webship 0.1.2

Tools to deploy python web application. The build process is run in container using podman so make sure you have podman properly setup on the build machine.

Install

pipx install webship

Usage

Create directory to hold the deploy project:-

mkdir -p myapp_deploy

Create webship.ini to hold configuration about the deploy:-

[fetch]
repo = git@github.com:xoxzoeu/myapp.git
clone_args = recursive

[deploy]
path = /app/myapp
hosts =
    127.0.0.1
    127.0.0.2

To build the app:-

webship fetch
webship build myapp 1.0.1 --docker_image=myapp

That will generate the release tarball in build/myapp-1.0.1.tar.gz. Before deploying the release tarball, we can test it first to make sure everything is working as expected:-

webship run build/myapp-1.0.1.tar.gz ".venv/bin/myapp manage runserver 0.0.0.0:8000" --env-file=/home/kamal/python/myapp_deploy/env 

To deploy:-

webship deploy build/myapp-1.0.1.tar.gz

Deploy directory structure is like below:-

    deploy_path (default to /app/<project_name>)
        releases/
        current --> releases/<project_name>-0.0.1

Active release will be /app/<project_name>/current which is a symlink to active version. This structure will allow multiple apps to be deployed on the same server.
