# rsync deployments
|
|
|
|
This GitHub Action deploys files in `GITHUB_WORKSPACE` to a remote folder via rsync over ssh.
|
|
|
|
Use this action in a CD workflow which leaves deployable code in `GITHUB_WORKSPACE`.
|
|
|
|
The underlaying base-image of the docker-image is very small (Alpine (no cache)) which results in fast deployments.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Inputs
|
|
|
|
- `switches`* - The first is for any initial/required rsync flags, eg: `-avzr --delete`
|
|
|
|
- `rsh` - Remote shell commands
|
|
|
|
- `path` - The source path. Defaults to GITHUB_WORKSPACE
|
|
|
|
- `remote_path`* - The deployment target path
|
|
|
|
- `remote_host`* - The remote host
|
|
|
|
- `remote_port` - The remote port. Defaults to 22
|
|
|
|
- `remote_user`* - The remote user
|
|
|
|
- `remote_key`* - The remote ssh key
|
|
|
|
``* = Required``
|
|
|
|
## Required secret
|
|
|
|
This action needs a `DEPLOY_KEY` secret variable. This should be the private key part of a ssh key pair. The public key part should be added to the authorized_keys file on the server that receives the deployment. This should be set in the Github secrets section and then referenced as the `remote_key` input.
|
|
|
|
## Example usage
|
|
|
|
Simple:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
name: DEPLOY
|
|
on:
|
|
push:
|
|
branches:
|
|
- master
|
|
|
|
jobs:
|
|
deploy:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
|
|
- name: rsync deployments
|
|
uses: burnett01/rsync-deployments@4.1
|
|
with:
|
|
switches: -avzr --delete
|
|
path: src/
|
|
remote_path: /var/www/html/
|
|
remote_host: example.com
|
|
remote_user: debian
|
|
remote_key: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_KEY }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Advanced:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jobs:
|
|
deploy:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
|
|
- name: rsync deployments
|
|
uses: burnett01/rsync-deployments@4.1
|
|
with:
|
|
switches: -avzr --delete --exclude="" --include="" --filter=""
|
|
path: src/
|
|
remote_path: /var/www/html/
|
|
remote_host: example.com
|
|
remote_port: 5555
|
|
remote_user: debian
|
|
remote_key: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_KEY }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For better security, I suggest you create additional secrets for remote_host, remote_port and remote_user inputs.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
jobs:
|
|
deploy:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
|
|
- name: rsync deployments
|
|
uses: burnett01/rsync-deployments@4.1
|
|
with:
|
|
switches: -avzr --delete
|
|
path: src/
|
|
remote_path: /var/www/html/
|
|
remote_host: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_HOST }}
|
|
remote_port: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_PORT }}
|
|
remote_user: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_USER }}
|
|
remote_key: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_KEY }}
|
|
```

|
Looking for version 3.0?
|
|
|
|
Check here: https://github.com/Burnett01/rsync-deployments/tree/3.0
|
|
|
|
Version 3.0 uses the ``alpine:latest`` base-image directly.<br>
|
|
Consider upgrading to 4.0 that uses a docker-image ``drinternet/rsync:1.0.1`` that is<br>
|
|
based on ``alpine:latest``and heavily optimized for rsync.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Check here: https://github.com/Burnett01/rsync-deployments/tree/2.0
|
|
|
|
Version 2.0 uses a larger base-image (``ubuntu:latest``).<br>
|
|
Consider upgrading to 3.0 for even faster deployments.
|
