I want to be able to quickly deploy updates to a site that is fairly busy. For smaller sites I would just FTP the new files over the old ones. This one, however, has a few large dll’s that regularly get updated and while they are copying the site is effectively down (plus there is the hassle of making backups of them in case something goes wrong.
When I build my ASP.NET web application I get a .dll file with the code for the website in it (which is great) but the website also needs all the .aspx files and friends, and these need to be placed in the correct directory structure. How can I get this all in one directory as the result of each build? Trying to pick the right files out of the source directory is a pain.
I have added a database file (.mdf) to my application using Visual Studio built-in functionality. Database is in the App_Data folder. It is running fine. But when I publish it and upload it to server it gives this error.
I have an app whose only dependency is flask, which runs fine outside docker and binds to the default port 5000. Here is the full source:
What is the recommended way of handling settings for local development and the production server? Some of them (like constants, etc) can be changed/accessed in both, but some of them (like paths to static files) need to remain different, and hence should not be overwritten every time the new code is deployed.
What’s the best strategy for managing third-party Python libraries with Google App Engine?
We have created a bunch of custom plugins at our agency, and the whole packaged website is like a ‘product’ at hand.
We are a very small company working with a specific customer base. In this, we often have to create small WP plugins specific to the customer. Typically, we re-use our own basic folder structure and files (base php file that lays out some standard variables, assets folder structure for css and js files, installation/settings features templates, etc.).
I do development on one box and use a second for production. Right now I just dump the database and then do a find a replace for the URL changes; then copy over the files and import the new SQL.
I’m currently developing my WordPress locally, committing my code to GitHub with Git and then SSHing into my server and doing a “git pull” to update my code. Is this a good option for code deployment onto a WordPress site (I obviously have root level access to my server in this case.) I know of things like Capistrano, but would that be overkill for deployment to a WordPress site? How can I make the most of Git/GitHub in this case?
