How to deploy folders and image files using ftp-deploy pipeline

[Marcos Almeida]

Hello,

I am having a happy and also a hard time using Pipelines for the first time. After finally understanding how it works I could deploy my files using ftp-deploy. Yey!

But I could notice that the image files from my Wordpress page were not present in my theme deployment, as well as the custom folders I created, and I was wondering what I need to do to make it work and deploy all the files present in my themes folder.

I tried to use as well the sftp-deploy, but unfortunately my server has some trouble with it, so I decided to use the ftp-deploy.

here is my .yml file
"

pipelines:

branches:

master:

- step:

name: Deploy to production

deployment: production

script:

- pipe: atlassian/ftp-deploy:0.4.0

variables:

USER: $SFTP_USER

PASSWORD: $SFTP_PASSWORD

SERVER: "myserver.com"

REMOTE_PATH: "/my-path/wp-content/themes/my-theme"
"

UPDATE

I could make it work by adding a slash at the end of my remote path

REMOTE_PATH: "/my-path/wp-content/themes/my-theme/"

But it deploys a folder inside of my theme called "build"

How can I deploy without creating that folder.

Also I would like to know how can I make it deploy just the new files I add to my theme, without clearing the fpt and deploying all the files again.


Thanks a lot!

@Marcos Almeida  hi.
"How can I deploy without creating that folder." Try this example:

Copy recursively to the remote server directories and files without source directory build.

script:
  - pipe: atlassian/ftp-deploy:0.4.0
    variables:
      USER: my-ftp-user
      PASSWORD: $FTP_PASSWORD
      SERVER: 127.0.0.1
      REMOTE_PATH: /tmp/my-remote-directory
      LOCAL_PATH: build

"Also I would like to know how can I make it deploy just the new files". Check `lftp mirror` parameters from official man page for your needs.

As far as i know from previous question this is not supported but maybe you will find a solution.

Hey Igor!

Thanks for your answer.

Finally I could solve the troubles of my server and use the pipe: atlassian/rsync-deploy:0.8.1, which works much faster.


Also for the "build" folder, I found that solution after a long search.

LOCAL_PATH: "${BITBUCKET_CLONE_DIR}/"

It takes automagically my local path as I understood. Attention to the slash at the end.

Thanks again (:
