How can I use SSH in Bitbucket Pipelines to update files in server?

Question

Hi Guys!

I'm struggling to make pipeline to work. I just want Bitbucket simply update the changes to my server.

I already installed git in my server. I can ony access my server via ssh. I also already included my Host address in SSH Keys, and Fingerprint is already being displayed.

Here is my current yml configuration:

# Check our guides at https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/e8YWN for more examples.
# Only use spaces to indent your .yml configuration.
# -----
# You can specify a custom docker image from Docker Hub as your build environment.
image: samueldebruyn/debian-git

pipelines:
default:
- step:
script:
- apt-get update
- apt-get -qq install git-ftp
- git ftp init --user $FTP_USERNAME --passwd $FTP_PASSWORD ftp://123.45.678.901/site.com/

Are the informations correct? What I'm missing?

I just want to update my server once I commit and push the files to bitbucket.

Can you guys help me?

Hi @Shane Fast

Thanks for your response once again.

Sorry for my many questions, I'm really a beginner on this.

Regarding this line: echo $MY_SSH_KEY

Should I include the SSH public key (a really big number), or should I use this variable ($MY_SSH_KEY) as it is?

Yes, based on the info you provided that appears to be the correct command. as for id_rsa - its just the standard name for the key file. You can name it whatever you want as long as its the same name as the command preceeding it: - umask 077 - echo $MY_SSH_KEY | base64 --decode > ~/.ssh/ - scp -i ~/.ssh/ -P ..... Saving it into the .ssh directory and using umask 077 are required for setting the correct permissions on the key file. Without the correct permissions on the key file any remote commands or transfers will be rejected for built in security reasons.
