## Install shipit command line tools and shipit-deploy in your project

```
npm install --save-dev shipit-cli
npm install --save-dev shipit-deploy
```

Shipit is an automation engine and a deployment tool.

Shipit provides a good alternative to Capistrano or other build tools. It is easy to deploy or to automate simple tasks on your remote servers.

**Features:**

- Write your task using JavaScript
- Task flow based on [orchestrator](https://github.com/orchestrator/orchestrator)
- Login and interactive SSH commands
- Easily extendable

## Deploy using Shipit

1. Create a `shipitfile.js` at the root of your project

```js
// shipitfile.js
module.exports = shipit => {
// Load shipit-deploy tasks
require('shipit-deploy')(shipit)

shipit.initConfig({
default: {
deployTo: '/var/apps/super-project',
repositoryUrl: 'https://github.com/user/super-project.git',
},
staging: {
servers: '[email protected]',
},
})
}
```

2. Run deploy command using [npx](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npx): `npx shipit staging deploy`

3. You can rollback using `npx shipit staging rollback`

## Recipes

### Copy config file

Add a custom task in your `shipitfile.js` and run `copyToRemote`.

```js
// shipitfile.js
module.exports = shipit => {
/* ... */

shipit.task('copyConfig', async () => {
await shipit.copyToRemote(
'config.json',
'/var/apps/super-project/config.json',
)
})
}
```

### Use events

You can add custom event and listen to events.

```js
shipit.task('build', function() {
// ...
shipit.emit('built')
})

shipit.on('built', function() {
shipit.start('start-server')
})
```

Shipit emits the `init` event once initialized, before any tasks are run.

### Use Babel in your `shipitfile.js`

Instead of using a `shipitfile.js`, use `shipitfile.babel.js`:

```js
// shipitfile.babel.js
export default shipit => {
shipit.initConfig({
/* ... */
})
}
```

### Customizing environments

You can overwrite all default variables defined as part of the `default` object:

```js
module.exports = shipit => {
shipit.initConfig({
default: {
branch: 'dev',
},
staging: {
servers: 'staging.myproject.com',
workspace: '/home/vagrant/website'
},
production: {
servers: [{
host: 'app1.myproject.com',
user: 'john',
}, {
host: 'app2.myproject.com',
user: 'rob',
}],
branch: 'production',
workspace: '/var/www/website'
}
});

...
shipit.task('pwd', function () {
return shipit.remote('pwd');
});
...
};
```

### Asynchronous config

If you can't call `shipit.initConfig(...)` right away because
you need to get data asynchronously to do so, you can return
a promise from the module:

```js
module.exports = async shipit => {
const servers = await getServers()
shipit.initConfig({
production: {
servers: servers,
// ...
},
})
}
```

## Usage

```
Usage: shipit

Options:

-V, --version output the version number
--shipitfile Specify a custom shipitfile to use
--require Script required before launching Shipit
--tasks List available tasks
--environments List available environments
-h, --help output usage information
```

### Global configuration

#### ignores

Type: `Array`

List of files excluded in `copyFromRemote` or `copyToRemote` methods.

#### key

Type: `String`

Path to SSH key.

#### servers

Type: `String` or `Array`

The server can use the shorthand syntax or an object:

- `user@host`: user and host
- `user@host:4000`: user, host and port
- `{ user, host, port, extraSshOptions }`: an object

### Shipit Deploy configuration

#### asUser

Type: `String`

Allows you to ‘become’ another user, different from the user that logged into the machine (remote user).

#### deleteOnRollback

Type: `Boolean`, default to `false`

Delete release when a rollback is done.

#### deployTo

Type: `String`

Directory where the code will be deployed on remote servers.

#### keepReleases

Type: `Number`

Number of releases kept on remote servers.

#### repositoryUrl

Type: `String`

Repository URL to clone, must be defined using `https` or `git+ssh` format.

#### shallowClone

Type: `Boolean`, default `true`

Clone only the last commit of the repository.

#### workspace

Type: `String`

If `shallowClone` is set to `false`, this directory will be used to clone the repository before deploying it.

#### verboseSSHLevel

Type: `Number`, default `0`

SSH verbosity level to use when connecting to remote servers. **0** (none), **1** (-v), **2** (-vv), **3** (-vvv).

### API

#### shipit.task(name, [deps], fn)

Create a new Shipit task. If a promise is returned task will wait for completion.

```js
shipit.task('hello', async () => {
await shipit.remote('echo "hello on remote"')
await shipit.local('echo "hello from local"')
})
```

#### shipit.blTask(name, [deps], fn)

Create a new Shipit task that will block other tasks during its execution. If a promise is returned other task will wait before start.

```js
shipit.blTask('hello', async () => {
await shipit.remote('echo "hello on remote"')
await shipit.local('echo "hello from local"')
})
```

#### shipit.start(tasks)

Run Shipit tasks.

```js
shipit.start('task')
shipit.start('task1', 'task2')
shipit.start(['task1', 'task2'])
```

#### shipit.local(command, [options])

Run a command locally and streams the result. See [ssh-pool#exec](https://github.com/shipitjs/shipit/tree/master/packages/ssh-pool#exec).

```js
shipit
.local('ls -lah', {
cwd: '/tmp/deploy/workspace',
})
.then(({ stdout }) => console.log(stdout))
.catch(({ stderr }) => console.error(stderr))
```

#### shipit.remote(command, [options])

Run a command remotely and streams the result. See [ssh-pool#connection.run](https://github.com/shipitjs/shipit/tree/master/packages/ssh-pool#connectionruncommand-options).

```js
shipit
.remote('ls -lah')
.then(([server1Result, server2Result]) => {
console.log(server1Result.stdout)
console.log(server2Result.stdout)
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error.stderr)
})
```

#### shipit.copyToRemote(src, dest, [options])

Make a remote copy from a local path to a remote path. See [ssh-pool#connection.copyToRemote](https://github.com/shipitjs/shipit/tree/master/packages/ssh-pool#connectioncopytoremotesrc-dest-options).

```js
shipit.copyToRemote('/tmp/workspace', '/opt/web/myapp')
```

#### shipit.copyFromRemote(src, dest, [options])

Make a remote copy from a remote path to a local path. See [ssh-pool#connection.copyFromRemote](https://github.com/shipitjs/shipit/tree/master/packages/ssh-pool#connectioncopyfromremotesrc-dest-options).

```js
shipit.copyFromRemote('/opt/web/myapp', '/tmp/workspace')
```

#### shipit.log(...args)

Log using Shipit, same API as `console.log`.

```js
shipit.log('hello %s', 'world')
```
