How to Auto-Deploy a Laravel App to DigitalOcean Using GitHub Actions
The article explains how to automate the deployment of a Laravel application to a DigitalOcean Droplet using GitHub Actions. It outlines a CI/CD workflow that triggers deployment upon pushing changes to the main branch. The process includes pulling code, installing dependencies, building assets, running migrations, and optimizing the Laravel application.
- ▪The deployment workflow uses GitHub Actions to automatically deploy a Laravel app when changes are pushed to the main branch.
- ▪A deploy script is added to package.json to execute a sequence of commands including git pull, dependency installation, asset building, and Laravel optimization.
- ▪SSH access and secrets stored in GitHub are used to securely connect to the DigitalOcean Droplet and run deployment commands.
- ▪The guide recommends using a dedicated deploy user for security, though it uses the root user for simplicity.
- ▪Proper database backup and migration testing are emphasized before running production deployments.
