bin/deploy.sh

deploy.sh

#!/bin/bash
set -o nounset
set -o errexit

NFLAG=""

while getopts ":n" opt; do
  case $opt in
    n)
      NFLAG="-n"
      ;;
    \?)
      echo "Invalid option: -$OPTARG" >&2
      ;;
  esac
done
 
# Set the environment by loading from the file "environment" in the same directory
DIR="$( cd "$( dirname $( dirname "$0" ) )" && pwd)"
source "$DIR/.env"
 
echo "Deploying ${DIR}/${DEPLOY_SOURCE_DIR} to ${DEPLOY_ACCOUNT}@${DEPLOY_SERVER}:${DEPLOY_DEST_DIR}"
 
docpad generate --env static
chmod -R og+Xr out
rsync $NFLAG -rvzp --size-only --delete --exclude-from="$DIR/.deployignore" "${DIR}/${DEPLOY_SOURCE_DIR}" "${DEPLOY_ACCOUNT}@${DEPLOY_SERVER}:${DEPLOY_DEST_DIR}"

Thanks, very useful!

I encountered a small problem (source: not found) when I forgot to make deploy.sh executable and executed it with sh ./bin/deploy.sh instead. Otherwise it worked perfectly!

A great starting point, thanks for this!

Hi. How can I deploy to a server w/ custom port?

You can create ~/.ssh/config file and specify port.
http://nerderati.com/2011/03/17/simplify-your-life-with-an-ssh-config-file/

Please add these changes to the scripts so that you can specify the SSH port number:

.env

#!/bin/bash
DEPLOY_SOURCE_DIR="out/"
DEPLOY_DEST_DIR="~/public_html/"
DEPLOY_SERVER=deploy-server-name

# Add env to specify SSH port
# ------------------------------------
DEPLOY_PORT=22
# ------------------------------------

DEPLOY_ACCOUNT=deploy-login-name

deploy.sh
change rsync call to:

rsync $NFLAG -rvzp --size-only --delete -e "ssh -p ${DEPLOY_PORT}" --exclude-from="$DIR/.deployignore" "${DIR}/${DEPLOY_SOURCE_DIR}" "${DEPLOY_ACCOUNT}@${DEPLOY_SERVER}:${DEPLOY_DEST_DIR}"
