How to push modifications on website

[Francois Grondin]

Hi,

I'm new to this platform and I'm trying to figure out things, but I can't find something. 

I make some changes in the code, hire, but those changes don't appear on the live website. Do I have to push them once I saved them? If yes, how do I do it?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Francois and welcome to the community!

If you are hosting a website on another provider, then yes, you will need to copy/deploy the website's source code to this server. This is typically done with a CI/CD tool and the way you push depends on what that server supports (it might be ftp, sftp, scp, rsync).

Bitbucket offers such a CI/CD tool, it's called Pipelines:

• https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/build-test-and-deploy-with-pipelines/

You can use Bitbucket Pipelines either on Atlassian's infrastructure, or if you have a server where you can run builds, you can use a self-hosted runner:

• https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/runners/

If you use Pipelines on Atlassian's infrastructure or with a self-hosted Linux Docker runner, you can use one of the pipes to deploy (depending on what is possible with the hosting server):

• https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/rsync-deploy/src/master/
• https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/sftp-deploy/src/master/
• https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/scp-deploy/src/master/
• https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/ftp-deploy/src/master/

If you use a Linux Shell, MacOS, or Windows runner, the builds will run on Bash (Linux Shell and MacOS) or PowerShell (Windows) on the host machine. So, any tools you need to use (e.g. rsync, ftp, scp, etc) need to be installed on the runner's host machine.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Kind regards,
