# Deploy Workflow
This is a workflow designed to handle automated deployment tasks. It leverages Docker containers, Composer, and various Node.js package managers to manage PHP and frontend dependencies, build projects, and deploy the application.
## Usage Example
In this example, the `deploy` workflow is invoked with a custom Docker image, uses `npm` as the package manager, builds the frontend from the `frontend` directory, and passes customized Composer arguments. Secrets are provided for the SSH key and environment configuration.
```yaml
jobs:
deploy:
uses: your-repo/.github/workflows/deploy.yml@main
with:
environment: production
image: your-custom-image
node-package-manager: npm
frontend-directory: frontend
composer-args: --no-dev
secrets:
ssh-private-key: ${{ secrets.PRODUCTION_SSH_PRIVATE_KEY }}
env: ${{ secrets.PRODUCTION }}
```
### Secrets
- **ssh-private-key** (required):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Description:** The SSH private key used to access the remote server for deployment. This is required for setting up SSH agent and making secure connections during the deployment process.
- **env** (required):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Description:** The contents of the `.env` file, which is passed in as a secret.
### Input Parameters
- **environment** (required!):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Description:** The environment being deployed .e.g. production
- **image** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Default:** `git.qlic.nl/qlic/deploy:php8.3-node22`
- **Description:** The Docker image used for deployment, which can be overridden if necessary.
- **node-package-manager** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Description:** The package manager to be used for the Node.js frontend build. Accepted values include `npm`, `yarn`, and `pnpm`.
- **frontend-directory** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Description:** Directory where the frontend code is located, if applicable. Used when switching to the appropriate directory for Node.js builds.
- **composer-args** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Default:**
```bash
--verbose --prefer-dist --no-progress --no-interaction --no-dev --optimize-autoloader --ignore-platform-reqs
```
- **Description:** Arguments passed to the Composer setup command for PHP dependency installation. These arguments can be customized based on specific requirements.
- **username** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Default:** `${{ vars.REGISTRY_USERNAME }}`
- **Description:** Username for the Docker registry authentication. Defaults to the value stored in `vars.REGISTRY_USERNAME`.
- **password** (optional):
- **Type:** `string`
- **Default:** `${{ vars.REGISTRY_PASSWORD }}`
- **Description:** Password for the Docker registry authentication. Defaults to the value stored in `vars.REGISTRY_PASSWORD`.
## Workflow Job: `deploy`
The `deploy` job handles the core deployment process. It consists of multiple steps to set up dependencies, manage environment variables, build frontend assets, configure SSH, and deploy the application.
### Steps
1. **Checkout Code:**
- **Action:** `actions/checkout@v4`
- **Description:** This step checks out the repository's code.
2. **Setup Composer:**
- **Action:**
Uses (`https://git.qlic.nl/actions/setup-composer@main`) to install PHP dependencies.
- **Inputs:**
- `args`: Composer arguments passed from the input `composer-args`.
3. **Create `.env` File from Secret:**
- **Run Command:**
```bash
echo "${{ secrets.env }}" > .env
```
- **Description:** Writes the `.env` file using the secret passed through the `env` secret.
4. **Build Frontend (Optional):**
- **Conditional Step:** Runs only if a `node-package-manager` is provided.
- **Run Commands:**
- If a `frontend-directory` is provided, it switches to that directory using `cd`.
- It installs dependencies using the provided Node.js package manager (e.g., `npm`, `yarn`, or `pnpm`).
- If a valid package manager is provided, it will also run the build command.
- **Description:** Handles the frontend build process by installing Node.js dependencies and running the build script, if applicable.
5. **Set Up SSH Agent:**
- **Action:** `webfactory/ssh-agent@v0.5.3`
- **Description:** Sets up the SSH agent using the private key provided in the `ssh-private-key` secret. This is necessary for secure connections to the remote server during deployment.
6. **Disable Strict Host Key Checking:**
- **Run Command:**
```bash
echo "Host *" >> ~/.ssh/config
echo " StrictHostKeyChecking no" >> ~/.ssh/config
```
- **Description:** Disables strict host key checking for SSH, allowing connections to new or unknown hosts without requiring manual confirmation.
7. **Deploy Application:**
- **Run Command:**
```bash
vendor/bin/dep deploy environment=production
```
- **Description:** Runs the deployment script using the `Deployer` tool, targeting the `production` environment.
