# ssh deployments
2019-02-09 16:17:45 +03:00
Deploy code with rsync over ssh.
Execute remote scripts before or after rsync
2019-10-03 01:51:32 +03:00
NodeJS version is more than a minute `faster` than simple Docker version.
This GitHub Action deploys specific directory from `GITHUB_WORKSPACE` to a folder on a server via rsync over ssh, using NodeJS.
2019-02-09 16:17:45 +03:00
2019-09-26 00:24:25 +03:00
This action would usually follow a build/test action which leaves deployable code in `GITHUB_WORKSPACE`, eg `dist`;
2019-02-09 16:17:45 +03:00
In addition to rsync, this action provides scripts execution on remote host before and/or after rsync.

## Issues
This is a GitHub Action wrapping `rsync` via `ssh`. Only issues with action functionality can be fixed here.
2022-12-31 17:20:15 +03:00
Almost 95% of the issues are related to wrong SSH connection or `rsync` params and permissions.
These issues are not related to the action itself.
2022-12-31 17:20:15 +03:00
- Check manually your ssh connection from your client before opening a bug report.
- Check `rsync` params for your use-case. Default params are not going to be enough wor everyone, it highly depends on your setup.

- Check manually your rsync command from your client before opening a bug report.
2022-12-31 12:33:16 +03:00
I've added e2e test for this action.
2022-12-31 17:20:15 +03:00
Real example is executed on every PR merge to `main`.
2022-12-31 12:33:16 +03:00
Check actions tab for example.
