Dos and powershell scripts for batch deployment of PHP files with the putty utility for secure file transfers (psftp)
- psftp - putty utility - Windows Client side;
- powershell - Windows Client side;
-
In the header of modified files, in the creation or modification section, indicate the batch id. This string may be date of modification and the initials of the developer separated by the underscore and followed by a sequential number (the number sequential is optional), for example: 2020-07-31_VF_01. It's this batch id which is reported in the header deployment script. Research on the application directory for files containing this batch identifier allows to select the files to deploy. In fact, any chain of character used one or more times in the file to be deployed will work, but it is recommended to use this standard.
-
From DOS Shell, we run the following commands to generate the DOS batch files using secure transfer with the psftp utility by putty, then, we execute:
gen_deployment.bat
deployment.bat- If necessary, backtrack by executing the ROLLBACK : script_ROLLBACK.scr. The .bak files on the server always match the version before the last deployment.
