Dry Run Example

A dry run will help check that your tasks and strategies appear correct before running them.

vendor/bin/rocketeer deploy --on="$YOURCONNECTION" --branch="$BRANCHNAME" --pretend --verbose

Key / Password Prompt

Depending on the way you are connecting to your server provide the key or password, the below example will use the users id_rsa key to connect via ssh.

No password or SSH key is set for [production/0], which would you use? (key) [key/password]
# Type key
Please enter the full path to your key ($PATHTOUSER/.ssh/id_rsa)
# Type Enter
If a keyphrase is required, provide it
# Type Enter

Setting up strategies

Tasks

To set up a task: - Create the task class in the folder .rocketeer/tasks/. - ```php <?php declare(strict_types=1);

    namespace Tasks;

    class TestTask extends \Rocketeer\Abstracts\AbstractTask
    {

        /**
         * Description of the Task
         *
         * @var string
         */
        protected $description = 'Test Task -- Add more description here...';

        /**
         * Run the task.
         *
         * @return void
         */
        public function execute()
        {
            $this->explainer->line('Running test task...');

            /* Run Test Task Function */

            $this->explainer->line('Successfully ran test task...');
        }

    }
  ```

• Call the Tasks\TestTask::class, here we place it after the deploy step.

  • ```php // Tasks to execute before the core Rocketeer Tasks 'before' => array( 'setup' => array(), 'deploy' => array(), 'cleanup' => array(), ),

  // Tasks to execute after the core Rocketeer Tasks 'after' => array( 'setup' => array(), 'deploy' => array( Tasks\TestTask::class, ), 'cleanup' => array(), ), ```

Task - Functions

When working with setting up the tasks knowing the location of the task when it is executed is important. Rocketeer has some methods that allow you to run bash commands in the certain folders.

• $this->runInCurrentRelease('$BASHCMD')
• $this->run('$BASHCMD')

Getting the current connection: - $this->getConnection()->getName()

More methods from extending the AbstractTask The api docs - AbstractTask
