Deploy to the server automatically from master #6

Open Masclins opened 6 years ago

Masclins commented 6 years ago

Description of the wanted situation We need the code from master to be automatically deployed to the server whenever a commit is done there.

Considered alternatives Doing so manually. It would save time and ensure that the server is running the latest version.

For me, this issue is the necessary one before we can merge develop into master and consider tagging a release.

Im nudging it up to Major because of that.

Do we have a server so this can be done?

kenan-rhoton commented 5 years ago

We don't currently have a server, no, what options are we willing to try?

Masclins commented 5 years ago

Any that costs me less than 20€/year (I'm assuming we would split the costs that might exist)

There are four options, i think:

  1. Self-hosting on a machine we buy (which could be a cheap Raspberry)
  2. Getting some typical hosting service (like OVH, GoDaddy or whatever kids use these days)
  3. Amazon/Google/Azure type hosting
  4. Going full into functional territory like we tried with AWS Lambda

In my opinion option 1 is a big hassle (especially if something breaks), and option 4 is very very cool but also not as simple to setup as we would like (especially for automatic deploys).

I would rank them as 4 > 3 > 2 > 1 in order of "correctness" and as 2 > 3 > 1 > 4 in terms of "how easy it is to set up".

In terms of price it's probably 4 > 2 > 1 > 3 from cheapest to most expensive. (although after a few years number 1 becomes the cheapest unless this project explodes into a million users and forces us to go for number 4)
