This tool can be used to deploy a YetaWF site to a server or just a local folder for deployment using other tools. The DeploySite utility is necessary because Visual Studio Publish and dotnet publish are insufficient to deploy a YetaWF site. YetaWF uses symlinks heavily which can't be deployed by other tools.
DeploySite is a command line tool. In order to use it, the application must first be built as the YetaWF repositories do not include executables.
Navigate to the YetaWF repository folder ./PublicTools/DeploySite and run the following:
build.bat
This creates the following executable (for Windows):
.\PublicTools\DeploySite\bin\Windows\Softelvdm.DeploySite.exe
./build.sh
This creates the following executable (for Linux):
./PublicTools/DeploySite/bin/Linux/Softelvdm.DeploySite
DeploySite is used from the command line:
Softelvdm.DeploySite {Backup|Restore} yamlfile [{Blue|Green}]| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Backup | Defines that the site is backed up (from the current development system) using the definitions found in yamlfile, so it can later be deployed. |
| Restore | Defines that the site is restored, i.e. deployed on the current system using the definitions found in yamlfile. |
| yamlfile | Defines a yaml file that contains all the definitions to deploy a site (see DeploySite yaml File). |
| Blue,Green | Optional. Defines whether a Blue or Green site is deployed using Blue/Green deployment (see Deploying to a Server (FTP, Blue/Green)). |
DeploySite is used in these most common deployment cases:
Deploying to a Folder
Deploying to a ZIP file
Deploying to a Server (FTP)
Deploying to a Server (FTP, Blue/Green)
Deploying to a Server (FTP, Automatic Blue/Green)
Deploying a Docker Container
