Create a Staging Process / Site #146

Closed pete-gov closed 3 years ago

pete-gov commented 3 years ago

The moment the beta site is in used for real, we can no longer #yolodeploy to it - we need to have a process that copies the underlying data into a staging environment to test deploys and upgrades on.

Will flesh this out as I move forward on it, but for now a skeleton is:

[x] deploy staging scaffolding
[x] create process to snapshot prod and attach it to staging
[x] work with auth folks to get that set up with auth or an alternative to prevent rando access

In progress on this, expecting to have initial version Tue or Wed morning.

I think I have this entire process scripted out but need some minor auth changes from Nick (requested via PM).

In the current implementation, staging is a weird hybrid setup where it's using separate everything from prod except for the same nginx proxy that everyone else is using - hopefully we'll be making that obsolete before it matters.

Staging deployment process is completed and verified. Posting instructions in internal doc.

Do note that this process will need to be updated when the beta site is moved to a managed database.
