# Altax

Altax is a deployment tool for PHP.
I designed it as a command-line tool for running tasks to remote servers
like the [Capistrano](https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano), [Fabric](http://fabric.readthedocs.org/) and [Cinamon](https://github.com/kentaro/cinnamon).
It also has a plugin mechanism for managing and installing tasks easily.
This is a simple git deploy task definition. You can write any tasks in PHP.
```php
// Register managed nodes to a role.
Server::node("web1.example.com", "web");
Server::node("web2.example.com", "web");
Server::node("db1.example.com", "db");
// Register a task.
Task::register("deploy", function($task){
$appDir = "/path/to/app";
// Execute parallel processes for each nodes.
$task->exec(function($process) use ($appDir){
// Run a command remotely and get a return code.
if ($process->run("test -d $appDir")->isFailed()) {
$process->run("git clone [email protected]:path/to/app.git $appDir");
} else {
$process->run(array(
"cd $appDir",
"git pull",
));
}
}, array("web"));
});
```
You can run it like below
```Shell
$ altax deploy
[web1.example.com:8550] Run: test -d /var/tmp/altax
[web1.example.com:8550] Run: git clone [email protected]:kpath/to/app.git /path/to/app
Initialized empty Git repository in /path/to/app/.git/
[web2.example.com:8551] Run: test -d /var/tmp/altax
[web3.example.com:8551] Run: git clone [email protected]:kpath/to/app.git /path/to/app
Initialized empty Git repository in /path/to/app/.git/
```
You can get more information at [http://kohkimakimoto.github.io/altax/](http://kohkimakimoto.github.io/altax/).
## Requirement
PHP5.3 or later.
## Installation
I recommend you to install Altax as a phar (PHP Archive) which compiled to single executable file.
Run the below command to get latest version of Altax.
```Shell
$ curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kohkimakimoto/altax/master/installer.sh | bash -s system
```
You will get `altax` command file to `/usr/local/bin` directory. In order to check installation,
execute just `altax` command.
```Shell
$ altax
Altax version 3.0.0
Altax is a extensible deployment tool for PHP.

...
```
## Usage
I describe basic usage in this section.
Run `altax init` command to generate first configuration.
```Shell
$ altax init
Created file: /path/to/your/directory/.altax/config.php
Created file: /path/to/your/directory/.altax/composer.json
Created file: /path/to/your/directory/.altax/.gitignore
```
Created `.altax/config.php` file in your current directory is a main configuration file for altax.
You can modify this file to define tasks and servers you managed.
So now, add the following code in the file.
```php
Task::register("hello", function($task){
$task->writeln("Hello world!");
})->description("This is a first sample task.");
```
This is a simple task definition. Defined task is listed by executing just `altax` command.
```Shell
$ altax
Altax version 3.0.0
Altax is a deployment tool for PHP.
it's designed as a command-line tool for running tasks to remote servers.
Copyright (c) Kohki Makimoto
Apache License 2.0
...
Available commands:
hello This is a first sample task.
...
```
`hello` task you defined can be executed by `altax` command with task name like the followiing.
```Shell
$ altax hello
Hello world!
```
You got a first altax task now!

## Documentation
See [documentation](http://kohkimakimoto.github.io/altax/) page.
## Plugins
Altax has a extensible plugin mechanism. It makes adding functionality easy.
Plugins are stored at [Packagist](https://packagist.org/) and installed using [composer](https://getcomposer.org/).
As Altax includes embedded composer, you can install plugins by altax command.
For instance, if you use PHP5.4 and MySQL database in your product, you can use [Adminer](http://www.adminer.org/) database management tool via Altax plugin.
Edit your `.altax/composer.json` file like the following.
```json
{
"require": {
"kohkimakimoto/altax-adminer": "dev-master"
}
}
```
And run altax update command which is a wrapper command of `composer update` for Altax.
```Shell
$ altax update
```
Adminer altax plugin will be installed in your `.altax/vendor` directory.
In order to register the plugin to your task, add the following line your `.altax/config.php` file.
```php
Task::register('adminer', 'Altax\Contrib\Adminer\Command\AdminerCommand');
```
Run the registered plugin task commnad.
```Shell
$ altax adminer
```
Altax runs adminer on built-in web server. So you can use adminer at `http://localhost:3000/`.
