PHPloy

Version 5.0.0

PHPloy is an incremental Git FTP and SFTP deployment tool. By keeping track of the state of the remote server(s) it deploys only the files that were committed since the last deployment. PHPloy supports submodules, sub-submodules, deploying to multiple servers and rollbacks. PHPloy requires PHP 8.0+ (PHP 8.2+ for development/testing) and Git 1.8+.

What's New in 5.0.0

• Improved File Structure: Better organized codebase with clear separation of concerns
• Flysystem 3.0 Upgrade: Enhanced file system abstraction with latest Flysystem version
• Modern Testing Suite:
  • Replaced legacy Vagrant setup with Docker Compose
  • Migrated from PHPUnit to Pest PHP for more expressive tests
  • Added FTP and SFTP test servers for comprehensive integration testing
• Code Quality Tools:
  • PSR-12 coding standards enforcement
  • Static analysis with PHPStan
  • Automated code style fixing

How it works

PHPloy stores a file called .revision on your server. This file contains the hash of the commit that you have deployed to that server. When you run phploy, it downloads that file and compares the commit reference in it with the commit you are trying to deploy to find out which files to upload. PHPloy also stores a .revision file for each submodule in your repository.

Install

Via Composer

If you have composer installed in your machine, you can pull PHPloy globally like this:

Make sure to place the $HOME/.composer/vendor/bin directory (or the equivalent directory for your OS) in your $PATH so the PHPloy executable can be located by your system.

Via Phar Archive

You can install PHPloy via a phar archive:

1. Download: Get the latest phploy.phar from our releases page

2. Install:

   • Globally: Move to /usr/local/bin/phploy and make executable:

   • Locally: Move to your project directory and use as:

Usage

When using PHPloy locally, proceed the command with php

1. Run phploy --init in the terminal to create the phploy.ini file or create one manually.
2. Run phploy in terminal to deploy.

Windows Users: Installing PHPloy globally on Windows

phploy.ini

The phploy.ini file holds your project configuration. It should be located in the root directory of the project. phploy.ini is never uploaded to server. Check the sample below for all available options:

If your password is missing in the phploy.ini file or the PHPLOY_PASS environment variable, PHPloy will interactively ask you for your password. There is also an option to store the user and password in a file called .phploy.

This feature is especially useful if you would like to share your phploy.ini via Git but hide your password from the public.

You can also use environment variables to deploy without storing your credentials in a file. These variables will be used if they do not exist in the phploy.ini file:

These variables can be used like this;

Or export them like this, the script will automatically use them:

Multiple servers

PHPloy allows you to configure multiple servers in the deploy file and deploy to any of them with ease.

By default PHPloy will deploy to ALL specified servers. Alternatively, if an entry named 'default' exists in your server configuration, PHPloy will default to that server configuration. To specify one single server, run:

phploy -s servername

or:

phploy --server servername

servername stands for the name you have given to the server in the phploy.ini configuration file.

If you have a 'default' server configured, you can specify to deploy to all configured servers by running:

phploy --all

Shared configuration (custom defaults)

If you specify a server configuration named *, all options configured in this section will be shared with other servers. This basically allows you to inject custom default values.

Rollbacks

Warning: the --rollback option does not currently update your submodules correctly.

PHPloy allows you to roll back to an earlier version when you need to. Rolling back is very easy.

To roll back to the previous commit, you just run:

phploy --rollback

To roll back to whatever commit you want, you run:

phploy --rollback commit-hash-goes-here

When you run a rollback, the files in your working copy will revert temporarily to the version of the rollback you are deploying. When the deployment has finished, everything will go back as it was.

Note that there is not a short version of --rollback.

Listing changed files

PHPloy allows you to see what files are going to be uploaded/deleted before you actually push them. Just run:

phploy -l

Or:

phploy --list

Updating or "syncing" the remote revision

If you want to update the .revision file on the server to match your current local revision, run:

phploy --sync

If you want to set it to a previous commit revision, just specify the revision like this:

phploy --sync your-revision-hash-here

Creating deployment directory on first deploy

If the deployment directory does not exits, you can instruct PHPloy to create it for you:

phploy --force

Manual fresh upload

If you want to do a fresh upload, even if you have deployed earlier, use the --fresh argument like this:

phploy --fresh

Submodules

Submodules are supported, but are turned off by default since you don't expect them to change very often and you only update them once in a while. To run a deployment with submodule scanning, add the --submodules parameter to the command:

phploy --submodules

Purging

In many cases, we need to purge the contents of a directory after a deployment. This can be achieved by specifying the directories in phploy.ini like this:

; relative to the deployment path
purge[] = "cache/"

To purge a directory before deployment, specify the directories in phploy.ini like this:

; relative to the deployment path
purge-before[] = "dist/"

Hooks

PHPloy allows you to execute commands before and after the deployment. For example you can use wget call a script on my server to execute a composer update.

; To execute before deployment
pre-deploy[] = "wget http://staging-example.com/pre-deploy/test.php --spider --quiet"
; To execute after deployment
post-deploy[] = "wget http://staging-example.com/post-deploy/test.php --spider --quiet"

Logging

PHPloy supports simple logging of the activity. Logging is saved in a phploy.log file in your project in the following format:

2016-03-28 08:12:37+02:00 --- INFO: [SHA: 59a387c26641f731df6f0d1098aaa86cd55f4382] Deployment to server: "default" from branch "master". 2 files uploaded; 0 files deleted.

To turn logging on, add this to phploy.ini:

[production]
    logger = on
