I just need a simple guide on how to setup SSH continuous deployment with a self hosted Drone CI. Is it possible to do that? I know that Drone.io offers continuous deployment in many ways (SSH, Heroku, AppEngine, Amazon S3 ...etc) but what about self hosted Drone CI?
I found that self hosted Drone is awesome enough to have a Go plugin that supports Continuous Deployment. It's really simple as this:
deploy:
bash:
script:
- bundle exec cap deploy:update

I've installed minikube in github codespaces, and that works fantastic! With this setup I'm able to port forward any application running in minikube and reach it with the url generated by github codespaces.
Problem
I'd like to use github actions to deploy an app into the minikube cluster that runs in github codespaces.
Question
Is it possible, if so the how to do it?
It toured out that it is possible. There are 2 ways that you could solve this problem.
Push based
Start GitHub codespace with minikube installed in it.
Install and configure GitHub's self hosted runner in GitHub Codespaces.
Configure and start GitHub's self hosted runner in GitHub Codespace - preferably you should run self hosted runner as a service
Run your GitHub's Actions on self hosted runners
jobs:
build:
runs-on:
labels:
- self-hosted
- self-hosted-runner-label
Pull based
Start GitHub Codespace with minikube installed in it.
Install ArgoCD in minikube
Point ArgoCD towards your GitHub repository
Use GitHub Actions to generate new k8s manifests files
I have an application which I want to deploy to a number of VMS on Azure and AWS, I was working with Azure DevOps before and it provided very nice features to achieve this with deployment groups etc. Now I want to work with Github and I am really having problems to design my CI CD pipeline since Github actions do not have any feature which could be used to do deployment on a set of VMS. If there are please guys share your thoughts any article would be appreciated. Thanks
You can firstly consider to deploy application to one Virtual Machine with Github Actions.
Just in the environment of Azure, all you need is to use GitHub Action to build a virtual machine (VM) within Azure.
you can learn the detailed steps to deploy application to one Virtual Machine with Github Actions in：How to use GitHub Actions to deploy an Azure Virtual Machine.
For multi-environment deployments either in Azure or AWS with GitHub Actions, I recommend you to use Octopus Deploy as a reference. you can still refer to Multi-environment deployments with GitHub Actions and Octopus to deploy Virtual Machine on AWS.
For
deploy application to multiple Vms
We recommend you to use Azure Batch to run parallel workloads. It can allow you to deploy application to multiple Vms at one time in batch in the basic of deploy application to one Virtual Machine.
You can run the batch job using Azure CLI by following the example: Run Batch job with the Azure CLI.
I am new to terraform and I want set up a CI/CD pipeline to GCP with github to replace a current system that use's jenkins, as we want to increase automation of deployments. What would be the best way or architecture to do this.
One of the primary products related to CI/CD is Google's Cloud Build.
https://cloud.google.com/build
It's one liner reads:
Build, test, and deploy on our serverless CI/CD platform.
It has built in triggers that include GitHub integration meaning that when events occur on GitHub, Cloud Build runs its prescribed recipes.
I'd suggest reading the documenation found at the above page and also correlate against the curated documentation found on GCP Weekly here:

I am trying to use AWS CodeBuild for building my code from github. These are the steps I followed so far,
1) Created a windows docker image with all the pre-req software
needed (git, npm, node.js etc) and pushed to Amazon ECS.
2)Created a project in AWS CodeBuild using
a) github as the source (What to build)
b) docker image created in Step 1 (How to build)
I setup buildspec.yml as below:
env:
#variables:
#parameter-store:
phases:
#install:
#pre_build:
build:
commands:
- git clone https://github.com/OrgName/RepName.git "c:\www\localfolder"
#post_build:
#artifacts:
#files:
But this is always failing during DOWNLOAD_SOURCE STEP saying "CodeBuild is experiencing Issues"
Please suggest how to setup buildspec.yml for github clone\fetch\checkout purpose.
Thanks.
The issue you encountered may not be related to git clone\fetch\checkout failure. The build could also fail at "DOWNLOAD_SOURCE" step if CodeBuild failed/timed out when pulling the Windows Docker image; especially when the image is large.
Workarounds you can try:
1) use the windows image provided by CodeBuild and install the pre-req software during the install phase. (you will need to update your buildspec.yml)
OR
2) use a BUILD_GENERAL1_LARGE instance. maybe you will need to increase the timeout too.
I need suggestion for continuous integrations and deployment of some of my django project. Codeship and heroku r perfect. But I want to deploy their feature on my hosting. I got Jenkins but still needed heroku replacement. Please suggest me to find currect apps.
